Today’s wedding comes to you from the beautiful city of San Juan Capistrano, California. And let me tell ya, you’re going to need tissues. So, do yourself a favor and grab a few before it’s too late!
San Juan Wedding
Joey and Paniz met at work while Paniz was floating as a receptionist at the pharmaceutical company Joey worked at. If you want to read the full story behind what set the spark of their sweet love and be inspired by the romantic engagement session at Irvine Regional Park, click here!
Their wedding took place on a gorgeous, sunny and warm day in September at the Serra Plaza in San Juan. Both, Joey and Paniz got ready for the big day in the same Airbnb. Paniz and her girls were partying it up in the main house, while Joey and his guys were in a separate in-law suite complete with a pool table and gorgeous beach view.
San Juan First Look
Capturing the moments of the bride and groom leading up to the moment of their first look is one of the best parts of this job. There is so much excitement and anticipation before the bride and groom see each other and lock in forever, hand in hand. I believe that every single moment of a wedding day deserves to be captured. Looking at a photo and being able to find yourself in its exact moment is so incredibly special and I’m so glad that I get to be the one who captures these very moments for the couples I have the privilege to serve!
I LOVE that Joey was so present and invested in every single moment. He was completely captivated with his bride the entire day! It was such a sweet thing to witness.
Reception
Talk about a party…this one should’ve been awarded for party of the year! No detail was left out!! The florals were to die for…the sweetheart table was what dreams are made of…the toasts were perfection. A little bit emotional and a whole lot of laughter! OH and then the dancing!!! Let’s not leave out the PACKED dance floor. It was a FREAKING BLAST!! You know you’re having a great time when the GROOM is sad the day is over and doesn’t want the night to end. To say it was THE perfect day might even be an understatement!
Joey and Paniz, I LOVE your love! THANK YOU for letting me capture the start of your life together!!
Cheers to forever <3
