Wedding documentary photography at Millwick by Marvimon in the Arts District of Downtown Los Angeles. Photos by Leo Evidente and Kat Evidente of The Gathering Season.

"And as I sit here, having fallen in love with you from the very beginning, I think to myself that there is no way I can possibly love you more than I do in this very moment.

But I know one thing to be true, it’s that I will go to sleep tonight, wake up tomorrow beside you - and in even deeper love with you than I was the day before.”

Alyssa and Aric's Central California Coast Wedding

 

A day spent in Santa Barbara and on the beautiful central coast is always a day well spent to us. With that said, what Alyssa and Aric had in store for us on their wedding day was really a photographer's dream and an absolute blissful day. From the Ritz Carlton, to a pre-ceremony joyride in an old-school Porsche and right on down to the most amazing little cliff spot where the ceremony took place, we were smiling real big allllll. day. long. One of our favorite parts had to be the stunning floral arrangements by Forage Florals that lined the ceremony location - they were lush and whimsical and packed with the softest texture and color. Yes it was as lovely as it sounds.

Scroll on down to see more of this magic that we can't stop thinkin' about!

Korakia Pensione Wedding - Yas & Ben

 

It's true, we'll probably be dreaming of Korakia Pensione for days, months, years to come. It was an outrageously hot day in Palm Springs but the amount of beauty witnessed Yas and Ben's wedding day completely made up for it. The hotel provided an intimate and cozy environment that really ended up feeling like home as the night was coming to an end. These kids threw a mean party full of dancing, ear to ear grins and the kind of laughter that makes your stomach ache. The kind of night we live for.

Kristel and Michael's Ojai Dream

FEATURED ON GREEN WEDDING SHOES

How many times can we pinch ourselves? This day brought a new definition to magical and we will forever have the best daydreams about it. The wedding took place at Red Tail Ranch, a venue with the most effortless California-cool vibe. We we're constantly ooo-ing and aaa-ing over the mountain view and lush landscape surrounding the property. To add to the beautiful setting, the energy between Kristel and Michael was such a joy to witness - their post-ceremony portrait session was full of laughs, smiles and gazes that had us starry-eyed. It was the sweetest reminder of how amazing love is. Now we could dedicate an entire paragraph to the vibrant florals & breathtaking decor but instead we'll let you keep scrolling so you can see for yourselves!

Jaclyn & Ross got hitched at Hummingbird Nest Ranch

Hummingbird Nest Ranch Wedding // Where to start! We got to know these two lovely souls when we photographed their engagement session in Downtown Los Angeles. It was a total blast so naturally we were looking forward to their wedding day at the beautiful Hummingbird Nest Ranch - It was an absolutely inspiring day from start to finish. Every detail was SO visually and emotionally beautiful and we got to work with a few of our favorite vendors - Kayla Vie, an amazing planner + Twig & Twine Florals. We filled up on love + good vibes and were exhausted (the good kind of tired!) by the dance party & heat. Needless to say, we dreamt AND slept well after.

Yari & Dario's Joshua Tree Elopement

 

Yes we are always up for an adventure but when Yari and Dario said that we'd be heading out to Joshua Tree National Park we were like two kids on Christmas eve night! Elopements hold a special place in our hearts - documenting a private, intimate ceremony between two individuals is truly one of the most magical things we've ever witnessed. With Yari and Dario, it was impossible not to tear up over their bond and the warmth that existed between them. They had picked out a completely surreal spot to exchange vows, it was pure sky and trees for days - it really felt like a little slice of heaven just for us. Alright, enough! But seriously.. such an amazing day! Scroll for more :)
