This fabulous bride and groom led their own PARADE ???? in the streets of downtown Carmel, I mean, why not lead your own parade on your wedding day!?!   They had us smiling all day long! The way they look at each other gave us chills, and their venues were incredible! They had a beautiful ceremony at The Church of the Wayfarer, which was Jess’ grandmothers church when Jess was growing up. She spent many Easter Sundays there and when we arrived at the church it was like walking down memory lane! It was an extra special ceremony because of all the wonderful memories she already had within those walls. After the ceremony they walked up the aisle, rang the ish out of the wedding bell and paraded down the street with all of their guests! We stopped traffic for a moment and we truly felt like we were in a movie! Then we headed over to Mission Ranch which is a super cute property owned by Clint Eastwood and it even has sheep and a view of the ocean!

We loved their wedding details, especially the ring set combination of rose gold and yellow gold, and we were obsessed with a stunning yellow diamond! We love when our couples get creative in their wedding planning and have a day of celebration based on who they are as a couple. Like we said, this couple led a parade down the street in Carmel after their ceremony, and we loved every moment of it! This wedding was timeless, classy and elegant (our favorite combination) and this was our third wedding of the weekend and we had a moment of realizing how truly thankful we are to do what we love…photographing weddings and working together is life giving in every way! In the moments where we should be exhausted we were filled with joy as we photographed this couple vowing their lives to each other. And we loved everything about being in Carmel at Clint Eastwood’s property: Mission Ranch, just wait till you see the sheep!
