Jenn shares her favorite memory and a little info with us…..’My favorite memory was during my first glance session. All my girls were surrounding me and covering me so Dave wouldn’t see me. Once I knew he was walking toward me I felt a silly nervousness, like I was in 6th grade and scared to see the boy I liked. My girls walked away and David tapped me on the shoulder and said, “Hey Bud!”…Instant tears!  He stared at me and wiped my tears. I felt so lucky that I was going to marry a man that could make me feel so special, just by looking at me. I also loved when my dad walked me down the aisle….I looked at my dad and asked him, “Are you ready?” He just laughed! Once I heard the band play my song I grabbed my dad’s arm and walked  straight into mosh pit of love. I saw so many loving familiar faces. And my dad hugged me, gave me words of love and handed me over to my new hubby’

Jenn shares why they choose their venue…….’Dave and I wanted a very  local, intimate, comfortable, fun vintage inspired wedding. We attended a wedding at the villa del sol in Fullerton a year before we got married. We loved being at an outdoor venue. We had no clue that exactly a year from that date we would be back at that venue getting married!!! I live and teach in Fullerton and am intriqued by the historical aspects of Fullerton. Our engagement shoot was taken at several different historical landmarks in Fullerton and being married at the old Californian hotel really embraced my love for Fullerton and vintage styles. Many mornings in the summer, David and I ate breakfast in the courtyard and just loved chilling and eating in that atmosphere.’
