Luce Loft is a wonderful urban space in down town San Diego.  One of the great things about this space is it’s versatility for events from birthday parties to elaborate weddings.  It’s an open loft style building with a built in kitchen and a sweet up stairs interior balcony.

We partnered up with Sandra from Sandra Nicole Designs and Amanda of Thorne Artistry to create a fun bridal styling photo shoot using the unique aspects of the Luce Loft space.  The concept behind the shoot was to show how different accessories,  jewelry and hair styling can make a single wedding dress look so very different.

Check out what these amazing ladies came up with.

Stephen and Teresa’s Prado Wedding Reception was the best mixture of elegant and fun.  

Stephen and Teresa were married over at the Carmelite Monastery in the Kensington neighborhood of San Diego.  After the ceremony everyone popped into their cars or Limos and headed over to Balboa Park for the reception.  We stole off with Stephen, Teresa and an umbrella for some incredible wet and rainy pictures.  The storm clouds were smiling upon us because it poured all the way from the monastery to the park but when it came time for photos we were blessed with the lightest of drizzles.

After some dancing in the rain Stephen and Teresa headed into the ball room at the Prado to get their party started!  And a party it was, they kicked it off with heart felt toasts and once the dancing started it never stopped.  When people weren’t dancing they were jumping into the photo booth with hats and mustaches for some funny photos.  The cake had been cut, the bouquet tossed and when we thought there couldn’t be any more everyone started dancing the polka!  Stephen and Teresa had the party that their friends are all still talking about.
