Tara + Eric

Tara & Eric are awesome… from exchanging sweet notes and gifts before the ceremony to dancing and kissing all around downtown San Diego, these two were pretty adorable everywhere they went. In addition to the cuteness, they are also incredibly sweet and crazy in love and we felt so lucky to be part of their wedding! Thanks Tara & Eric! We wish you all the best in the future and we hope you do have the 10 or 12 kids Eric’s dad wants you to have!

Christine + Christian

We agree with Christine's father - with such similar names, Christine & Christian must be a great match! :) In all seriousness though, these two are one of the sweetest couples ever and are perfect for each other! We had so much fun at their wedding and wish them all the best in the years to come! In addition to working with such a great couple, we got to work with so many friends – Susanne, Keli and the rest of the team from Crown Weddings, Pam & Lauren from Pam Scott Photography (and Platinum Pro), Bethany and her team from My Splendid Sentiments and Spencer from Mobile Music Plus! To top it off we always love to celebrate at the Del where we’ve had so many wonderful memories with family and friends!

Laura & James first met when Laura included James in a round of drinks she bought for her friends at a restaurant. And so, it was only fitting that they took "I Do Do" shots at the end of their ceremony! The celebrating continued late into the night with belly dancers, more toasts and lots and lots of dancing. We especially loved when Laura kept teasing James with the first bite of cake!

Thanks Laura & James for including us in your amazing day - we wish you two the best! Cheers!!

Two unique people and one unique wedding calls for a very unique video! Our friends had an amazing wedding day full of unicorns and monkeys, heartfelt vows, a parade, and a whole lot more! We have to admit, when we heard that Mike hadn't written down his vows we were a bit nervous... but we were soon blown away by some of the most emotional, well-spoken vows we have ever heard! Suzanne & Mike - Congrats! We couldn't be happier for the two of you!

A couple of the moments from their wedding deserved their own video so be sure to check out the two 30 second outtakes below their highlight film!

Jess + Brian

It is really exciting for us to share this emotional piece from Jess & Brian’s wedding! Having been friends before dating, they share a truly intimate connection and we are so excited for their future together! Some of our favorite moments were at the beach with the couple and the bridal party before the reception. And, of course the birds – we loved the birds! And Jess’ dress & veil… And Father Lawrence’s ability to make everyone in the room laugh… Obviously we could go on and on, so you should probably just watch it! Cheers Jess & Brian!

Dana + Sage

The word ‘quixotic’ means: 1. Resembling or befitting Don Quixote; 2. Extravagantly chivalrous or romantic; visionary; 3. Idealistic without regard to practicality. This wedding pretty much covers all that… From the beautiful, heartfelt vows to all the men at the reception serenading the bride with "you've lost that loving feeling" at the end of the night, this wedding was truly an experience to be part of and one that we will not soon forget!! Thanks to all the talented vendors involved: Creative Affairs, Audra Rene Studios, SheWanders Photography, Root 75, Robert Stevens (Officiant), and of course a special thanks to DJ Mike Hogan for getting all the guys out on the dance floor for that magical serenade!

Shelley + Darren

We were so excited to travel to Alberta, Canada for Shelley and Darren’s wedding! From getting ready at the historic Fairmont hotel to dancing in front of old billboards after the ceremony to a candle-lit reception in an airplane hangar, this wedding was truly amazing! Shelley and Darren planned and designed everything that went into the day, including the airplane ornaments that Darren made at his metal fabrication company. And while all these details came together to make their wedding beautiful, it was Shelley and Darren’s emotion and love for each other that made this day truly special.
