"We wanted to have an intimate, outdoor wedding in a city with perpetual sunshine, which is how we chose Temecula. I pictured a timeless theme of blush and gold with a romantic atmosphere with lots of candles and flowers. My dress ended up being the opposite of what I envisioned myself in. I thought I would wear a simple gown with no floof or sparkles. I ended up falling in love with a princess ball gown with lace and all the glitter. I left my husband's suit choice entirely up to him, and he did amazing. Having someone who knew all things wedding and could make the best recommendations, which ended up being our wedding coordinator, Cara. We were both really busy with school, so we couldn't spend a lot of time researching. Photography was definitely the area we decided to splurge on. We were going to skip videography but decided to go for it at the last minute, and it was the best decision ever." -bride
