Lakerrrrrrs!!!! You know that Tommy and Elizabeth are serious Los Angeles Lakers fans when they choose Gold and Purple for their wedding colors! Kobe was on the invite list, but I guess he was unavailable. Definitely one of the more chill couples that I have met, they helped keep a very relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere on their day by giving out lots of hugs, smiles and laughter (a little early morning Starbucks and McDonalds didn’t hurt either) . . .
Gold shoes required . . .

Shazam!!!
Ceremony in Newport Beach at the contemporary and beautiful St. Marks Presbyterian . . .
Photos and reception followed at the fantastic Turnip Rose in Costa Mesa . . .
Usually guys are a little conservative when I ask them to jump off of something. First time was the charm for this group . . .
Lakers in full effect . . . (flowers by Amanda Heer at Fantasy Floral Designs)
OK, let’s keep the Lakers color theme going!!! The Tunrip Rose Grand Ballroom . . .
Tommy and Elizabeth set the tone for the enitre reception with their awesome and loud grand entrance. They had the entire ballroom on their feet cheering and clapping as they danced in and just kept dancing and dancing and dancing. SO much fun!
Most of the reception was loaded with about a 100 song set chosen by Tommy himself – there was NO stopping.
Check out Orange County DJ Bruce Battleson shredding some beats . . .
If you went to this wedding you were definitely sore the next day and you won’t forget how much fun you had. You know who you are!

I think I just stepped out of the DeLorean, I’m instantaneously taken back to March 27, 2010. The memories and excitement of that day were perfectly captured and preserved by Steve.
Steve did a great job capturing a lot of emotion. The pictures not only display how beautiful the wedding and couple were but also showed how we were all having a really great time.
