David and Laura were married at the Talega Golf Club in San Clemente, CA. After the new year, Laura thought it might be fun for her and David to get dressed up again in their wedding attire and take some relaxed, creative photos in some of the locations around the venue that we didn't get a chance to go to on the wedding day.
It was sunny and clear until literally the minute David and Laura arrived for the shoot, and then it started to rain and hail!!! But we had an absolute blast photographing out in the rain, and the stormy weather made for a dramatic backdrop in the sky as seen in the photos below.
We must give a very special thank you to Michael Voorhees at Talega for being such an amazing host and for allowing us to visit the venue again for this shoot. Michael even held an umbrella to help keep Laura's hair and make-up dry, and dried off the golf cart multiple times while taking us around the grounds for the photos. Michael, we can't thank you enough!

The Jessica Elizabeth team had the honor of documenting May and Florin's wedding at the
Los Verdes Golf Club.
On a beautiful Saturday afternoon, family and friends joined from all sides of the world in Palos Verdes to be together for May and Florin's wedding. May grew up in Southern California, but eventually settled down in the Bay Area, where she met her sweetheart, Florin. And the rest is history. For the wedding, she couldn't resist the beautiful weather SoCal has to offer, and neither could Florin. Below, is a preview of their wedding ceremony. More stories and photographs to come!
The Processional
Its so awesome that the officiant of the ceremony is an old friend. He told some great funny stories.
One of the stories he shared was May's love for the series Twilight. She loves Twilight so much that Robert Pattinson made a surprise guest appearance!
The bride and groom have a very goofy and rambunctious side to them. Their happiness is so infectious that we couldn't help but laugh and smile while editing these photos.
Florin's mother read a beautiful poem by a Romanian poet.
May and Florin exchanging their vows.
"I promise to love you, in my own way."
May had four gorgeous bridesmaids.
And Florin had five handsome groomsmen.
As part of the ceremony, Florin and May joined hands, and the officiant asked for Florin's hand on top. "Remember and cherish this moment because this is the last time you will have the upper hand."
We love, love, LOVE this photograph.

Jennifer and Eddie are a match made in heaven. We got to know them over the course of their wedding planning, and they are an adorable and beautiful couple. Jennifer told us the story of how she was feeling sick at work one day, and having heard this, Eddie, only knowing Jennifer as an acquaintance at that time, went during his break to go buy her some medicine. Later, a co-worker asked Jennifer if she would consider dating Eddie and Jennifer responded, "No. Because Eddie isn't the kind of guy you date; he's the kind of guy you marry." And marry him she did!
We had the honor of documenting Jennifer and Eddie's wedding that took place at Our Lady of Refuge Church in Long Beach with their reception at the Portuguese Hall in Artesia. Because we like to tease, we are giving a small glimpse into Jennifer and Eddie's day.
Jennifer and Eddie's wedding trailer
Jennifer's Beautiful Ivory Bouquet
Jennifer's grandmother passed down her wedding ring for Jennifer to have when she got married. And to honor her, Jennifer pinned the ring next to her heart inside her wedding gown.
As a gift to his Groomsmen, Eddie gave out personalized flasks. AWESOME!
Eddie Getting Ready
Jennifer Getting Ready
Looking absolutely gorgeous, Jennifer walked out of her dressing room showing off her wearing the gown for the first time.
Just a little sneak peek into their bridal session at the gardens.
Last but not least, we have to mention a little surprise that goes by the name of Neal and his Thunderbird. Eddie, you got yourself some stiff competition there. ;) inside joke.
Neal happened to see us as he was driving and graciously volunteered his Thunderbird for a couple bridal portraits!
This picture is for you Neal!
More to come!

A few weeks ago, we previewed Tina and Erik's wedding at the Aquarium of the Pacific. Without further adieu, here is their wedding day, complete with a video highlight. This wedding was particularly special as Tina is my sister. Despite being a bridesmaid, and without a camera for many parts of the day, our awesome Jessica Elizabeth team handled the photography, cinematography, and interactive photobooth with stride. To my amazing and talented husband, Robert, thank you for making this day so beautiful! Special thanks to Kevin and the rest of our Jessica Elizabeth team for rocking this event! Because of you guys, Tina and Erik have wonderful memories to look back at.

A few years ago Robert and I co-hosted a New Year's Eve party with my sister Michelle and her husband Mark. Mark's brothers Pete and Erik were in town, and they joined us for the party. Erik spent most of the night carrying around an enormous foot tall champagne glass. LOL. Apparently this caught my sister Tina's attention and shortly after the party they started dating.
Dating wasn't always easy for Tina and Erik as Erik in the Air Force. Over the past few years Tina has gone to visit him in Louisiana and Texas and Erik has come to visit her in CA. I'm sure the visits always seemed too short and the times he was away seemed too long. Through Skype, over the phone movie dates, and Facebook they made it work.
And on May 11th, another Tincopa sister married another Boets brother.

Last summer we had the honor in participating in a wedding vendor challenge for Best Wedding Sites. The challenge was to create and style a Bridal Shower using the colors Yellow and Blue.
The team consisted of Miriam of Miriam Corona Events, Samantha of Paper Mints, florals and linens from Cristina of Posh Peony Event Design, and the adorable sweets from Eileen at Cucamonga Cakery. Our team had tons of fun running with the challenge and our design even made the cover of the September Issue of Best Wedding Sites Magazine.
Since I know many of our brides are currently working on the themes and floral designs for their summer weddings, I thought we would post a little inspiration on this beautiful summer like day in February here in SoCal. This post may also be helpful to all you MOHs (Maid of Honors) out there looking for inspiration for that Bridal Shower you will be hosting soon.
To read more about the details and design of this shoot, check out the feature article here:

Pete & Erika's Wedding
If you look back to one of our earlier posts, we blogged
about a sailor and his mate. We first met Pete when my sister Michelle started
dating Pete's brother Mark. Shortly
thereafter, my sister Christina started dating Pete's brother Erik. When we first met Erika, she asked Pete if he
was sure he wouldn't prefer to date one of my remaining 4 sisters (aka those
sisters not already married to one of Pete's brothers.) As you can see Erika
has a pretty awesome sense of humor and a wonderful personality. Erika is super sweet and down to earth. She is also one gorgeous woman! I'm sure Pete would agree ;)
Pete is the classically handsome Navy Sailor. He's a fun loving guy with an equally great
personality. And lucky for Erika, Pete
had absolutely no interest in dating any of my sisters. LOL.
Pete and Erika were married at the enchanting Mt. Woodson
Castle in Ramona, CA. I must say Rob and I were a little jealous of the wedding
venue as we both had dreamed of getting married at a castle. Fortunately, we had the honor of being a part
of Pete & Erika's dream wedding day.
Here's a peek of their day:

Carrie & Mark were married aboard the "Eternity" in Newport Beach. Although the forecast had called for a chance of rain earlier in the week, the weather was beautiful and the sky amazing!
Here is a sneak peek from their wedding day:
Newport Beach, CA
Carrie's Gorgeous Wedding Gown
Carrie is the 14th grandchild, so she was given this beautiful handkerchief by her grandparents embroidered with a special message and the #14. The ring pillow below the handkerchief was sewn by Carrie's mother and made from both of her grandmother's wedding dresses. So sweet and touching.
Carrie's mother lit the candle for the Curtis family and Mark's mother lit the candle for the Fitzpatrick family. Then Carrie and Mark lit the Unity Candle together.
"F" for the new Mr. & Mrs. Mark Fitzpatrick
The Handsome Groom
The Proud Parents
We took Carrie & Mark up to the upper deck after the ceremony to sneak in some sunset Bridal Portraits.
Cec Curtis:
Love, Love, LOVE the pics! Can't wait to see the rest! Thank you so much for being there to photograph this wonderful day for our family Jessica and Rob! xoxo

Mark and Carrie::
All we have to say is, "WOW!" You guys did a phenomenal job!! That game night and coffee idea sounds great! Once we get things situated with moving, we'll let you know. Thanks again for the wonderful memories!

Courtney & Mike were married at the lovely Bella Collina in San Clemente, CA. The day began with a very unusual Southern California hail storm. Yikes! But by wedding time the hail had moved on and the sun was shining bright. Our team, which included Peyton and Kevin as well, had such an blast at their wedding!
Courtney & Mike are such a sweet and adorable couple. They are gorgeous people inside and out. I'm sure all the guests could see how incredibly in love they are and that they were on Cloud 9 celebrating with all of their friends and family.
We had the chance to work with the wonderful ladies at de Luxe Weddings and Events who did an amazing job coordinating and designing all of the details and working with us to squeeze in as many photos as we could! We also got to enjoy working with Luke Sensebe from Premiere Events Group who rocked the party!
Special thanks to Tanja Janjic from Bella Collina for giving us the grand tour and for making sure we were taken care of on wedding day.
The florals were created by The Flower Girl. The guests were well fed by Jay's Catering.
Now onto the photos from Courtney & Mike's Special Day....
P.S. We also had our cinematographer Kevin along with us for Courtney & Mike's wedding day, so make sure to check out the Teaser from their day below.
The Hail:
Courtney's Beautiful Wedding Gown in the Bella Collina Wine Room.
The Sweet Custom Hanger. LOVE it!
And the shoes:
Courtney got ready with her bridesmaids and her mother Joann in the Ladies Locker Rooms at Bella Collina.
Then the ladies headed over to the organic garden for some bridal party photos at the trellis.
Meanwhile Rob was over with the guys for some getting ready photos and the groomsmen portraits.
Apparently the guys wanted to see if they would be able to catch Mike if he ran away.
But for those who know Mike- they know that if he were running anywhere on the wedding day, it would be toward Courtney <3.
Courtney walked down the aisle with her mother Joann.
Congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs. Michael Rice!
This jumping photo was a special request from Courtney & Mike. OK, just Mike. Awesome :)
Courtney had spotted a pitchfork while we were out photographing the bridesmaids. We just had to work it into a photo. LOL. So here's our take on "American Gothic".
Courtney & Mike let us sneak them out of their reception for a few minutes to capture this Night Portrait.
And they had some fantastic sparklers so we couldn't resist a little light painting! Check out that heart. Nice work guys.
Love, Laughter & Celebration! Congrats you two. It was an amazing night.

Sharon & Fred's Wedding: Part 2
Sharon & Fred stayed at the beautiful Blue Lantern Inn, in Dana Point, CA for their wedding night. We had the opportunity to take a few beautiful bridal portraits of them before heading over to Cannon's Restaurant for their ceremony & reception.
These photos were taken of Sharon looking out onto the water from her suite's balcony.
I think Fred likes what he sees. Yep- she's gorgeous!
Although we had scoped out the beach just a few days before the wedding, the beach was crazy bright and insanely windy and cold on the wedding day. But Sharon & Fred are troopers and braved the jetty long enough for Robert to capture this photo.
We were able to sneak Sharon & Fred out of their reception for just a few minutes and take them to the Blue Lantern Inn next door for these photos.
What a bunch of handsome guys!
It wouldn't be a wedding without an official toast to the happy couple.

The Floral Design
Rochelle & Jason were married at the Anaheim Hills Golf Course. The floral design was created by Leslie of Pixie's Petals. The color scheme for the wedding included the classic bridal Ivory, green, and a palette of purples and pinks ranging from muted to vibrant hues.
If you would like to see some of Rochelle & Jason's bridal portraits, you can check them out here.
The wedding was coordinated by Miriam at Glam Candies. You can check out the post on the reception details here.

I love the smiles and excitement on their faces as they walk back up the aisle for the first time as the new Mr. & Mrs!
The skies were full of drama just before the ceremony started, adding another dimension to the lovely ceremony site and floral decor.
Then Ceremony arrangements included a nice mix of ivory hydrangea, pink and lavender roses, a hint of green, and some gorgeous purple with ivory calla lilies.
I like the dangling black ribbon as an added touch to the aisle decor on the contrasting white chairs.
The colors and flowers used in the bride and bridesmaid's bouquets blended beautifully with each other and the ceremony and reception decor while still being different.
The Bride's Bouquet.
The Bridesmaid's Bouquet.
The Flower Girls' Kissing Ball.
The reception decor included a mix of high and low centerpieces.

What do you get when you combine lovely weather, a beautiful church, a gorgeous bride, and a handsome groom? Yep, you guessed it: Frank & Cathy's Wedding. Without further ado, we are proud to share with you a peek of Frank & Cathy's wedding day.
The ceremony took place at St. Joseph's Church in Santa Ana. Although we did take the traditional family photos outside the church, Frank & Cathy also wanted to do some fun and creative Bridal Portraits. So, we made a pit stop in Old Towne Orange on our way to the reception.
Stayed tuned for a post coming soon about their reception at the Phoneix Club and all of its beautiful details.

We remember the first time we met with Rochelle. She was so excited to be getting married to her fiance, Jason, who at the time lived out of state. They were acquaintances, turned best friends, turned fabulous couple. When we were first introduced to Jason, it was clear they were meant to be together. On a brisk April afternoon at the Anaheim Hills Golf Course, the sun had broken through the rain clouds. Jason and Rochelle jumped the broom!
Rob and I genuinely had a wonderful time. There were a lot of photo buffs here, and it made things very fun. We even showed a few of Rochelle's family some night shooting tricks! Here is a preview of Rochelle and Jason's wedding.

A few months ago I attended a networking event held at the Casino San Clemente by The Knot.
The Casino has a unique history. In 1937 the Casino San Clemente opened and featured orchestra music in the ballroom. From 1941-1943, the Casino served as a wartime lookout station. Throughout the years, this location has been a restaurant, Moose Lodge, and dinner theatre. Currently, the Casino is used as a special event venue with multiple spaces available for your Wedding or private event including, a ballroom, a rock garden, a west wing, and a patio space. This venue is located near the train station in San Clemente within site of the beautiful Pacific Ocean. If you are looking for a one of a kind venue it is definitely worth checking out.
You can learn more about the Casino San Clemente and see more photos in their gallery here: http://www.thecasinosanclemente.com/index.html
Below are some photos taken of the decor from The Knot event. I thought I would share in hopes that it may help inspire some of our brides and grooms with their own wedding decor.
This antique piano was set in the Rock Garden just outside the West Wing and Main Balllroom. I love the colors used in this design. The rose, hydrangea blue, green, and tones of brown all blended so nicely together. The burgundy dahlias created a nice accent.
I LOVE how the designer cut the word "LOVE" out of this story book. This would totally make a fun DIY touch to add to your wedding.
This setting was located in the West Wing. I really enjoyed the old sheet music that covered the backdrop and the antique frames that were hung above the unique pieces of furniture selected for this room's decor.
This floral arrangement set atop antique suitcases contained a mix of White Hydrangea, Dahlias, Lavender Roses, Purple Tulips, and even some Raspberries.

Just a few days before Christmas, Robert and I had the pleasure of photographing Liah & Cristian's wedding.The wedding was held at the gorgeous Vibiana in Los Angeles, CA. Although it was pouring rain outside, the wedding day was fabulous!
There are so many wonderful details to share that were beautifully designed and executed by de Luxe Weddings & Events. We probably could have posted about 50 photos, but we like to keep a sense of mystery and suspense. So maybe there will be an upcoming sequel to this post. This wedding is also being submitted for publication so we don't want to give away too much.
Here is our sneak peek:
Oh Liah, we love that beaming smile of yours!
Lovely bridal bouquet by French Buckets (beautiful mix of hydrangea, roses, and lilies.)
Liah's HOT purple bridal shoes :)
Tall Reception Centerpieces by French Buckets. I love the vibrant mix of pinks, greens, and purples.
Short Reception Centerpieces by French Buckets. The floating candles in the vases was a dramatic touch.
Loving that reception lighting!
