Morgan Hill Estate Botanical Wedding | Brina and Andy
Brina and Andy got married at a beautiful Morgan hill Estate of their friends. It was gorgeous and had a very welcoming laid back feeling even though there were around 250 guests.
How Brina and Andy first met
The first time they meet was at a party at Andy’s house. Brina was about 22 or 23. They don’t have exact memories but know they met at that time.
Their first date?
Andy and Brina’s first date was at a Japanese Restaurant called CreAsian in Morgan Hill. They both immediately felt at ease around each other and really interested in learning more about each other.
When they knew they were made for each other
Leaving for Europe a little over a month after they started dating and Brina was gone for 5 weeks. They missed each other so much which was a sign. They also exchanged emails during that time that were so sweet. Andy admitted he was in love with Brina in one of the emails and that made Brina feel so good to hear.
Details about the proposal
On the evening of Brina’s 30th Birthday, they were getting ready to go out to dinner with family. She was sitting on their bed and Andy handed her a card that said he wanted to make this day a milestone in their lives. Then Brina looked up from the card and Andy was getting down on one knee and asked her to marry him.
The ring was really unique and perfect for Brina. It was a huge amber looking stone. Tears sprung up in Brina’s eyes and the first thing she said was is this a joke, which is a saying that Brina often says.
My favorite memory at the wedding:
They had a ton of children invited to their wedding. They had their own and friends and family members too. They included a children’s play area with kid-friendly food and projects to keep them happy and busy. The photo they took with a ton of children is one of my favorites.
Another thing that stood out was that the bouquet was all greenery which was so beautiful!

Exist in photographs for your children
I recently watched a training with a fantastic photographer named Sue Bryce on CreativeLive. She’s very knowledgeable and motivational, but most importantly, I enjoy listening to her as I laugh and am inspired all at once. Today, she said the most amazing thing to everyone (and I imaged directly to me), “You need you to exist […]
6 Tips to Excellent Family Photos
I know! It’s tough to think about taking or scheduling family photos with a photographer. You have to deal with husbands not being very excited (or even reluctant) think about what you are going to wear and what the rest of the family will wear or even try to lose those extra 10lbs (if you […]
