It was last fall when I last saw Sara and Chris; we had done our engagement session in San Diego’s Gaslamp neighborhood, and I had so much fun getting to know them better! I couldn’t wait for their Lincolnshire Marriott wedding, and it didn’t disappoint! I started my day with Sara as she got ready at the hotel. We did a first look outside, and then we wandered around the area for some fun photos with the wedding party. Temperatures were in the low 90s, and it was hot! The entire wedding party was fantastic, and I don’t think I even heard anyone complain! (But no one dissented when we headed back inside the air-conditioned hotel.) We jumped on board a trolley and headed for the ceremony at the church. We were running a little bit early, so everyone had a chance to freshen up and cool off. After the ceremony, it was back to the Lincolnshire Marriott for the reception! Sara and Chris had hired the fantastic Katie Parker as their planner, and she did a great job making sure the day went smoothly. After dinner, everyone packed the dance floor all night to celebrate with the bride and groom. Congratulations again, Sara and Chris! Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to document your wedding day. I wish you nothing but the best!

The wedding rehearsal shoes, as they weren’t the most comfortable to wear all day during the wedding. But they were still awesome!
Time for the first look!
I love this one:
And this one, too:
The kids kept themselves entertained before the ceremony:
A little breeze throughout the day made Sara’s veil go everywhere!
Awesome cake cutting…

We snuck outside for a quick photo at the end of the night!
