Christa + Aaron at Mission Ranch

The bride can't hide her excitement on the big day. And check out those fabulous purple heels—what a fun way to add a splash of color!

Her lace wedding dress is absolutely stunning!

The wedding ceremony. The natural light coming in through the large glass windows is just perfection.

How awesome is this view of the church ceremony?

A great shot of the bridal party. The bridesmaids look amazing in their aubergine dresses and baby's breath bouquets.

The bride looks so happy and relaxed to be hanging with her best girlfriends!

A timeless black and white wedding portrait.

What a cool shot! We love how this camera technique creates a rounded image.

An old, rustic green truck is a chic contrast to the modern attire of the bride and groom.

Ready for the reception?

Once a working dairy, Mission Ranch is a rustic retreat with historic buildings, surrounded by 100-year-old cypress trees and natural landscaping.

The wedding program and champagne-shaped bubbles for the guests.

The vibrant purple and red flowers really pop against the white linens. A matching purple ribbon was used to tie off the candy wedding favors.

Tables named after destinations. We love that postcards were used—what a creative idea!

This 'Our Road To Love' storyboard mapped out the newlywed's love story for guests.

The couple caught in a beautiful candid moment, laughing during the reception.

We love that the only thing in focus in this picture are the wedding rings.
