It was a serene, calm morning. As Angie’s friend put the final touches on her hair, Angie was as calm & collected as could be. She laughed, she smiled…she was over the moon. And why wouldn’t she be? She was marrying her best friend & it literally was her dream come true. Her bridesmaids gathered together to “ooooooh” & “aaaaaah” as Angie stepped into her custom made wedding gown. And as Angie & Nick saw each other for the first time on their wedding day in a grove of redwood trees, they embraced…they kissed…everything around them disappeared…and it was perfect. Because when Angie & Nick are together, all is right, all is perfect & everything is better. That evening as family & friends raised their glasses to toast the newly married couple, Angie’s brother said, “I love Angie & I love Nick. But I love Angie & Nick even more.” Everyone who knows Angie & Nick know what a fabulous & dynamic duo they are. There truly is no Nick without Angie & no Angie without Nick.
When I talked to Angie about the wedding, I knew it was going to be an event to remember. Angie put so much work into making sure the details were perfect. And perfect they were! They married at Nestldown in Los Gatos, a romantic & secluded location that was gorgeous-no matter where you were on the property! Family & friends were serenaded by a string quartet as the bridal party walked down the aisle (to the Beatles, no less!). The reception was gorgeous as everyone dined on delicious food, enjoyed a fun photo booth & a rockin live band. As always, there were so many beautiful, thought out details. I loved the bold purple & blue colors, the butterfly guests cards, Angie’s perfect shoes, her chunky gold jewelry, their fun bridal party & their incredible butterfly cake. It truly was an event for all to remember.
Angie & Nick-I honestly love you guys. It’s been so much fun to see you become husband & wife. You are such a wonderful, fabulous couple & I think that everyone who knows you can see how happy you make each other. Thank you so much for giving me the chance to photograph your picture perfect day- it was something that I will always remember & cherish! Congratulations to the both of you-enjoy your 2 week honeymoon in Indonesia (lucky ducks!) xoxo, marielle.
I’m obsessed with Angie’s shoes. Look how fabulous they complimented the hotel’s decor!
This is the reason why I think that having a first look on your wedding day is amazing.
