Teresa and Brian are a match made in heaven. Teresa’s best friend just happened to have a super cute brother and Teresa was smitten. It’s that perfect scenario when you meet somebody perfect and actually get to know them before jumping into a relationship blindly. It didn’t take long before Teresa and Brian were inseparable and all these years later they are finally married. I believe that the love of your life should be your best friend too. Somebody you can laugh with, talk to all night long, giggle, cry, and just be yourself. These are the things that will stand the test of time. Teresa and Brian are the epitome of this and they’re so much fun to be around as a couple. I already told you just how amazing they are as individuals in my blog post of the their engagement session, but as a duo, it just gets better. They compliment each other in just the right way and you can just see the love in their eyes. I love their love.

I could have just stayed in the bridal suite at the Franciscan Gardens and taken pictures all day long. Everything was so cool!
Ready!
This is how Brian saw Teresa for the first time on their wedding day…looking incredible with a giant smile on her face as she walks toward him.
I’m a little bit obsessed with a wedding dress with pockets. PocketLove!
Mission San Juan Capistrano was the most perfect backdrop for a first look. This wedding photographer couldn’t ask for more, it was beautiful!
It’s showtime!
I love this expression. Excitement, love and anticipation…all at once.
Instead of the traditional unity candle or sand pouring ceremony, Teresa & Brian did a wine pouring ceremony where two different kinds of wine are poured into a single glass to represent their unique backgrounds coming together as one. It was pretty cool, especially when my favorite officiant described the meaning behind it. Very unique and lovely.
San Juan Capistrano is just gorgeous, everywhere! I loved the backdrop we found for the bridal party photos.
These two really outdid themselves with their unique decor elements. Such an incredibly beautiful wedding!
Lots and lots of beautiful details!
I never know where to begin when posting weddings. There is so much to talk about when it comes to that one special day. Each one is different and unique and has a story of its own. I’m convinced that this particular wedding is the only one ever that was completely drama-free. I’ve never felt so much love from so many people, for so many people, all in one place. Teresa and Brian, now I know why the two of you are such incredible people…you come from seriously amazing families!
