Favorite part of your gown: “I loved the unique yet subtle accent color and the large-scale lace patterns.”
Why did you pick your dress: “I wanted something that would be fun to dance in and it was! This dress also gave me that magic, confident feeling once I tried it on.”
The best part of the venue: “We loved that it was scenic and private. The staff was also exceptional.”
Why did you pick your venue: “The venue is in a remote location, there were rooms available to stay on-site, and so many other fun on-site amenities that made the space feel really special to bring guests there. We loved being able to host multiple events throughout the weekend of festivities.”
Three words to describe your day: “Joyful, Intimate, Memorable”

How you met: “Kevin and I met during high school cross-country running practice.”
How they proposed: “Kevin proposed while we were camping outside of Whittier.”
Any other fun memories/moments from the day: “The rain was truly a main character during our ceremony, which was a comical, torrential downpour but everyone stuck it out, and there was lots of laughter which made the ceremony feel really special, and helped me stay very present in the moment. Also, we had the best dance party, and the DJ created an epic emo/punk mashup which was unbelievably fun to dance to with our friends!”
