Congrats Mr & Mrs Strong

I was so honored to be a witness these two express their love to one another. Marissa a.k.a "Friend" and I used to work together at the pedo dentist. We were co-workers, carpool buddies, and became close friends. We had a blast at her bachelorette party in Vegas back in June. And finally her wedding date arrived,  August 10th.  

The day was spectacular and breathtaking. The venue, Ponte Winery in the beautiful Temecula Wine Country made for the picture perfect backdrop for the vows. Friend looked gorgeous in her dress, her handsome groom, and the love that you felt from family and friends. 

The ceremony had perfect non-traditional music, short and sweet, and you felt the love they have for one another. Once the ceremony was over we got to enjoy more tunes from the DJ and sipped on beer (for me and a few others) and wine in the garden before we were taken to the reception area in the Barrel Room. 

The Barrel Room in an of itself was stunning, dinner was yummy, Maid of Honor and Best Woman speech had  enough laughs and sentimental moments.  The Dj played the latest hits, some oldies, and a little Latina music to keep the dance floor moving all night. 

I think my favorite part which I didn't find out until later was the fact that the Friend's Dad made her wedding cake and grooms cake. And let me tell you it was the best wedding cake i have had besides my own wedding cake. Perfect combination of frosting and moist and most of all chocolate!! I was very tempted to eat another guests, that's how good it was. 

My phone was dying so I wasn't able to take a lot of photos and I was having way too much fun, but here are a few I was able to snap. I can't wait to see the wedding photos from Lisa Lane Photography.
