Melissa and Brian had the most beautiful wedding on St. Patrick’s Day! Everything was planned and carried off perfectly. What I love about Melissa and Brian is that they have so much energy and enthusiasm! You can tell they love each other so much. Everyone was happy just being around them.
The ceremony was at Grace Lutheran Church and the reception at the fabulous Prado in Balboa Park. The wedding was actually pretty late in the day but that made for some fun playing around with the bride and groom photos, some almost in the dark. So without further delay here are some pics from their wedding day! And to see their slideshow click here. Melissa and Brian thanks so much for letting me be a part of your wedding day :) Hope you guys are having a great time in New Zealand!

Melissa wore the most beautiful Pronovias dress.

And her equisite hair and make were done by Ellie at A New Twist. I’ve worked with Ellie many, many times and her work is amazing!

It would be hard for someone to take a bad pic of Melissa!



The wedding party travelled back and forth in a trolley.


Jenn Smith of Simply Savvy Events did an amazing job with the entire wedding.

It was so fun shooting some pics after dark. Melissa and Brian did a great job of planning their day and allowing plenty of time for the couple’s pics that are so much fun!


Hmmm….have I said I love first dance pics before?

There was lots of love for everyone at this wedding!

The cake cutting got a little messy.

What would a wedding be without the bride and bridesmaids doing shots?
Gorgeous!! I can’t even pick a fave because I love them all!
