I absolutely love Nixon Library weddings! Robert and I even looked into the Nixon Library for our wedding during our venue search back in 2006. So I always have a special place in my heart for these weddings. I was so grateful and excited when friend and colleague Michael Fletcher invited me to document Erica and Jamie’s wedding with him.

It was a very hot day for their wedding, but the bride and groom were such troopers and stuck out the heat for some lovely bridal portraits.

We’re so happy and proud that this is our first wedding on our brand new blog. But as much as a milestone as it is for us, it’s even bigger that we announce Alice and Ben’s marriage to the world! Their wedding was a amazing two day event.  As Ben’s mother said to me, “Ben and Alice are now married in the eye’s of God, in the eye’s of the law, and in the tradition of the Chinese Culture.”  There’s no getting out of it now guys! LOL 🙂  But seriously, we couldn’t be happier for the two of you, and we can’t wait for many more visits to Arizona and celebrating more special moments with you and your families.

Below is just a sneak preview of their Catholic Church Ceremony at St Bernard’s Church, their American Wedding Reception at Firesky Resort, their Chinese Tea Ceremony, and their Chinese Wedding Reception at the Great Wall Banquet. Phew!  That’s a lot of celebrating!  But Alice and Ben totally deserved every moment of it, every toast, and every well wish.  We are so honored to have been invited to be a part of it all. Cheers to Ben and Alice!

We can’t possibly fit everything into a single sneak peak article, so over the next few days we’ll present to you the amazing moments that happened. Enjoy 🙂

 The romance…

The Bridal Party

The lovely Catholic Ceremony and the equally beautiful and meaningful Chinese Tea Ceremony

There wasn’t a shortage of candid happy moments either. 

This was one of my favorite moments of the getting ready. I had gone down the hall to check in with Ben and the guys and all of the sudden I hear shouting coming from down the hall.  I ran back to the girls room, and I heard the ladies cheering to the world “ALICE IS GETTING MARRIED!”  Such a sweet moment.

They even had a grand ceremony exit with BUBBLES.

If we said to people Sonic the Hedgehog battled a giant banana you think people would believe us?  No we weren’t high. It happened.

The lovely details.

and of course one of our favorite times of the reception, night-fashion portraiture, at Firesky Resort

So stay tuned after a brief word from our sponsors. =X.

David and Laura were married at the Talega Golf Club in San Clemente, CA. After the new year, Laura thought it might be fun for her and David to get dressed up again in their wedding attire and take some relaxed, creative photos in some of the locations around the venue that we didn’t get a chance to go to on the wedding day.
