Kristen & Greg {Wedding} Hartley Botanica

You may remember Greg and Kristen from their engagement session a few months ago. Their engagement session is still one of my most favorites! So I was super excited for their wedding. They were married at Hartley Botanica in Somis, CA.

The dress is Maggie Sottero….and guess what my wedding dress was Maggie Sottero too!!! I love having things in common with my brides.;)

Betsey Johnson shoes:

This little angel pin was pinned to the inner lining of her dress, it’s passed through the family!

All morning long she was talking about the groom’s gift she got for Greg and she was so excited about giving it to him. I’ve never seen someone so excited to give a gift to someone! Here she is reading the text from him after he received it. And the bracelet she’s wearing is his gift to her.

This is what she got him:

Getting the dress on was a labor of love! Her sister made sure it was done perfectly!

So I’m pretty sure this girls thought I was crazy, but I LOVED the bows on the back of the dresses so I had them all turned around. They might have been a little offended…but I love the bows!!

She got her girls these necklaces:

Kristen set up a cigar bar for Greg complete with a sign with his name! More on this later.

Reaction to dad’s toast:

I really don’t think she liked getting cake on her face but her expression is priceless!

It’s a tradition for the men in the family to sing to the bride. So sweet!!!

So here’s some proof that I do NOT look cute wedding shooting weddings! I wish there was a way to be cute and work for 10-ish hours but not so much. I had to get a picture with me and my past bride Aundrea!!!

And then a pic of us with past and present couples!
