Another love story, this time with the couple getting married over looking the ocean at Leadbetter Beach in Santa Barbara.
Special thanks and appreciation to Alex at Blue Sliver Photo for being an excellent photographer/tour guide and showing us great spots in Santa Barbara for portraits.
An hour after the ceremony, she updates her Facebook status from being “engaged” to “married.”
After an incredible act of patience and love, they said their “I dos” in Santa Barbara over looking the coast with all their friends and family.
When I first met her, she laughed… a lot. Not because I am so awesomely funny, but because she loves life and knows how to appreciate it.
Meeting them together was even more laughing. Lots of big ugly laughs (from me not them), and a delightful warmth that comes from being with people that enjoy your company as much as you enjoy theirs.
Now the time line deters from other “typical” weddings.
They became parents for the first time to a lovely daughter. She is the highlight of their lives and brings so much love and joy to them both.
We did getting ready photos with their little one.
What a lovely smile they both have….
Walked down the isle by her enthustatstic Navy driven Grandfather.
Half way down the isle she swipes off his baseball cap and this is the grooms’ reaction:
More laughing… Scoring almost the same score on a personality test was his brother-best man and his soon to be wife. So that makes it all the funnier when the best man, lost the rings in the box. And the bride giggled admitting she would probably of done the same thing.
After the ceremony bonded by more than love, and affections, but by the true meaning of family.
Romantic soft kisses, that look like poetry
One of my favorites of the day, only because I was eye deep in wispy willows and shrubs, and they just look so beautifully happy.
Of course the cake was amazingly simple and delicious.
