Franciscan Gardens Wedding – Michael & Krista

Mr & Mrs Gordon

Michael and Krista choose Franciscan Gardens for their wedding. This venue is a beautiful hidden gem in the heart of San Juan Capistrano.

Girls Getting Ready

When we walked in the getting ready room it was very calm and relaxed, just as Krista wanted. Her bridal party consisted of two bridesmaids and a flower girl.

Guys Getting Ready

Michael spent his time playing pool and enjoying some time with the guys before the ceremony.

Ceremony

Franciscan Gardens is one of the most dreamy places for a wedding ceremony! This location makes you feel like you are hidden away from the world.

One of my favorite moments from Michael & Krista’s ceremony is the moment she walked down the aisle! The pure joy on her face said it all. The second I turned to capture Michaels reaction I saw they shared the same exact emotion.

Bridal Party & Romantics

What I love most about this wedding is how important friends and family are to these two. We took the photos of just the two of them near by and kept it brief so they could be with their guests.

The Details

I love the gorgeous details from Michael and Krista’s wedding. Krista told me that the loved succulents and wanted to incorporate them in her bouquet. The pearl ring she wore was her aunts which made for an extra special detail.

The Party!

This wedding reception is like no other and I couldn’t imagine it any other way for the Gordons! The main goal for Michael and Krista was for everyone to have a good time and for there to be lots of desserts! They love playing board games so they wanted to make sure there was a space to do so at their wedding. I love that they made their reception perfectly fitting for them!
