you might remember the gorgeous couple we photographed last year, kate and rich--i think we could literally feel their love for each other through their engagement pictures. we were so excited for their wedding, which was held in august at azul restaurant in la jolla. The restaurant has amazing views of the la jolla cove, but the views were nothing compared to how beautiful kate looked. geneene from celebrations event planning helped pull all the details together to make everything look perfect, and she was a ton of fun to work with.
as the girls were getting ready, the guys were relaxing at the beach, hanging out, looking cool-- boy, if only the guys knew how much effort it takes to get wedding-day perfect!
kate's wedding dress was so beautiful, elegant and simple at the same time, matched her personality just perfectly.
kate chose vibrant purples for her bridesmaids, which really popped in the bouquets...
the ceremony was held in the courtyard, which was transformed with beautiful flowers...
kate looked radiant during the ceremony...
james got these very cool shots by hanging from the ceiling in the courtyard...no, really he was just upstairs looking down on them...
the cake was simply decorated with beautiful rose petals and orchids...
we couldn't get enough pictures of kate (sorry rich!)...
during the reception the toasts were pretty funny, especially the one from rich's dad...
after the reception, we headed down to the beach, in an attempt to beat the sweltering heat and humidity (yes, we do have humidity in san diego). we stopped for a quick kiss at la valencia hotel, one of the most picturesque places in san diego.
the bridal party braved the heat and joined us for a few pics, before they had to catch their flights home...
and now a few of kate and rich, enjoying each other's company after a very long (and early!) day...
kate was ready to jump right in the water, and james was ready to get the shot, but since they had to catch a flight later that day, kate and rich opted to wade in, just getting their feet wet. do i hear a trash the dress shot on the next trip to san diego? we'll keep our thanksgiving weekend open for you again :)
we had such a great time with you and your family and friends, thank you for letting us be part of your very special day and for allowing us to capture all the love between you.
