I just came across this…it's a photo from our honeymoon that Matt had oh-so-creatively (and sweetly!) "written" on…makes me smile :)

Old friends...

We were incredibly fortunate to have 2 of our close friends be our ahhhhmazing wedding photographers, Taryn & Scott. While you've probably had enough of our wedding photos...especially months after...I had to share because Scott recently posted his version of our special day...here.

Scotty is one of the most wonderful people I've ever known...always kind, HILARIOUS, generous and thoughtful;...did I mention hilarious?! I am so fortunate to have beautiful people like him in my life for so many years. Yes, we've been through a lot together...the ups & downs of highschool, neighbors after college (the fuzzy years), love & weddings...and even though we don't see each other enough, whenever we do, it's right back to highschool again. A comfort and ease that you only have with your bestest, bestest buds :)

Our Lovely Day....

Many thanks to our wonderful families for making this beautiful day possible...and to our fabulous photographers and close friends, Taryn Kent & Scott Chebegia who did an incredible job capturing our lovely day. It was perfect. Here are some of my favorites in no particular order...xoxo

My parent's succulent-filled backyard...where it all happened! To the left is the arbor...overlooking the pacific ocean. Can't imagine a more beautiful place to have married the man of my dreams.

Grandma Christensen's bracelet and clutch...timeless and so, so special.

Taryn!! So glad we got a pic together :)

I LOVE our florist. Thank you for creating my vision, Paula!! xoxo

Random house but we loved the white picket fence.

I stoll a kiss after Matt finished reading his vows...I couldn't help it! They were sooooo sweet!

Matt & his bro...I love this photo...classic.

My wonderful mother-in-law, Janette, made this darling wedding sign for us...

Nothing better than a gorgeous man in a gorgeous suit.

Tissue poms and globe lights...my favorite addition to any event!

Best cake EVER!!!!!! I think I'm the only bride who helped herself to seconds before passing to guests!

It's official!!

I really really really want an excuse to wear this dress again...hmmm.

Our rings...from Brilliant Earth in San Francisco...all ethically & sustainably mined jewelry. Such personalized service...love them.
