"Shane and I aren't nervous at all. We're both just so ready to be married," said Suzan. It's no wonder as their relationship was a long distance one spanning from Grass Valley to Santa Maria, California. And it just seems appropriate that a relationship that began at a random meetup at a wedding should begin anew at another wedding, this time celebrating the two of them. Set in the beautiful gardens of Empire Mine State Park, family and friends gathered to celebrate. Though the distance is something they still have to overcome, and there will be other trials along the way, Suzan and Shane committed to honor, cherish, and love each other--forever. Thanks Michele for inviting me along to shoot with you!
One of the groomsmen gave Shane a special cufflink that represented his heritage.
Suzan and Shane chose a First Look, to see each other before the wedding. Both were so ready to be married!
Love that she chose blue suede heels!
Favorite! Empire Mine is the perfect place for a wedding or bride & groom portraits!
These amazing peonies as well as the other florals were designed by Foothill Flowers.
I usually have a love fest with color, but these just had to black and white! Aren't they a stunning couple?
One of my favorite moments, when the groom sees the bride coming down the aisle...so not diminished by the First Look at all! Shane even had to look away for awhile to regain his composure. ;-)
Finally married!
Christopher's Catering Co began the reception with some delish food while Mountain Event Productions acted as the host and kept the party going late into the night!
