Diablo Dormido Wedding | Hannah & Mark

Posted in Weddings

I have known Hannah for a very long time. When I found out she was engaged, I was so ecstatic! Mark is an amazing man, and loves Hannah so much. They had a beautiful, intimate wedding at Rancho del Diablo Dormido in Malibu. The name of the venue is very fitting, as you look out over the mountains that surround the property, one of those mountain tops looks exactly like a Sleeping Devil! Hannah and Mark only had a handful of guests, but the love these very special guests have for Hannah and Mark radiated through their wedding. It felt as if there were 200 guests present. Hannah and Mark also had the most amazing band, The Leftover Cuties, whose song is the theme song for The Big C. I am a huge fan of The Big C, so it was super exciting to hear the band start playing and immediately recognize their amazing sound! Hannah and Mark, we love you both and wish you a lifetime of love and happiness!

North Ranch Wedding | Sheila & Naveed

Posted in Weddings

My best friend got married! I had been waiting for this day for years. Sheila and I met in high school and spent almost every day together. We parted for college, UCSD for Sheila, UCSC for me. During those college years Sheila met Naveed. He is amazing, and the perfect man for her. I was lucky enough to be able to visit San Diego quite often and got to know Naveed very well. When they finally moved back to the area and got engaged, I was so happy. We had the best time dress shopping (because Sheila is gorgeous and every wedding dress looked amazing on her), making invitations, getting glitter all over the house decorating eggs for the sofreh, planning…I even baked 300 french macarons for their guest’s gifts. Every part down to the gorgeous wedding day filled my heart. When that day finally came, the North Ranch Country Club was spectacular! The flowers, the food, everything was perfect! Eric and I were guests at Sheila and Naveed’s wedding and all the beautiful photos were shot for Eight20 by our amazing friend Araxi, and one of our new associate photographers who will be available for weddings in 2012!
