Taking place on the beautiful west coast, this rustic style California wedding took place at totally unique wedding venue. From the photographer: The wedding day we were surprised with a rain storm but nothing could put a damper on their special day. They were surrounded by so much love, friendship, and family. Everyone contributed in their own special way in to make it as perfect as possible. The rain finally let up just in time for everyone to line up and light sparklers to usher Yvone & Chris in to their reception. As the sunset behind them, the sparklers crackled, everyone cheered, and they came running and laughing in. It was the absolute perfect start to their new life together. Thanks to Echo Media Photography for sharing this amazing wedding with us today.
