Happy Anniversary ~ Monica & Jonathan ~ Calvary Church and Bel Air Bay Club, Pacific Palisades

As I sat down to prepare a Happy 1st Anniversary post for Monica & Jonathan's May 22nd wedding, I was scrolling through our blog looking for the original wedding post to link back and show you some of the great pics from their beautiful wedding. Low and behold, I realized that I never did their wedding pictures.

So, without further ado, please join me in wishing Monica & Jonathan an amazing 1st Anniversary. Check out some of the pictures from their beautiful day!

Loved Monica in her stunning wedding dress - Susan and I couldn't agree on our favorite shot of the bouquet - so we just included both of them. (Who likes which one??)


Jonathan with his groomsmen - and my favorite all their great cuff links (check out those Texas Longhorns)!


Monica fell in love with a cake from one of the many wedding magazines, and Leslie and her team from Fantasy Frostings did an amazing job creating this beautiful (and tasty) cake!

Jonathan had such a great idea to honor and include all of their guests in the wedding celebration. We asked guests to return a photo from their own wedding, and we decorated multiple manzanita tree's with these images for all the guests to enjoy. I was so moved that I had to share the idea ~ check out the heartfelt blog from Tic Tock Couture Florals on the idea. Loved how they thought of all the guests throughout the planning process!


We had the most incredible day, and Stephanie from SDK Photo was able to get some gorgeous outdoor photos of Monica & Jonathan. Here are a couple of my favorites.



Be sure to check out both of their fabulous engagement sessions with SDK Photo and with TinyWater Photography.

We wish you a lifetime full of the love and happiness you shared on your wedding day.

Many thanks to all of the fantastic vendors who made this day perfect!
