Sandra and Robert love life almost as much as they love each other. I’m friends with both of them on Facebook and so over the past six months I’ve been privy to the cute iPhone photos Sandra uploads of their date nights, or the sweet messages they post on each other’s walls when one is out of town and they’re missing each other. It’s actually quite adorable and made me excited for their wedding day. I knew from their Greystone Mansion engagement session that they loved to laugh, so I knew their wedding at The Langham Pasadena was going to be super fun, oh, I was right! Sandra and Robert, thank you for being so fun and so welcoming, I had a truly fantastic time capturing your wedding day. I hope you’re having a blast in Hawaii!
Center of Attention Events pulled the day together and the results were stunning. Big thanks to Candice for second shooting for me!

One of the first things Sandra told me about her wedding was that she would be wearing three different pairs of fabulous shoes. I was very excited about this and I’m very in love with the ruby red pair in the middle.

Robert had a little note sent to Sandra’s room while she was getting ready. Just a little ‘hello’ from her soon-to-be husband. It was very reminiscent of Facebook wall posts I’ve seen from him, but this was the analog version.

Sandra looked absolutely GORGEOUS. I wasn’t surprised because she’s gorgeous every day, but she was positively glowing.

Halfway through the portraits the ruby red shoes came out to play.

The wedding had a roses theme and the deep red hues found throughout the florals and other details provided a rich landscape for the reception.

Irish dancers and a flamenco guitarist and dancer performed at the reception. Such a great way to celebrate both Sandra and Robert’s cultures as well as inject huge amounts of fun into the party!
