Ted & Olivia- The Flower Farm Inn Wedding By Two Twenty Photos

First wedding of the year and it was with Olivia & Ted at the Flower Farm Inn in Loomis, CA.

It was all smiles with these two all evening (and a lot of kissing!!!) I kept seeing Ted looking at Olivia and he’d have the biggest grin on his face. Each time we asked them to come in for a kiss, they’d hold that kiss for an extended time. No coaching or directions needed to make it super natural. They were clearly so in love, my goodness!!!!

So the story is, Ted & Olivia got married a year ago at the Flower Farm Inn. Due to COVID restrictions at the time, they held a super intimate outdoor ceremony underneath the gazebo with 10 people total. Now, a year later, they are finally able to have their wedding reception at the same venue so they can celebrate with all of their family and friends!!!!

We started the evening with getting ready shots.

This was my first time photographing a wedding at The Flower Farm Inn & I’m in love! The venue itself was close the highway, and yet tucked away enough among the trees that it’s secluded and quiet.

The bride & bridesmaids got ready in the main house. The sitting room was filled with natural light and farm house furnitures.

Right next to the main house, probably 150 yards away, is a smaller guest house where the groom got ready. According to one of the guys, this was their 6th beer in already. lol..

While I was taking pictures of the groomsmen, Ted’s Mom was taking photos of them too but from a far distance. So I had her come closer so we can sneak some photos some shots of the groom and his parents. Ted was really close to this grandma while growing up. She passed away a few years ago so on his wedding day, he carried her ring and a teddy bear pin close to his heart to remember her.

While Olivia & Ted have been married for a year now and he has already seen her in her wedding dress, I asked if it’s okay to do a first look still? After all, while you’re young and pretty, let’s document as many moments as possible. That way in the future, you will always have these images to remind you how happy you were together and why it’s worth fighting for.

Just for fun, I asked Olivia to grab his ass to see how he will respond. hahaha

This was the smiliest group of bridesmaids I have ever seen!!!

THE RECEPTION:

Before the toast started, we snuck them out for some sunset photos among the orange orchard.

Toast from the bride’s father with the in laws looking on proudly

Now is the toast from the Best Man. Everyone was laughing so hard cuz he said Ted never got in trouble so there wasn’t any embarrassing stories to tell. Except when Ted opened his iTunes playlist and ONLY listened to Green Day.

“I Hope you had the time of your life.” Cheers!!!!

Didn’t I tell you? SMILES EVERYWHERE!!!!!

My favorite part is always seeing how much fun the parents & the kids are having!!!!

This was meant to a sneak peek but it end up being an overview of the whole day.

Ted & Olivia, thank you for having me. I hope you loved the “sneak peeks”. I wish you nothing but happiness and laughter as you start your life together. May these images forever make you smile and serve as a reminder of how loved you guys are!!!
