Amber and Derek

Rancho Palos Verdes, Ca

It was a perfect spring wedding day for Amber + Derek’s wedding at Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes, Ca. This venue is one of the most beautiful wedding venues in southern California, with its Mediterranean-inspired architecture, Terranea Resort is really the perfect backdrop for a wedding. Terranea is located on the picturesque Palos Verdes Peninsula with over 100 acres of stunning oceanfront property. Plus, you don’t have to look too hard to see the dolphins swimming and playing in the ocean at least once a day.

Wedding Details

Amber + Derek were an absolute dream to work with – both were so thoughtful, kind and easy going. They did have one main request – that their fur babies were incorporated into the wedding day photos. I know it can be hard adding pets into a wedding day timeline but I sure do love when my couples choose to do so. The details were gorgeous and meticulously planned and designed by Jen from First Pick Planning. All of the paper and calligraphy elements were hand painted by the talented Sam Allen Creates. The ceremony was so sweet, full of love and laughter and officiated by Amber’s brother, Kevin. He filled the ceremony with the BEST stories of the couple (truly, one of the best ceremonies I’ve heard!).  The evening continued with the cocktail hour and reception and was full of love, family, friends, cheers and lots of dancing!

I hope you enjoy Amber + Derek’s wedding and all the beautiful details that went into making their day so special.
