An elegant
black tie wedding in Carmel, CA
Mary and Dylan's black tie wedding in Carmel, California was a stunning and elegant wedding day.

Personally, anytime it’s in the mid 90s […]

When Leilani and Joey chose to have an Irvine Regional Park Engagement at the start of my fall season, I knew it would be perfect… and it was!
