Vista Valley Country Club Wedding Photography | Christina + Syl
Christina and Syl finally tied the knot last Saturday at the beautiful Vista Valley Country Club in San Diego. I say "finally" because Syl said in his toast that he had been waiting for this day for 22 years. Yes, 22 years people! Syl saw Christina for the first time in the third grade. He thought she was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. So, one day he summoned up the courage to ask Christina if he could walk her home from school. Apparently she shot him down. But Syl didn't give up. He knew she was the perfect girl for him.Later in life, Syl became best friends with Christina's brother. But still she didn't give poor Syl the time of day. But one day everything changed. She was finally ready to let Syl in to her life and realized everything she ever needed had been in front of her all along! I absolutely LOVE that! It may have taken over twenty years, but Syl just proves that good things come to those who wait! And, I loved witnessing these two commit to each other forever & ever! It was truly a happy happy day!!Thanks so much Tina & Syl for trusting me with your big day! I LOVED meeting your sweet friends and family and documenting your joy! Also thanks to Sarina Love so much for second shooting with me!And now....onto pictures and a slide show!LOVE this dress shot! Thanks to groomsman Danny for helping us get the dress to hang from the chandelier! :D
I love these cute shoes!! Any shoe with a bow or ruffle is okay by me!!! ;)
There was so much anticipation in the room as Christina was getting ready!!
But everyone was so happy and excited once she was all ready to go!!!
How GORGEOUS are Christina & Syl?! Seriously these two make one very fine looking couple!!!
Christina and Syl chose to do a First Look which left time for bridal party pictures before the ceremony! That is one of the great benefits to a First Look, so much more time for pictures, and in turn a much more relaxed bride & groom! I think the bridal party really rocked it out for this photo!!!
'Tina and her girls!! Love it!!!!
I LOVE the pretty programs 'Tina made for the ceremony!! Just GORGEOUS!!
Christina and Syl had some good laughs during their ceremony which just goes to prove they are my kind of people!!! :)
After the ceremony we made good use of the GORGEOUS sunset light!! :)
Um...how FIERCE are these two?! I LOVE it!! One of my favorite shots EVER. For sure.
Work it outttt you two!
I LOVE the way these two are looking at each other. That is some serious attraction!
Christina, you are GORGEOUS girl!! She kinda looks like J.Lo to me...only SEXIER!
I love this photo too!! It feels so intimate! Like they are in their own little world! And I LOVE that! I love that my clients are comfy enough with me to just relax and be themselves in their own little world while I snap away!!! :)
The reception was decorated beautifully! Love that they chose to have two different centerpieces!
I don't usually post reception pics in my blog posts (I save those gems for the slide show) BUT I love this photo from Christina & Syl's first dance! I had my 85mm on so I was able to get in tight and really capture their emotion! And they were just so happy together! So sweet....sigh...
