I don’t even know where to start, this couple and this wedding were absolutely gorgeous and I am SO excited to finally have it up on the blog! Shirley & William were married at the Glendale Hilton surrounded by all of their friends an family in an absolutely beautiful ceremony and a huge party of a reception.

Shirley & William’s day was absolutely perfect, gorgeous southern California weather mixed with a group of people that love to laugh. That is my kind of wedding day.

The girls got ready all together up in the bridal suite.

The guys got ready a few floors down.

Annnnd what California wedding is complete without a little pre ceremony In ‘n Out for the boys?

2 things: 1. I am in LOVE with Shirley’s smile. 2. I am in LOVE with Shirley’s curls!

This would *totally* be me with my puppy.

It is sooooo nice when couples schedule enough time to do all of their bridal party portraits before the ceremony, that means everyone gets to head to the party sooner!

Their ceremony on the courtyard of the hotel was absolutely gorgeous. And, let me say everyone handled it like PROS it was over 100° outside!

This is one of my FAVORITE photos!

After the ceremony we headed off so Shirley & William could have a few minutes alone, and we could take some pretty pictures of them. The Glendale Hilton has a helipad… and they let us use it for their portraits!! Talk about SO fun!!

LOVE!

Seriously? How gorgeous is this lady!? I took about a bazillion photos of her.

Her smile is the BEST!!

As we were walking back around the building to hop in the elevator and head back down to the reception. We HAD to stop for this light. Absolutely unreal.
