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!

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.

      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'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!

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!

   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.

Here are a sneak peek of their wedding at the Aquarium of Pacific:
