C.Jay and Anna had an amazingly beautiful day at the stunning Wine & Roses in Lodi, CA. From the moment Anna first inquired about information on my photography for her future wedding, I was hoping-hoping-hoping they would decide to go with me. I couldn’t have been more thrilled when I found out I was officially their photographer!
Anna was definitely the calmest bride I had ever been around. Not an ounce of bridezilla in this girl! 😉 I also couldn’t help but notice how organized everything was – I don’t think I’ve ever been to a wedding that flowed so perfectly. It just goes to show you how organized these two are! 🙂 I also have to say a huge thank you to my fantastic second shooter, Lisa from Elisabeth Arin Photography. You were wonderful and I so appreciated everything you did!
Now onto the photos!
One of the many things I loved about Wine & Roses was that it really has everything you need in one location! Hotel, spa, restaurant & a wonderful wedding venue!
Anna’s Grandmother flew in from Germany for the wedding!
Anna you were one flawless bride! So gorgeous!
How cute is the little flower girl? She happens to have a twin which you will see shortly…
C.Jay looked ever so handsome.
I loved the ceremony site, I mean, how can you not?! 🙂
C.Jay’s first glimpse of his beautiful bride.
First kiss!
Anna & C.Jay made sure to schedule a nice slot of time for portraits of the two of them! In such a beautiful setting and perfect couple, I was in heaven!
Cutest cake I have ever seen!
C.Jay & Anna’s friends & family gave some wonderful toasts!
Best Man started things off…
Anna’s maid of honor & lifelong friend had the sweetest toast.
Anna’s sister Sarah’a toast was the perfect combo of being hilarious and heartfelt 🙂
The “father of the bride” had everyone laughing through his toast!
Followed by an equally great toast from C.Jay’s dad.
Time to party!
Thank you C.Jay and Anna for asking me to be your photographer on such an incredible day in your lives! You are some of the kindest people I have ever met and I know that God will bless your marriage because you are putting Him first! 🙂 Thank you again!
