With all the bad episodes in the economy, guess we can say we’re very lucky to have had more bookings than we had planned on taking this year. We’re sorry for the ones we turned away for booked dates and for those interested couples, instead of closing our 2009 booking, we’ve decided to take two more for the year. Just two more and we’re off to 2010.

There will also be changes in our packages and pricing by the first of October, so if you wish to lock in on our current prices and packages, please drop us a line or simply click on our CONTACT tab to let us know of your interest. For those already booked for 2010, everything will remain as agreed upon and future additions will be based on rates upon the time of booking. TYSM!

Ceremony : St. Joseph Church. Fremont, California
Reception : The Bridges Golf Club. San Ramon, California
Photographer : Alfred Salom Photography
Song : “1234″ by Plain White T’s

All weddings are fun but this one was extraordinarily FUN! When the couple told us the song they wanted for this video we were in awe, ’cause it was what we had in mind too! So, we were excited doing this and took some hints from the actual 1234 video by Plain White T’s.
All day, Lei and Marcel were always in high spirits. All good times…with a little drama of course, mostly from the groom..Ha!
From the macbook gift to the “game over” shirt, how we wished the song was a little bit longer so we can show more of the this jovial couple’s special fun day.

A long and beautiful wedding ceremony on a lovely day in Redondo Beach. The flower arrangement was fabulous, thanks to the creative work of Nadya, the bride. Yes, she was her own florist for her special day..a true labor of love!

Ceremony : St. Elizabeth Seton Catholic Church. Irvine, California
Reception : Irvine Marriott
Photographer : Serena Grace
Songs : “Better Together” by Jack Johnson / “In Your Hands” by Javier

We did a Same Day Fusion for Rica and Leo and we posted the latter part of their picture slide show and same day edit. The couple wrote a letter to each other that they read at the ceremony before the vows, which we thought was very touching and exceptional. A great idea for couples tying the knot in the future. It made the ceremony a very personal one. Reception at the Marriott was also commendable, service was top notch. The family and friends of the bride and groom we’re all great, lively and real party people. DJ Kelly of Sounds Like Fun Entertainment rocked the house. And of course, our gorgeous couple, Rica and Leo was just dazzling! Here’s their Same Day Edit.

A perfect venue, delightful setting, gorgeous day…oh and of course, a beautiful couple, Nazli and Sia, who were just stunning! and great dancers too. In fact, it was an all night dancing affair for our first Persian wedding coverage. The couple and their guests packed the dance floor all night and it was a blast! This wedding is without a doubt on the top of our list.

The bride’s from the Philippines and the groom lives in New York. The wedding was held in California!

Ceremony : St. Paschal Baylon Church. Thousand Oaks, California
Reception : Las Posas Country Club. Camarillo, California
Photographer : Robert Hill

Everyone had one thing to say about Erika and Russell….. “they are perfect for each other.” A heartwarming love story and a very personal ceremony…the couple giving out their own vows was a real tearjerker….very touching.

The church was at St. Paschal Baylon Catholic Church in Thousand Oaks with the groom’s uncle officiating the ceremony. Reception followed at the exclusive Las Posas Country Club in Camarillo.

We did a fusion of their love story and wedding day as a same day edit for the couple’s reception presentation. It was a privelege for us to tag along with their photographer Robert Hill (another wedding photography genius) during their pre-nup pictorial in Venice Beach late last year…. Yes, that’s where we got those amazing beach shots in the video.

Ceremony : St. Philiph’s Church. Pasadena, California
Reception : Pasadena Museum of California Art
Photographer : Greg Bumatay, Bumatay Studio
Make-up : Jeanne San Diego
Gown : Pronovias

We had a blast shooting our first full spanish wedding! The historic city of Pasadena was the venue for our stunning couple. St. Philiph’s Church was perfect for the ceremony and the rooftop of the Pasadena Museum of California Art with the amazing sunset in the background made for one of the most romantic first dance I have ever witnessed.
With the creative artistry of wedding photography master Greg Bumatay, along with second photographer Neil Rosales, shooting their stills…what more can anyone ask for!! To view some of Ruby & Sergio’s amazing shots by Bumatay Studios, check out Greg’s blog.
Compliments to the beautiful bride’s make-up by Jeanne San Diego and the lovely gown by Pronovias.
