Christina and Frank get hitched!

On Saturday June 20th I got the honor of attending a wedding as a guest…not the photographer!

My good friends Frank and Christina were married and I was so happy I could be there for them!

But first, let me rewind to the day prior, the rehearsal dinner!  Christina asked me to cover the night and it was wonderful!  It was a fiesta theme and the fabulous Brenda Swann was there to help pull it off!

The kiddos immediately went for the candy bar!

And a few photos from the wedding day!  I was a guest and I knew that Anika London had the photo/video covered!  But no one was going to be with Frank the morning of and Christina was curious to what he was doing!  So I headed to the Carlsbad Marriott to check in with Frank and his guys!

For being a guest, I still took a lot of photos 😉  I did hand the camera off to Tim for awhile when I want to dance!
