We have been DYING to share this wedding with you all & we are SO EXCITED that we finally can! Mindy & Brian’s wedding over Valentine’s Day weekend was our first of the 2010 season and what a way to start off the year – an amazing couple, an amazing location, amazing vendors and an amazing coordinator (our truly fabulous friend, Megan Fickling of La Partie Events) to bring the day together. Did I mention that the day was amazing? We were thrilled to hear that Martha Stewart Weddings wanted to feature this wedding on their website even if it meant keeping this post in our back pocket for awhile. You can check out the MSW feature here (be sure to click on the photo gallery for all the goodies) and since we’ve made Mindy & Brian wait for ages for this post, we’ll get right to the photos! Enjoy!

Brian is a real live rocket scientist, so it was only appropriate that their officiant (Brian’s uncle) had all their guests count down from 10 for the big kiss!

Mindy surprised Brian with a performance by the USC Marching Band – They totally rocked!
Mindy & Brian, Thanks so much for starting our season off on such a high! We hope this post was worth the wait!
We met up with Marisa & Steven and their adorable dog, Dopey, for a fun session at the ultra-fab Viceroy Hotel in Santa Monica. An overcast day may have made us ditch our plans for the beach, but with such a cool location as this, who needs the beach anyway?!
Here are some of our favorites from the afternoon:
We had a feeling that Erica and Wally’s wedding at The Sunset Restaurant would be filled with lots of happy love, great music and amazing outfits. We were right! Erica looked lovely in her Nicole Miller gown, Wally was handsome in his Theory suit, and there was wonderful music all day by Erica’s brother, Bruce, as well as by Brasilidade by Brazilian Nites. Such a fun day watching Erica and Wally smile from ear to ear!
Meghan & Derek are incredibly sweet people. Pair that with some amazing light in one of our favorite Pasadena alleys and we were destined to have an awesome engagement session. Meghan is super fun & flirty, Derek does the calm, cool & collected perfectly and together they are just warm, fuzzy goodness! It was hard to choose, but here are some of our favorites:
Meghan saw this wall with the word “Love” painted on it & pointed it out to us for a photo. We love when our clients are inspired!
Meghan & Derek – Thanks for such a fun session! We can’t wait to do it all over again in just a few months!
