Jenna + Matt { Terranea and Wayfarers Rancho Palos Verdes Wedding }

Where do I start? First, you may have already seen a little bit from Jenna + Matt’s Wedding…film style. Second, Jenna is the type of girl that is creative, sweet, organized and again-frickin’-creative. Minus the whole organized part, and we could of been twins separated at birth. Like I mentioned durring the engagement session, Jenna planned her entire day on how she met Matt in Elementary School. Complete with a vintage desk, pencil name cards, pop-quiz invitations, and a dessert table that would make me go into a sugar coma. It definitely helped that Intertwined Events was involved with the day…I don’t always work with coordinators, but when I do I hope it’s the Intertwined girls. Everything turned out even better than I could imagined.

We started the day in my new favorite resort, the Terranea in Palos Verdes. The light was like butter…sweet-sweet-soft-butter. Actually, the entire turned  day out to be just perfect, and I feel so lucky I could be a part of it!

Thanks to Niall and Natalie for getting a few photos of Matt before the first look!

Since Jenna + Matt only had about 20 minutes of natural light after the ceremony…they decided to have a first look. I’m SO happy they did, because I’ve yet to perfect my time-bending-abilities. We ended up with plenty of time to photograph them, the bridal party and family. <3 <3 <3 Plus I just kinda love them.

Okay…so one more since the light was just that amazing.

Since the timeline didn’t allow for me to photograph all of the details, Natalie had my back. Jenna, her mom and the girls of Intertwined did an absolutely-fantastic job turning the Reef Restaurant into something completely magical.

I don’t normally post reception photos…but couldn’t help myself today. It wasn’t enough that Jenna + Matt had an awesome wedding day, they also knew how to party at night!

<3
