As I mentioned in the previous post, I had a ton of fun editing the following images from Amy + Victor's fabulously amazing wedding! Seriously, the day just kept getting better, and Better, and BETTER, and.. the details just kept getting better, and Better and BETTER... You get my point. The day started off at Hotel Casa 425in Claremont. We had never been to this hotel and were pleasantly surprised by it's simple, modern feel.
Since Amy + Victor had a "school" themed wedding, Victor sent his groomsmen over with a gift for Amy. It was a 3ft trophy! Amazing!
Amy + Victor really wanted to attend their cocktail hour, for reasons which you will soon see, so they decided to break the rules a bit and see each other before the ceremony. It's always awesome when couples decide to do this, as it gives them a special moment alone, before all the fun begins.
The ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all took place at the Claremont Colleges. We have shot here many times before, but have never seen it transformed so beautifully for a wedding!
Here's my favorite shot of the day! Loving the vine action!
And of course, Wally was in attendance at the wedding! She was very excited for her Mommy and Daddy to get married! PS, Wally also makes a cameo on our new website's homepage.
They seriously had one of the most entertaining cocktail hours ever! Complete with a Tarot card reader, Martini glass mashed potato bar, Apple Martini bar, Polaroid picture booth in front of a chalkboard, and awesome hors d'oeuvres!
Chris Albanese of Argyle Events was the coordinator extraordinaire that made sure every detail was perfect! He did an amazing job, and we can't wait to work with him again in the future!
This reception came complete with a Big Band!
Just when we thought the night was about to wind down, all of the guests were ushered into the Auditorium of Big Bridges where Amy + Victor greeted their friends and family with an amazing choreographed dance on the stage. The guests continued to party on, with beats from Amy + Victor's High School years. It definitely took us back to our High School days!
And, YES, ladies and gentlemen, Amy + Victor ended the night with a bang by having an In-N-Out truck waiting outside with parting burgers for their guests!

Amelia and Justin - We couldn't be more thrilled with these pictures!!! Thank you for capturing so many special moments of the day. It's so fun to relive the memories through these photos. You two are such a talented team and were great to work with. We can't thank you enough!!! We LOVE the photos! We're already talking about finding an excuse to hire you again!
PS - Victor's favorite is the one where our heads are resting against each other during the ceremony - we didn't even remember that happened! Personally, mine is a tie between the one in front of Bridges and in front of the schoolbus!
