the wedding day

Liz and Favian’s love story blossomed into a memorable wedding day filled with elegant touches and rustic charm. Andrew and I had the privilege of capturing both photo and video of their wedding at The Hacienda, a stunning Spanish-style venue in Santa Ana.

From the moment we met them, it was evident that their love was deep and genuine. When we asked them what they loved most about each other, one thing they mentioned a lot was how thoughtful the other one was. She loves how when she wakes up in the morning, he has her vitamins laid out on her bed-side for her. He loves how she lights up a room and is always so caring.

Join us as we delve into the details of their heartfelt ceremony at St. Cecilia’s Catholic Church and explore the beauty of their rustic and elegant wedding celebration!

The vintage white car that awaited them after the ceremony instantly caught everyone’s attention. The classic design and graceful lines perfectly complemented the couple’s vision for an elegant wedding. It was more than just a mode of transportation; it became an iconic accessory that enhanced the overall atmosphere of the day. It complemented the venue plus Liz and Favian’s sophisticated style, and made for some amazing wedding photos!

Fairy lights adorned every corner of the venue, casting a magical glow that added to the ambiance. The twinkling lights created a whimsical and romantic atmosphere at The Hacienda. The combination of traditional Spanish elements and modern touches were timeless and exuberant.

As Southern California wedding photographers, we absolutely adore photographing at venues like this! We’re always a fan of A LOT of fairy lights - they’re such a vibe when mixed with vines and architectural details.
