Anna & Chris | Malibu Solstice Vineyards

Man, talk about tearful weddings. Anna & Chris had such a beautiful intimate wedding, surrounded by their immediate family, and I cried pretty much all day. (Pro tip: if you want to make everyone lose it during the mother/son dance, play Landslide by Fleetwood Mac. Guaranteed tears.)

These two had been through a LOT in the months leading up to this day. A car accident totaling the brand new car they just bought to replace their old car that had been totaled, family health issues which lead to the possibility of some loved ones not being able to attend, and so much more. In the end, everything worked out, and everyone they wanted there was able to celebrate with them. It only made everything that much more meaningful and emotional for everyone. 

The love these two share is inconceivable. Watching them say their vows to each other on the top of a mountain with the pacific ocean off in the distance is one of the most profound things I've ever witnessed. You could tell there was so much behind their words - the pain from the struggles they faced together, the excitement of this new chapter in their lives, and the unconditional love and support they have for each other which has proven to be true no matter what obstacles come their way. 

Anna & Chris, thank you for letting me be a part of this incredible day. I was so touched by your story and humbled by your families!
