I was the wedding photographer for a very sweet and special couple in Temecula. I had the opportunity to photograph Dani and Gavin’s wedding day. They decided to get married in their backyard near Temecula, CA! It was so perfect for them. I absolutely loved the way that the day turned out.
This backyard wedding near Temecula, CA reminded me that there is so much more to wedding days than the details may suggest. It was great to see Dani and Gavin put so many unique touches on the day. Backyard weddings are so memorable, especially when it is the home the bride grew up in! It filled me with so much joy to see Dani and Gavin be at peace on their wedding day. They both felt comfortable while in a familiar setting and could focus on being present with each other throughout the day. Dani and Gavin are loved by so many people that were able to help them celebrate.
Some of my favorite moments included: the laid back, slow morning getting ready, with all the girls praying over Dani. Her first look with her dad (ugh, so sweet), and of course all her girls. The cute flower girls – and all the kiddos! When Dani changed into sneakers for the rest of the day right after the ceremony. The coffee truck, the fire pits, and the laid back, cozy vibes. The beautiful view we found for portraits and the sunset! All the love between them and their families. THEM. Such cutie pies! It was such an honor to be apart of this very special day.
Another backyard wedding is hopefully in my near future! Being this Temecula Wedding photographer made my heart so full 🙂
Dani and Gavin decided to do a first look before the ceremony. The way Gavin looked at Dani when he saw her for the first time was so so sweet.
Dani and Gavin did such a wonderful job of adding their own personal touches to the ceremony space.
