Exactly one year before their Olympia’s Valley Estate Wedding, Claire & Ed exchanged vows in the Coast Redwood grove of Lynmar Estate in Sebastopol, California. Their second celebration, held at Olympia's Valley Estate in petaluma the hills, was nestled into the rolling south county hills and surrounded by lush green willows. Hills, willows and a lively abundance of family and friends! It's really fun for me to see groups of folks multiple times throughout our journey together :)
Among the myriad details they and their planner, Lisa at Bravo Weddings, attended to, my favorite was the record album seating chart—a nod to their love of vinyl. They also gifted themselves the luxury of ample coverage, allowing for a relaxed pace throughout the day. With me by their side for a full 10 hours, we could spread out coverage over the course of a stress free day. In real time we can address any needs or preferences, capture more moments organically and roll with any wedding day mishaps instead of being derailed. Minimizing pressure on your wedding day is key.
I could go on and on about the opportunities and incredible corners to use as photography background but I'll pause here. If you're getting married at OVE let's chat; between the posd, the hills at sunset, the horses and walks you have a plethora of photographic options. It's one of reasons the OVE has been a top choice of mine since their opening day, over 8 years ago.
Claire & Ed, thank you for entrusting me with this gorgeous day and for allowing us all to witness your beautiful love!.
