There are some couples that just grab your heart. Who leave a mark on it that is so indelible. From the very first moment Christine and I spoke, there was an instant connection. I always feel so blessed when I get to meet people who are as lovely as these two, get to know them as they are on the road to saying ‘I Do’, and then it culminates in documenting their special day. What could be better than this!?!! But when it goes beyond, and turns into an even deeper connection, I literally feel like my heart could burst. Christine and Joe are good, good people. So loving and kind. And everything about their day echoed this. They were surrounded by many amazing cousins, aunts, uncles, family members, and friends. They put so much thought into treating their guests to an amazing time, including a special performance by Jahstix at cocktail hour (one of their favorite musicians from their time spent in Long Beach). Their love of Italy led them to host their day at the Bourne Mansion. With it’s tree-lined brick walkways, large columns, and water views, it was the perfect place for them to tie the knot. Christine’s love of pink and butterflies were sprinkled throughout the day, and she looked absolutely stunning in a one-shoulder lace Jim Hjelm dress and Kate Spade shoes. One of the best parts of the night was a surprise dance by the couple to “Home” by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zero’s. And the dancing didn’t stop there. Guests partied the night away and surrounded this incredibly sweet couple with so much love!
Christine and Joe, you two are so wonderful. I really can’t put into words how great I think you both are, and how nice it’s been getting to know you. Christine, you have turned into a friend, and I am so thankful for that. To see the way Joe treats you and loves you fills my heart up, and I know you two will have an incredible life together! Thank you for giving me the privilege of being a part of your day and your lives!!
