{Michael + Candice @Doubletree Redding Beach}

It rained all day and Candice had to decide at 5:00pm to have the wedding inside instead of out on the beach.  Literally at 4:58pm the rain stopped and it turned out to be the most beautiful evening for their wedding.  The sunlight was muted slightly behind the clouds and was absolutely my dream lighting:-)  Mike is from South Africa and they had family and friends come all the way from there and many other places to celebrate with them.  His grandparents couldn't make the trek so they live streamed their reception so they could enjoy in thousands of miles away!  The surprised their guests with a little taste of South Africa during their first dance.  They added some really unique personal touches that make it really special for their bridal party gifts as well.  I got to work with them the day after for a trash the dress session too so that will be coming soon!  Don't worry ladies it wasn't her real dress!  Candice and Mike I hope you are enjoying Tahiti it was such a pleasure to work with you and your families, congrats!!!
