Melody and Aaron - Private Residence Los Angeles

Melody and Aaron had a SPECTACULAR wedding! Her parent's home and backyard were transformed into a stunning backdrop for what was one of the coolest events we've filmed. So many favorite details and moments...the Bride's dress and her father looking in during the morning while she was getting ready...the Bridesmaids dresses and bouquets, Aaron and his guys doing a roll call of everyone and where they came from...the processional with everyone dancing down the aisle to different songs...the decor...the look of the event as it changed from day to night...I could go on and on!

The photographers and our crew just kept raving to each other how many great shots we were getting...we had so much FUN!!

And the toasts...each one of them were really special. I loved Melody's mom's toast where she talked about how beautiful all the bridesmaids dresses and bouquets were...like a rainbow...and that Melody was the rainbow of her life. How SWEET is that!?!

Shirin and Milaad - Balboa Bay Club & Resort Newport Beach

It was a perfect day at Balboa Bay Club for Shirin and Milaad's beautiful Wedding! After filming the morning preparations, we drove down the peninisula for a fun photo session with lots of colorful backdrops. I love this part of the day when we have time alone with the couple to capture some really wonderful moments before the ceremony begins.

They had a georgeous sofre, and the officiant performed the ceremony in both Farsi and English. The messages from Shirin and Milaad to each other, were so thoughtful and full of love.

The Reception started with a traditional Zaffa, and then a night of dancing with an awesome DJ accompinied by a few musicians who really ROCKED. If you look closely you might even see Bob Ortiz up on stage playing some drums!

Shirin and Milaad...it was such an honor to be a part of your day.
