Being professional photographers here in Southern California, we get the opportunity to shoot photography all over this great area with so many vastly different areas and venues. But one of the best parts of being a photographer, especially shooting weddings, is the couples we meet. Regardless of whether it’s to photograph their engagement session, their wedding, various stages of their family life or any combination of those, it has been a real pleasure to meet and work with each one of them. But perhaps our favorite part is hearing their stories. Every story is so unique, and we get really excited to be witness to some of the more special moments in their lives as each one of them are truly great to work with. This is definitely the case for Eric and Johanna. They are a truly wonderful couple that we had the pleasure of photographing their Serendipity Gardens Wedding on October 11, 2019.
Located in Oak Glen, Serendipity Gardens will bring out the rustic, elegant environment for your special day. Every spot in this venue will leave you with breathtaking photos. With backdrops of the mountains, the sunset and areas such as their pond or barn, every spot is a perfect spot. It’s a great space to escape during the hustle and bustle of your day. It’s also a great place for quiet time for couples to just take everything in and enjoy the moment of their day. It’s no wonder why Johanna and Eric chose this location. Simply beautiful!
Johanna looked absolutely radiant as her hair and makeup were right on point from the team at Flawless Face, and she looked even more fabulous with her beautiful wedding gown. Waiting for her at the altar, Eric was very handsome wearing a black suit with a burgundy bow tie from the Men’s Wearhouse. Eric’s groomsmen were looking dapper themselves in navy-blue suits and burgundy ties to match the burgundy dresses worn by the bridesmaids.The ceremony and reception were beautifully decorated by The Olivine Collective, as well as Flowers by Mae Mae’s gorgeous floral arrangements. Serendipity Gardens presented some amazing food and the cake by Michelle’s Bakery was off the charts delicious! The party didn’t stop at the ceremony as Musical Phunktions DJ Company kept the party hopping all evening long. What a party… What a celebration!
All of the details of this gorgeous garden area wedding venue were videotaped by Happily Ever After Wedding Productions and the special moments were captured by the team at Three16 Photography.
We would really like to thank Johanna and Eric for allowing Three16 Photography to be part of your special day. We wish you many years of love and happiness.
