Diana and Shayan are a gorgeous couple with a wonderful family and friends. It was a pleasure to document their breathtaking wedding at Wayfarers Chapel on the most glorious summer day.

The Swedenborgian chapel in Rancho Verdes is popular with couples for its stunning sea views, rustic yet elegant interior overflowing with organic greenery and modern wooden finishings. Designed by renowned architect Lloyd Wright, the venue is often called the Glass Church. It is as dreamy as it sounds and the natural light that flows in through the large windows is exquisite and no wonder it's often booked a year or more in advance.

The bride was walked down the aisle by both her parents, who were very proud and emotional, as was the groom. Obviously deeply in love and excited about getting married, Diana and Shayan exchanged wedding vows and rings presented by their young ring bearer. It always adds an extra layer of sentiment when loved ones participate in the ceremony by presenting the rings, doing a reading or song, or signing the certificate. 

Wedding planners Sprinkles of Love Events did an amazing job of the planning and styling, supported by a team of talented vendors, including florist Jasmine Rose Weddings. The bride's bouquet was a sweet creation of colorful blooms in a cascading style that everyone was talking about. Calamigos Ranch was the venue for the wedding reception. The setting keeps in tone with the ceremony venue with rich green and purple luxury linens and florals and soft draping. 

After the ceremony, the bride and bridesmaids wore the coolest leather jackets for the photo shoot. It was a fashion moment that was very true to the couple's style. The couple's endless energy, big smiles and warm laughter was so appreciated and they were both naturals in front of the camera from when the first images were taken until the last spin on the dance floor.
