What a wonderful way to start off this year! Ian and Shannon’s wedding at the Coto de Caza Golf and Racquet Club in Orange County was absolutely stunning.  I’m so excited to share their wedding day! The tablescapes, flowers and attire were just stunning. Shannon’s wedding dress from The Dresser Bridal Couture was one of the most beautiful wedding gowns I’ve ever seen in person – I loved the broach detailing. It went perfectly with her gorgeous shoes and the exquisite bouquet. And the bridesmaids’ dresses? Loved them!

It was a beautiful winter day in Southern California – not a cloud in the sky, perfect wedding weather. Shannon and Ian decided not to do a first look (which I actually love – there’s really nothing like that moment of seeing each other for the first time as she’s coming down the aisle), so we got to do their formals after sunset and the view from Coto de Caza’s Golf and Racquet Club were just so beautiful. I don’t think I could of asked for a more beautiful venue!

The reception that followed was filled with a few tears and a lot of laughs. DJ Ryan did a fabulous job of keeping the dance floor busy! Enjoy this peek at their big day!
