Even though I spend such a short time with each bride, sometimes that short time is a very good glimpse into her life. And in my short time that I spent with Meghan, if I had to sum it up in a short sentence, it would be "She is surrounded by people who love her [...]
Both Paula and Tuto are young doctors (interpreted "no time to barely even sleep"), so much of the planning and coordinating was done by her amazing mom, Lily. Paula, (again because she's a young doctor) doesn't usually devote lots of time to dolling herself up for work! So getting to meet her for her trial [...]
Even though it rained on and off the afternoon of their wedding (much later in the season than it normally would have!), that certainly didn't stop Teresa & Ben from celebrating their wedding with anything less than smiles and lots and lots of love! Photographer: Sylvia Guardia Planner: Mil Besos
I love the few hours I get to spend in the room with the bride getting her and her best girls ready. The mood is always charged with energy. Everyone's festive.

I then got to meet her and Ernest late last year [...]

When I saw the photos, I realized [...]

The best wedding day prep sessions are those spent in an ocean view hotel room, with a bride who is beautifully charming and surrounded by a group of her closest friends. They sip champagne, dance around the room, laugh, joke and celebrate the day! That's exactly the day we spent with Ashley. Ashley was kind [...]
