Heather & David // Wedding Trailer // Saddlerock Ranch Malibu

Here is a quick trailer for Heather and David's wedding at Saddlerock Ranch in Malibu this past weekend! This is such a stunning venue, the landscape is so dramatic, you can't escape it! The background of every shot is like a painting :-)

This couple, as you will see, have personality to spare - "I promise, I will never...." 

We really want to thank Kaci Mallat from Hustle & Bustle for running around all day keeping everything going. She did a remarkable job planning. 
 
 Photography was done by the very fun team at Scott A. Nelson Photography.

We headed over to Our Lady of Refuge, had a great ceremony, followed by a crazy photo session all over the Shoreline Aquatic Park and Pike area - then they finished the night off at The Reef! You will enjoy their story, their families and the love!

Talia and Eilon // Turnip Rose Costa Mesa Wedding Highlight // 4.28.13

Talia and Eilon are two amazing people with South African roots, who patiently waited to find the perfect love! As the song in this video says, "Everybody needs love, everybody wants love, everybody finds love, we all dream of!" 

Their relatives are so talented, we don't know what to say - just listen to the poem written just for them at the beginning of the video! 

The wedding took place at the Costa Mesa location of the Turnip Rose, and it was a glorious day! There's even a vineyard across the street where we captured some of their romantic shots! 

So get ready for some fun and enjoy the highlight!

Marriage is like a Team Sport

They found common ground in sports, and spent many early days falling in love at Angel Stadium. In many ways, team sports have a metaphoric association to marriage. They share a common running theme of teamwork. 

Here is some advice, from an NBA basketball coach, Mr. Pat Riley.

"There are only two options regarding commitment, you're either in, or you're out. There is no such thing as life in-between."

Summer and Tony, you made a commitment to love each other, not today, but many years ago when you first met. Since that day, there has been no life in-between - and today you are making the commitment to be a team - a team of two, forever.

In regards to teamwork, Duke's own Coach K said, "To me, teamwork is the beauty of our sport. Where you have five acting as one, you become selfless."

Today, Summer and Tony, as you become a team, you must always act as one and be selfless. Two great coaches - selflessness and teamwork will be the core of your marriage.
