Descanso Gardens Wedding: Matt + Annika

September 16, 2015

Matt & Annika are such a sweet couple! They had their wedding at the Descanso Gardens in La Cañada Flintridge, CA. The day didn’t go as planned because they were supposed to have a garden ceremony but the weather had a different idea… lots of rain! The ceremony was moved inside to the reception area and it was perfect. The wedding was wonderful! It was warm and cozy as Matt & Annika stood inside surrounded by family & friends. After the ceremony we were determined to get photos outside and rain was not going to stop us. Thanks to my second shooter Marlena, who held an umbrella over me so that I can take photos and thank you to the ladies at Descanso Gardens who held umbrellas over Matt & Annika so that they wouldn’t get soaked. Matt, Annika along with their family and wedding party were amazing! Their reception was a blast with great food, wonderful speeches and lots of fun dancing including some awesome dance offs. When the wedding was over they had a super cute Volkswagen Beetle that belongs to Annika’s parents as their get away car. I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I did creating them!
