I quickly learned of the battle between Bryan and Bella…. every time they see each other its a race to who can kiss the others nose first without the other dodging it. This day, Bryan was the sure winner!!
While the guys got ready they were all set with pre-wedding nachos and beer to ease the nerves and quench their thirst on the very HOT sunny day!
The Ceremony took place on the 10th Tee at Aliso Viejo Country Club which included four flower girls, two ring bearers, all who were nieces and nephews. The Reception are was lit with draping market lights and the April stars. Once the dancing started, the DJ’s colorful lights lit up the night sky. Part way through the night, the guests were treated with a yummy S’mores bar and photobooth as the night’s celebrations continued.
To top off a wonderful day Bryan and Bella left with a sparkler exit finale to see them on their way to Honeymoon in Maui! #justmauid
Bryan and Bella, you two have been such a joy to get to know. You two balance each other so well and the uncontrollable smiles are a true sign of love and happiness. Thank you for letting me in on your inside jokes, letting me witness your love story and choosing me as your wedding photographer.

Typically receptions at Aliso Viejo Country Club are held upstairs in the banquet room but I’m so glad that Bryan and Bella decided to have their reception on the lawn. The view of the hills and setting sun were the perfect ambiance as they toasted and celebrated the night away.
Big thanks to this amazing team of vendors!!

I’m so lucky to be this goofy girl’s mama. She is so full of energy, dancing and singing and her giggles are addictive! You’re my beautiful, wonderful, magical girl. We love you so much Cali Rae ☀️💕
This wedding was so dreamy - the soft color pallet paired so perfectly against the terracotta of Rancho Las Lomas.

Finally got this gorgeous wedding up on the blog! Justine and Caden were supposed to have their wedding at Casa Romantica in San Clemente but when the landslides closed the property for a while they were able to switch venues to the Laguna Cliffs Marriott in Dana Point. I’m so glad they did and were able to have such a beautiful day!
