Fairytale Forest Wedding at Descanso Gardens // Michael & Stephanie

Our day from the beginning to end felt like such a blessing. The entire day went so smoothly and peaceful, it definitely felt like our loved ones from above were watching over us. From the deer after our first look, to all the animals and butterflies and rays of light shining down at the ceremony. The entire day felt like a fairytale dream! The morning of our wedding we both felt very nervous but excited. That morning while getting ready the entire process was so calm and relaxing for the both of us and our wedding party. We can both agree we were looking forward to the saying our vows to each other in front of all our friends and family.

Our favorite moment of our wedding day was our last song played by the Beatles – Hey Jude. All our friends and family circled around us and sang along and waved their hands to the song. We felt so much love from all our friends and family.

We had decided on seeing each other in a  first look. I felt extremely nervous and walking down and seeing Michael’s back to me I felt butterflies in my stomach and started tearing up. I was so excited to see him! When we saw each other we both felt so happy and felt a sense of joy seeing each other after a long morning. It felt like majority of our nerves had slipped away and I think this really hit us that we were going to get married.
