Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel Wedding, Part One | Omair and Christy
Christy couldn’t wait to see the look on Omair’s face when he saw her as a bride… and long before their wedding day came, it was the moment Omair had been dreaming of, too.
He couldn’t wait to see Christy for the first time wearing the dress she had chosen, twirl her around, and stand arm-in-arm overlooking the sweeping ocean view in the moments before saying “I do.”
When the moment came and Omair laid his eyes on her (on the steps of an oh-so-stunning staircase), it was everything both of them had dreamed it would be. Their hearts were completely calm and everything became so, so real!
(And Jeff and I are absolutely *giddy* over how gorgeous these images are!!)
Omair and Christy’s wedding day had so many sweet, quiet moments like this one: bathed in sunshine and anticipation and pure bliss. It was exactly the calm wedding day they had hoped for – they didn’t want to get caught up in anything besides celebrating the fact that they were in LOVE and they were getting married!
They chose the beautiful Ritz Carlton, Laguna Niguel to celebrate with their family and friends, some of whom came from across the world to attend! It was the most luxurious, timeless place to begin their next chapter – we love this place!
We begin with the moments before their ceremony, and these portraits are TO. DIE. FOR. I’m so excited to share them with you!!
