Mona and Jon – Wedding Recap – L’Auberge Resort and Spa

Mona and Jon are from Chicago. They decided they wanted to have a destination wedding out here in San Diego! It was a good choice for them since they had friends and family coming in from all over the world and it would be a good neutral location. The funny thing is that I always figure I’ll run into people I know at weddings since I grew up in San Diego and I usually don’t but of course I ran into someone I know at this wedding with 100% of their guests coming in from out of town! weird…

Anyway, back to Mona and Jon, they had a beautiful ceremony and reception at the L’Auberge in Del Mar. It was perfect weather and so much fun to see that so many people had traveled so far to see this couple’s wedding day! They are truly blessed by their friends and family.

Here is their recap video…my favorite parts are the poem read during the ceremony by a friend and the shots of the ever talented Wayne Foster Entertainment group…oh and I like their ring shot on the candy = YUM!

Eriko and Azmi – Wedding Recap – The Dana

Eriko and Azmi had such a beautiful wedding at the Dana in San Diego. They are such a beautiful couple and displayed such a beautiful mesh of cultures. I think my favorite thing was this olive tree that is a symbol in Azmi’s Palestinian culture and on the tree there were oragami cranes that were symbolic of Eriko’s Japanese culture. I just love the idea of bringing the two families together in that way. You’ll see in the video that they also had a section of Arabic dancing where they lifted the couples on chairs, that was a lot of fun. This couple was so much in love and it was really neat to see all their guests sharing in their most special day.

Without further ado, Eriko and Azmi’s wedding recap video! Enjoy:

Esther and Tae – Wedding Recap – La Jolla Wedding Bowl

We shot Esther and Tae’s wedding June 15th in La Jolla, CA at the La Jolla Wedding Bowl. It was surprising for us to have a Monday wedding but in San Diego, the weather is always good for weddings…even on Mondays! Esther and Tae are from Philadelphia but decided to have their ceremony in San Diego! This is the highlight/recap video that they showed at their reception in Philly the following weekend! Beautiful spot for a beautiful couple 🙂

enjoy 🙂

Tiffany and Aaron – Recap Video – Dana Point Marina Inn

Tiffany and Aaron had a wonderful wedding up at the Orange County Sailing and Events Center. I’ve actually known Tiffany since we were in kindergarten and we spent years in girl scouts together! hah. So you might notice in the recap that I’m one of the bridesmaids! This made videography a bit tricky but Jared did smashingly with an assistant to help out 🙂

My two favorite things in the video: their first dance (and then the dance including their son Caleb – what a cutie!) and their getaway on a sailboat at the end! Fabulous way to end the night!

Brooke and Brandon – Wedding Recap – Maderas Golf Club

Brooke and Brandon are such funny and fun people to be around. We had a wonderful time working on their love story before their wedding and then enjoyed every minute of their wedding! The recap was actually a bit hard for me to put together since they had so many activities during their wedding including a band (Get Back Loretta), a choreographed dance, a candy table, photobooth,  Brooke singing to Brandon and some long and funny speeches…there were  so many good clips to choose from.

But here are some of the best ones!

Enjoy
