When I asked Virginia and Mike which of their wedding photos were most important to them, their answer didn’t surprise me. Family, they said. Virginia + Mike’s families were so interwoven into every aspect of their wedding, from the venue itself, Virginia’s aunt and uncle’s gorgeous home and incredible gardens in Monte Sereno, to the bright and bursting archway of flowers that flanked the ceremony site, made by Virginia’s mother and sister, to the sweet young family that brought us all together: Virginia, Mike, Anthony and Blaze. It was a day of endless celebration, filled with vibrant pops of color, charming sentimental touches (like the handkerchief station “For Happy Tears!”) and two people so very much in love with one another. Virginia and Mike, thank you for bringing us into the fold of your families and sharing your amazing day. Experiencing the love you two share is at the top of the list of benefits we reap from this wonderful job, and we wish you a lifetime of happiness in return.
