Jessica + Bryan - Hacienda de las Flores Wedding

All week the forecast called for rain on their wedding day.  That morning, still expecting rain, the dinner tables at the Hacienda de las Flores were moved inside, and plans were made to have the ceremony outside, but without chairs, in case they needed to move indoors in a hurry.  The clouds rolled in and out, and patches of sunshine danced around, teasing.  As Jessica got dressed with her bridesmaids, she started to relax.  Rain or shine, everything was going to be perfect because she was marrying Bryan.

During the ceremony, while her maid of honor sang Rascal Flatt's "Bless the Broken Road", the sun broke out, and Jessica teared up.  By the time their rings were exchanged, the clouds had parted, and the sun was there to stay for the rest of the afternoon.  The perfect icing on a perfect day.

Jessica and Bryan's wedding was as unique and heartfelt as they are, and every moment was tugged at your heart.  It was the type of wedding that makes you fall in love all over, and I'm so honored to have been there to capture it.

We all know that girls love shoes, and Jessica's pink sequined sandals gave me total shoe envy.

Her dress was gorgeously unique as well, and I loved the beadwork and t-back.

One of the things I love most about Jessica and Bryan is how tender and loving they are with each other.  After their ceremony, they took a few minutes by themselves, and Josh captured this moment.  Love!

During Jessica and Bryan's engagement shoot, I discovered that her smile is positively contagious.  Her wedding day was no different, and there was so much joy, I don't think anyone could keep from smiling.

Their first dance was especially romantic.

To head off to their honeymoon, Jessica and Bryan hired a Bentley, which pretty much made my day.  

Ring shots with the Bentley emblem?  But of course!

Jessica and Bryan, you two are so in love that it inspires everyone around you, and I'm so honored to have been the one to capture it!  Love and happiness... Erin
