Cheryl + Chad got married in a beautiful park in Dana Point and had their reception at a cute little cottage in San Clemente. Here’s a few of my faves:

Ceremony: Latern Bay Park Dana Point
Reception: Historic Cottage in San Clemente

Love this shot of the guys by my 2nd shooter Jeret.

Lantern Bay Park:

Really cool ceremony details.

Practicing their dance.

Successful at their actual dance!

Jamie + Jaime have the same name and great smiles. And that’s why we love them! We got to spend extra time with them with two fun engagements: Here and Here. Jamie was also in Lindsey’s wedding and Lindsey was in hers!

Ceremony: St Matthews Church
Reception: The Mission Inn

Jamie was one of the happiest brides I’ve ever seen! She was grinning from ear to ear all day.

Love shooting in St. Matthews. Lots of light and lots to work with.

This was one of my favorite weddings ever, shot at Ponte Winery. It was a super easy relaxed day with just the right amount of time for pictures, everyone was easy going, gorgeous and happy! It was very sweet and emotional. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed or cried as much as I did at this wedding. It was extremely hard to choose pictures for the blog; I hope I did it justice!

Lindsey and Patrick are beautiful on the outside and inside.

Hello blue eyes!

Good looking wedding party.

Reception details.

First dance.

I just love this of Lindsey and her dad.

Lindsey’s grandma and grandpa.

The groom is a twin so there were 3 sets of twins at this wedding, so of course there needed to be a dance off! I’m obsessed with twins and dancing so when the two combine- I’m ecstatic!! I love how all the twins are in similar positions to each other. The girls won by a landslide!

One of the twins before the dance off.

Lindsey’s mom surprised them with an old car.

A few details from Lindsey + Patrick’s wedding at Ponte Winery in Temecula. Flowers by Leigh Johnson at Posies Flowers.

Patrick surprised Lindsey with a sweet note attached to her bouquet. Lindsey added some details to her two sister’s bouquets.

Their reception details were so fun. Lots of candy, cookies from a bakery in San Francisco, paper lanterns, pink and black. I loved that they made a recipe book with their engagement pictures! They also displayed a few other engagement pictures in vintage frames hung from a vintage room separator.
