LA wedding 9.25.11

back from the west coast once again.  it's rainy here and i'm still on a different time zone -- california, why must you tease me with your weather.

another whirlwind trip but this one was all play and no work...woop woop!

we had a blast and i would have loved to stay another day soaking up the sun at Terrenea.  i'll let the photos do the talking.

pre-wedding:
kicking off the weekend the right way with cocktails on the veranda at Terrenea.  gorgeous ocean views and good company.

rehearsal:
i love that maggie & sean chose to have a casual, italian-style late lunch for their rehersal.  it was perfect mix of family, friends and delicious food.  i was so happy to be able to get another use out of my silk JCrew collection romper.

getting ready:
maggie was SO sweet to invite me to hang in the bridal suite and get ready with all of the bridesmaids.  this is always a favorite part of any wedding for me.  spending time with your friends, hair & make-up, and a bit of champagne - a girl's dream day!

wedding!
and finally the big sha-bang!  the "marine layer" mist lifted right in time for a gorgeous outdoor ceremony. it was so special and Sean's dad performed the ceremony.  my tear ducts started swelling when they read a poem by E.E. cummings and a quote from the movie When Harry Met Sally.
