Pechanga Wedding Photography

There are so many things that I love to photograph! I love to photography weddings mostly because my clients make it fun for me! Being an Orange County wedding photographer I am lucky enough to photograph weddings in some amazing venues. This wedding was a little far, out in Temecula at the Pechanga Casino. I have to admit, I’m a rookie at Pechanga and have never photographed here before, also this was my very first time here! It was SOOO NICE!

Nicole and Dan went overboard when it came to paying attention to details. I posted some here on this blog but to be honest there are TONS more and I just had to stop at 32 blog pics or those of you reading this would be frustrated on the load time!

I know Dan and Nicole pretty well. I know that they are a relaxed couple and on their wedding the one very important part was to have FUN! They wanted to enjoy themselves, and they wanted their guests to enjoy themselves and they gave me the honor of being responsible to tell their story. It was an exciting day and despite the almost one and a half hour delay…..it was AWESOME!

Dan and Nicole chose to do the first look that because getting ready was taking so long, we almost didn’t do! It was so fun! They are so in love and it was awesome to see it in both of their faces as they saw each other dressed in their wedding attire for their big day! Their reception was over the top! I had never had so much food, and being a guest/vendor at their wedding I was able to eat….and I ate a lot!

They opened their reception with the most amazing choreographed opening dance by the bridal party. It was HILARIOUS!!!! Nicole also changed from her white wedding gown to a brilliant red dress! I think this bridal party danced all night….it was so fun to be at this wedding. I can’t wait to get Nicole and Dan the rest of their images…and I know they love me…seeing I spent my entire Sunday editing and going through images so I can blog….like I try to do the day after all my clients’ weddings…..Love you guys and Dan, please remember you promised to take Marc and I out for a beer….ummm…I never forget!
