Congratulations Chanly + Mike!

I met Chanly through one of her Sorority sisters, Angela.  Over a year and a half ago, I photographed Angela + Justin’s surprise Engagement/Wedding party at the Sofitel Hotel!  Best of friends, it’s Chanly’s turn to tie the knot at Casa Real at Ruby Hill Winery in Pleasanton, California.

The entire day was like a fairytale.  In a beautiful venue in the Bay Area, Pleasanton, California, just about 40 minutes southwest of San Francisco, California, Chanly and Mike said their I do’s.  It was about 85 degrees in late August, not too hot, but warm enough.  Chanly and her girls got ready in the afternoon as Diem and I arrived at 1pm to join the excitement.  Chanly was so beautiful (and well, she still is!), she was laughing with all her wonderful bridesmaids that were happily celebrating her big day together.

Her beautiful cinderella dress sparked and shined, paired with gorgeous royal blue satin Hangisi pumps by Manolo Blahnik.  Their reception had stunning pink and white tall centerpieces, and breathtaking bouquets with orchids, hydrangeas, roses, and more were made by Asiel Design.  Everything was a beautiful pink and white, with a gold trim.  Beautiful pink linen paired with gold chilvari chairs.  Candles were lit everywhere for a romantic feel.  All the glassware was gorgeous crystal with gold trimming.  And they danced the night away with Image Source Entertainment and a cambodian band.

I feel that happy girls are the most beautiful girls.  Mike definitely keeps Chanly very happy, as she was laughing all throughout the wedding, and even their engagement session.  Tears of joy and a lot of emotion from friends and family all around made this day the most magical as it could ever be.

Congratulations Chanly + Mike, wishing you a lifetime of joy and happiness!  Thank you so much for having us to capture your beautiful day.
