Rachelle and Danny have an amazing amount of love and support from their family and friends. That definitely set the tone of the day! I went to high school with the bride and groom so it was fun seeing some familiar faces there.
Rachelle got her makeup and hair done at the Grand Pacific Palisades Resort in Carlsbad.
Rachelle is so tiny, I was worried she was going to get lost in her dress! She almost did 🙂
With a little help from her Maid and Matron of Honor!
I adore this image 🙂
They were married at the gorgeous San Luis Rey Mission in Oceanside
I guess I wasn’t as inconspicuous as I thought…
An awesome shot taken by my assistant, Mandi
Another by Mandi, a completely candid moment just after they were pronounced married!
The special garden area 🙂

Rachelle and Danny, I enjoyed spending time with you and your loved ones! Best of luck to you in the future! And give Cruz a cuddle and a kiss for me!
