Geesh!!!  I knew when I went to choose the photos for this one it was going to be difficult!  Angie and Eric and their AMAZING coordinator, Leana Gallagher of Manhattan Occasions, contacted me a little over a year ago in their pursuit of planning a Central Coast destination wedding.  This was a way big deal for them, obviously, as they were committing their lives to each other, but also for their 200 guests traveling from all over the country, mostly New York.

It’s so fun to me to be a part of the wedding weekend, and especially rehearsal dinner.  The buzz you can feel in the air, the excitment of everyone gathered, the anticipation of the next day, the delicious food and wine, and laughter in the background, such joy and celebration!

Angie and Eric’s guests were pleasantly surprised with the attention to details come their wedding weekend.  With everything from their custom gift totes, silkscreened with a great illustration of the 1700’s barn at Santa Margarita Ranch, built by the indians no less, to a train ride in Walt Disney’s first train, topped off with a CRAZY good band {with SIX, yes 6, singers!!!}, at one point, I honestly felt like I was at a rock concert.  A night cap of scotch bar, chocolate dipped creme filled strawberries, oooh and did I mention, they had their after party at Villa Creek, complete with the In n Out truck for a late night snack, can you see how I’m having trouble containing myself?  so rad, I just wanted to hop on one of their buses from the wedding and join the after party!

So, to keep this within reason, I’ll be posting handful of images in this postand more on our Facebook page…….I know you will enjoy!
