Mike and Ashley were married in The Meeting House at Carillon Beach. Their ceremony was performed by a close friend, Edwin Caraballo, the Bible Chaplain for the Chicago Cubs.
Beautiful totes were given to the guests with a hand drawn flower, by Ashley, printed on the front. Pinned to the totes were handmade flowers that were made by Ashley and her mother. The bridal bouquet was wrapped with her mom’s handkerchief and rosary.
Mike and Ashley’s friends have so many beautiful children. They all took part in the day.
Rhonda of Confections on the Coast, designed the bridal cake to mimic Ashley’s Vera Wang gown. It was truly beautiful.
The signature cocktail was Love Potion Number 14…. Mike’s uniform number with the San Francisco Giants is 14. Cute!
Once the party got started, Ashley changed into a pair of custom made Converse All Stars.
Amazing as always! I am striving to be at least half as good as you and Mechael. Just gorgeous!
The pictures reflect the feeling of the night – it was a fairytale come true for Ashley and Mike. Thank you for giving us memories to treasure forever!
Fabulous!! Ashley and Mike were such a wonderful couple!! I remember looking over and watching Paul get that awesome shot with Ashley’s converses… what a perfect night! You both are so talented! We’re honored to work with you as much as we do!
What a sweet couple! (The pometini is my favorite drink.) I love the echo of the gown in the cake. The bouquet wrap was a great touch; I love details that are meaningful.
Such a beautiful couple. Ashley has a truly contagious smile. I know where I’m going for mother of the bride advice in 15+(?) years. The sparklers add a magical touch.
I have gotten so many compliments on these photos! Y’all did such an amazing job. Thank you again for making these memories so beautiful! Hope to see you in Louisiana soon!
Honestly I don’t know how I missed this post when you first published it! Absolutely gorgeous in every way. Such a fun couple and wedding, you really captured the enthusiasm Ashley & Mike have for life and love.
Absolutely love your work… I’m an aspiring photographer myself, but I just wanted to take the time to let you know.
Best of luck!
