san joaquin river parkway wedding: layla & daniel

So much love for these two. Sometimes people ask me, “are you bummed when you shoot a friend’s wedding because you don’t get to enjoy it?”. My answer is always a resounding “Heck no! I get to hang out with them all day!” In this case, Adam and I got to hang out with them for two days because the day after we headed up to one of their favorites spots, Yosemite (those photos will come soon!). This all feels like an incredible honor.

Layla and Daniel created a beautiful wedding at the San Joaquin River Parkway in Fresno. Layla and her bridesmaids hand wrapped the bouquets the day before the wedding. Daniel built the communion table that was used at the ceremony. You could see their artistic touches throughout the day as well as their extreme hospitality. Stay tuned for some Yosemite magic! bridesmaid dress laying on the bed bride writing vows Fresno-Wedding-Photography-13 bride dancing with father Fresno-Wedding-Photography-12 wedding bouquet at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding Fresno-Wedding-Photography-18 bride putting on dress little boys playing piano before wedding starts groomsmen down the hall art that groomsman made groom and groomsmen getting ready groomsmen drinking an 805 beer rings on art that the groom made groom putting on shoes Fresno-Wedding-Photography-8 Fresno-Wedding-Photography-97 Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding flowers before wedding starts flower girls before wedding starts Fresno-Wedding-Photography-66 Fresno-Wedding-Photography-65 bride with father Fresno-Wedding-Photography-28 bride at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding groom at whole wedding party - pink dress and gray suits Fresno-Wedding-Photography-51 first look with bride and groom bride and groom praying Fresno-Wedding-Photography-31 bride and groom in garden Fresno-Wedding-Photography-24 bride and groom at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding Fresno-Wedding-Photography-56 Fresno-Wedding-Photography-58 Fresno-Wedding-Photography-54 bride with bridesmaids at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding brides with bridesmaids at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding groomsmen in gray suits whole wedding party - pink dress and gray suits Fresno-Wedding-Photography-46 handmade communion table at wedding mother and father of the bride walking down the asile flower girl walking down aisle bride walking with her father with Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway house in background groom seeing bride walk down the aisle at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding groom hugging father of the bride at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding father giving daughter away at wedding Fresno-Wedding-Photography-78 bride and groom at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding guests at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding Fresno-Wedding-Photography-77 Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding music at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding bride and groom first kiss at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding Bride and Groom walking down aisle after first kissFresno-Wedding-Photography-92 girl holding appetizers at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding little boy at Wedding Party at San Joaquin River Parkway Wedding bride and groom arriving at wedding reception at Pardini's Catering in Fresno, California table setting at wedding reception at Pardini's Catering in Fresno, California Wedding cake at wedding reception at Pardini's Catering in Fresno, California macaroon wedding favors brother giving speech during wedding reception bride listening to speech during wedding reception Fresno-Wedding-Photography-111 Fresno-Wedding-Photography-106 bride listening to speech during wedding reception bride and groom giving speeches at wedding reception Bride and Groom Dancing at Wedding Reception Bride and Groom Cutting the cake at wedding reception Bride greeting guests at wedding reception at Pardini's Catering in Fresno, California Guests Dancing At Wedding Reception Guests Dancing At Wedding Reception Guests Dancing At Wedding Reception Fresno-Wedding-Photography-118 Guests Dancing At Wedding Reception Guests Dancing At Wedding Reception Guests Dancing At Wedding Reception Bride and Groom being lifted up at wedding receptionAwesome vendors: Weddings by Cassandra // San Joaquin River Parkway // Pardini’s

      I believe it was at Pardinis. They did a great job with food and the room was perfect for the party.ReplyCancel
