Marry Your Best Friend

Kathryn and Chris had know each other for eighteen years before getting married. This couple deeply valued the differences in each other while forming a lasting friendship that turned into a great love story. They had a rich history together that made their ceremony even more meaningful. I performed their beautiful wedding at The Smog Shoppe. Tucked inside succulent patio with circular seating, this wedding was warm and lovely. And it is always a pleasure to work with BASH PLEASE, one of the best wedding planning companies in Los Angeles.

Sunshine, style and bubbles at The Fig House in Highland Park.

May is always my busiest time of year! This year was no exception. 

Magdalena & Mike were both creative designers! It showed from the second I walked into The Fig House!  A great place for a reception and wedding.

From their trendy bridesmaid dresses, to the beautiful flowers, to the classic cocktails, this wedding screamed their signature style.

They had each attendee blow bubbles as they walked down the aisle as husband and wife.

It was a delight to perform the ceremony for this trendy couple.

And I’m sure their future will as elegant as they are.

Glitz, Glamour and Glitter

This was an all out “light and bright” event for Ashley & Edward who got married this May. A wedding party of ten on each side: tuxedos and long pink dresses. This was a traditional ceremony with just enough sparkle to make it enchanted.

My favorite part of this ceremony was when Edward’s mother wrapped both of them in a large Rosary and recited her own special prayer. Honoring her heritage and theirs.

Here I am laughing with this sweet bunch outside the reception.

Edward and Ashley, may you always bring all the light and love you had on your wedding day.

And may you be wrapped in your beautiful extended family’s love forever.

Can I get married in 2 hours?

The answer is yes! A few weeks ago a couple called me with an interesting request. They were about to travel around the world for a year, leaving in two days. They wanted to get married before they left while both sets of their parents were visiting.

Sometimes a spontaneous wedding is perfect for the couple with an adventurous spirit. Lesley and Zeke were just that couple.

So they put up a ready made canopy and I officiated their wonderful impromptu ceremony by day's end.

Two days later I received a sweet email from the couple saying that being married made their journey that much sweeter. Happy trails Lesley & Zeke. And may you alway have that adventurous spirit in your love for each other!
