Jon + Lane - Wedding - Beachside Ceremony at the Mandalay Oxnard Ca. by Ulices Del Toro

It is always a beautiful experience to see your good friends having the day of their lives. I have been friends with Jon for a while now. He is also an artist, and we have collaborated on many projects together over the years. I have watched him grow into the person he is today, and I am proud to call him a close friend.

It has been really amazing to watch Jon and Lane’s relationship grow. They have travelled and done so many great things together, and when we see them together it is clear they are meant for one another. Their wedding day was a reflection of all the happiness their life together has brought, and we were fortunate to be the ones there to capture that.

Elysia + Lauren - Wedding - Ethereal Gardens Escondido Ca. by Ulices Del Toro

We’ve always enjoyed Ethereal Gardens. If you’ve ever been to their venues you know that they really have a wow factor, but aside from that, their staff is always so caring and just all around great people. Add that with an already amazing couple, some energetic and fun guests, and some bomb food, you have the perfect recipe for an amazing wedding!

Lauren and Elysia are so much fun, we were fortunate enough to have met them through a referral, and we all hit it off pretty quick. We really got to know them during their engagement session, so we had an idea what we were in for, but once we stepped onto the venue in Escondido California, we knew it was going to be really special. Both of the bridal suites were so beautiful and were a perfect space for both Lauren and Elysia to get ready in and enjoy that time before the wedding started. The ceremony took place in a beautifully rustic barn just above the reception area. They had a friend play music for the guests, and the seating was so perfectly intimate.

The reception was just incredible, right at the beginning of their grand entrance, you could feel the energy in the room, everyone was ready to dance, laugh and have the best time! We had an incredible night with Lauren, Elysia and all of their friends and family. We cannot thank them enough for having us be a part of such a special day.

Jimmy + Jessica - Wedding - Dancing Through the Night in Los Angeles by Ulices Del Toro

We get to do so many amazing weddings year to year, but every once in a while we have a wedding that really stands out from the rest. Jimmy + Jessica’s wedding did exactly that. The entire day was a perfectly emotional day, filled with so much love from friends and family. Their wedding took place at Shepherd Church in Woodland Hills. The inside of the church was such a fun place to have their ceremony, and all of their photos turned out pretty amazing.

The reception is what really set everything over the top. Jimmy + Jessica had their wedding at a small little hidden venue in Los Angeles. They had chosen this venue because they did not have a limit on how long the party could go to, and they had planned on using that! Every single person brought the energy, and every little moment was just so fun, from their grand entrance, to their first dance, and the special performance the entire wedding party put on for everyone all the way through partying and dancing until the next morning!

Jimmy and Jessica are truly amazing, we are excited to watch them grow as a couple and feel so honored to have been part of their big day!

Sam + Alexa - Wedding - Ranch Style Wedding in the Foothills of the San Bernardino Mountains by Ulices Del Toro

This beautiful ranch style wedding took place in the foothills of the San Bernardino mountains, in the little known town of Devore. It was a perfect setting for Sam + Alexa who wanted a very intimate wedding with their family and friends.

What was so great about this wedding was all the work they put into the details. Sam and Alexa made most of the decor, and completely constructed the ceremony location that turned out to be just amazing. It was a perfect wedding for a perfect couple. There really isn’t much we can say, you have to take a look for yourself!

Irvin + Jocelyn - Wedding - San Diego Ca at The Moniker Warehouse by Ulices Del Toro

One of our favorite things about weddings is love itself. And seeing our couples express their love, their excitement, their adoration for each other, is why we do what we do. Irvin and Jocelyn have so much love for each other, and we were fortunate enough to be the ones to capture it for them.

These two took us down to beautiful San Diego California for their wedding day. Jocelyn got herself ready at a beautiful AirBnB in a private residential area of San Diego known as Talmadge while Irvin got himself ready at the Hilton Garden Inn in Downtown Bayside.

The rest of the day we spent at this incredible coffee shop turned venue in East Village known as the Moniker Warehouse. This place is stunning, and really set the right kind of vibes Irvin and Jocelyn were putting out. If you got to know them, you knew this place was perfect for them. And you could really feel the emotions in the air. Everyone took their seats, Irvin walked out and all of their wedding party made their way out one by one. When Jocelyn finally came out and walked down the isle, Irvin could not hold his emotions in. We love that, we love a couple that aren’t afraid to show their love for each other. and neither of them held back.

The rest of the night was a dream, we took pictures outside at night which made for some really awesome photos. Everyone danced, we cut the cake, heard some really great speeches and partied. We had so much fun celebrating with these two and are just honored they chose us to help them capture these memories.

Kevin + Melissa - Wedding - Fullerton Ca by Ulices Del Toro

There are certain aspects of different weddings that tend to really stick out to us, and we always remember those things when we look back at all the great weddings we have photographed. But Kevin and Melissa’s wedding, EVERY aspect of the day really stuck out.

The day started out pretty casual at Melissa’s house. She had laid out her dress, her shoes, and all her accessories. As we started we also met the videography team from Yours Truly Media, and we hit it off with them right away. And that was only the beginning of a really fun day with them.

We all headed over to All Souls Church in the city of Alhambra. It was a really big beautiful church. The staff there was very welcoming and we had so much fun capturing the beauty of the old cathedral. When the ceremony was over we headed over for a little treat. Melissa wanted to stop by her old work at Fosselmans Ice Cream in Glendora. It was such a cute place to start their photography session. The ice cream parlor has been open for over a hundred years now, it was really awesome to photograph in a place like that with so much history!

We finally headed down to Downtown Fullerton where they were going to have their reception at Villa Del Sol. This was our first time photographing at Villa Del Sol, and we were completely taken back by how beautiful this venue was. We took our time to play around and find awesome places in the venue to take some photos before we hit the streets of Downtown Fullerton for a little session on the streets.

Gino from Euphoric Events Entertainment was our DJ for the night, and man did he get the night started! He kept everyone on their feet all night, we had so much fun dancing with everyone and capturing all of Kevin and Melissa’s family and friends having the time of their lives!

Also had an excellent experience working with the videography team at Yours Truly Media.

Gus + Teresa - Wedding - Pasadena Ca at the Altadena Town and Country Club by Ulices Del Toro

Sometimes it is really hard to predict the weather, but when it comes to your wedding day, you should never let that get you down. this wedding was a perfect example of that. It was a gloomy morning in Pasadena California on this day, but both Gus and Teresa were completely unbothered, and completely excited for the day.

Everything took place at the beautiful Altadena Town and Country Club, and they were more than prepared for these types of situations. They had to make arrangements to move the wedding completely indoors, because by the time Teresa had her dress on, it was pouring outside. But the venue made those accommodations in the blink of any eye. And honestly, no one would have assumed any different.

The day stayed on schedule, and went as planned, and everything about this wedding was just amazing. The venue looked great, the details were perfect, and our couple looked amazing. We had a wonderful time enjoying this day along with them.
