Carmen and Teras had their California courthouse wedding on a beautiful summer day. They chose the County Courthouse for the ceremony, which was a fitting location for their special day. The ceremony was brief but meaningful, with both Carmen and Teras taking their vows in front of their closest family and friends. After the vows, and ring exchange, Carmen and Tera were officially married! The couple was filled with joy as they celebrated their union with a few special words and a kiss. It was a perfect day for Carmen and Tera and their California courthouse wedding was one that they will never forget.

Brandon and Tabatha’s Temecula, California summer wedding day was a dream. They held an outdoor wedding along the Temecula valley which was absolutely stunning! All the decor they chose included bright-colored florals, lots of greenery, and wooden touches. Their ceremony had an octagon-shaped wooden arch with views that looked over the valley. These two shared first looks prior to the ceremony before officially becoming husband and wife! I loved being able to capture every stunning moment of this day and being able to share it all with you! Tabatha and Brandon are such kind and down-to-earth people and I am so excited to see them grow together. If you’re planning on hosting a summer wedding, be sure to use Brandon and Tabatha’s day as inspiration for yours!
