| wedding at rancho la quinta country club |
05.10.2011 |
This past weekend I trekked out to the Palm Springs wedding to shoot a wonderful wedding at the
Rancho La Quinta Country Club. I had shot the groom's brother's wedding a few years back, so it was great to see some familiar faces and be welcomed as a part of the family again.
Olivia Prescott was the coordinator and
Artisan provided the florals.
Although the temperature was over 100 degrees, there was a nice breeze throughout the day and it never really felt that hot. The grounds of the country club were amazing and it was just a beautiful celebration filled with love & laughter. The bride looked amazing and was so easy going and laid back and she had excellent taste.
Her
Carolina Herrera gown:
Her Jimmy Choo's"
Check out this necklace her in-laws gave her at the rehearsal dinner:
Abraham is the son from the wedding I shot 5 years ago and did an outstanding job as ring bearer:
The groom looked quite handsome. I also loved the grey suit:
The lovely bride:
These two saw each other before the ceremony to get most of the photos out of the way:
I don't see this arraignment too after, when the couple stands in the middle of all the guests:
One last veiled portrait as a single woman:
Some refreshing lemonade on a warm day:
These two were so in love and filled with joy... it was so obvious:
They actually had two bands... an American band and a Lebanese band. They rocked out to both.
The also had some traditional Lebanese dancers entertaining the guests:
Instead of a cake, they had a Croc en Boosh:
And finally, a view of the club at twilight:
I want to wish the happy couple many years filled with joy and love. Thanks for allowing me to be a part of your day! Congratulations!
Also, thanks to
Megan Hayes for second shooting with me, she'll have some more images on her blog shortly.
