Anna & Michael | Canary Hotel, Santa Barbara CA

Their love story is a bit of a whirlwind. They met just months before their wedding and didn't have much time to plan before Michael's military job took them to a whole new state. But with the help of First Pick Planning, they were able to pull off a gorgeous wedding in no time! I am doing something a little different with this blog- going backwards! We are going to start off with Anna & Michael's reception! Be sure to check back next week for the photos from the first half of the day!

love when couples incorporate fun ideas to dismiss tables to dinner

if you look closely, you might be able to see Martin of Waveform Events in his natural environment...

their unique sweetheart table was gorgeous

they had a flan and churro station to compliment their mexican food buffet! 

They shared their first dance right before the sunset. I love the way her dress captured the light!

Kari & Peter | LDS Temple, Santa Monica CA

No they are not models, yes they are a real couple! These two tied the knot back in May. Their ceremony was inside this gorgeous LDS Temple in Santa Monica, and we got to take lots of pretty pictures afterwards. Their reception was simply stunning, held in her parents backyard that had the most gorgeous view.
