Jacob and Adria...part one!

Jacob and Adria were married last week in a lovely outdoor setting in Lincoln, CA.  I've been trying to finish this blog post for over an hour now, but it's so hard to choose which of these gorgeous photos to share -- there are SO many!  Outdoor weddings are the best!  :D

I'm impressed that Adria chose late-afternoon for her wedding because she wanted the light to be good for the photos.  Way to go, Adria!  :)  It was just perfect!  Warm, golden California late-afternoon light is the best...especially in a lovely outdoor setting with oaks and green grass and all sorts of beautiful decorating details.  Doesn't get much better than that!  We all would have appreciated cooler weather (especially Adria in her very lovely, but very warm, dress!) but thankfully the heat gradually moderated and we enjoyed a warm summer evening.

Here's a sampling of photos from their day.  Like I said, there are so many awesome ones, it was NOT easy to choose just a few for this post!  :)  There will be many more coming as I work through them -- can't wait!






The wedding was held at the home of Adria's uncle, Jim.  I love all the big oaks on his property!


Jacob helping Adria's dad with his tux (these things are complicated!).


Adria has a knack for finding beautiful jewelry!  She got this lovely bracelet, and her necklace, here.






Jacob and his sweet mother, Gypso


The famous "Father of the Bride" hat! :)



Getting ready...Adria touching up Gypso's makeup



Adria's friend Christi designed this beautiful hair piece for her:


The bridesmaids also wore pretty hair ornaments -- so fun!



Adria also makes and sells lovely jewelry herself, and she designed bracelets and necklaces for her bridesmaids to wear for the wedding.  (If you'd like to see more of her work, you can visit her online storefront here!)












Adria's grandmother performed the simple, heartfelt ceremony.  Here she is with her daughter Ruth (Adria's mom) and Jacob's mother.



  

 


 Adria made the pretty floral/manzanita arch behind her and Jacob.  So creative!






Such a fun wedding party! :)


Uhh...? ;)


Eek!  Kissing!










And there are many, many more photos!  Stay tuned!  :)
