Ivan and Anna were married last night in a magical winter wonderland themed wedding at Valle Vista right before Christmas. It’s the most wonderful time of the year to be married according to their adorable invitation suite! It was also the shortest day of the year yesterday. And while winter weddings can be sometimes difficult because of the lack of lighting, it usually means beautiful sunsets at the perfect time for all of the wedding day portraits. We had such a magical golden hour in the snow yesterday while we were taking our bride and groom and bridal party portraits! Anna and Ivan’s entire wedding day was so much fun! I love how much these two and their bridal party laughed together and enjoyed such a joy-filled day.

The ceremony was held by candle light and twinkling lights that surrounded the venue. It was so romantic and meaningful with friends and family surrounding the beautiful bride and groom. And once we got to the reception, the party really started, and Anna and Ivan just had the time of their lives. I know they are going to have such a FUN and joyful marriage.

Ivan and Anna, you two are incredible and your wedding day was so magical. Enjoy these sneak peaks while I finish editing your full wedding gallery from your beautiful winter wonderland Christmas wedding day!
