David + Clarisa {Clos LaChance Winery Wedding}

 

This day was so unbelievable.  David & Clarisa met years ago in college taking an Italian class.  They both love Italy & David is actually Italian, this was a plus for Clarisa!  They started dating and after a few trips to Italy the last trip they went on she came home an engaged woman!  It sounds so easy but we found out at the toasts that Clarisa’s father didn’t even talk to David until the 3rd or 4th time of hanging out with him.  David knew she was a keeper so he closed the deal quick.  It was so amazing to get to know these two.   My husband and I fell in love with them & I think the feelings are mutual, hahaha.  We had a great time capturing each moment as it unfolded on this special day.  The ceremony venue was at The church of the Nativity in Menlo Park CA and it was gorgeous.   They had a traditional catholic ceremony and shared communion together.

They had their reception at Clos LaChance Winery in San Martin CA.  This venue is Spectacular, with rolling hills and vineyards every where!  Everyone enjoyed the wine & the scenery.   Their wedding was 5.16.15 and they picked this venue for two reasons it reminded them on Italy & because of the amazing food, they are my kind of people!  We sure hope more brides and grooms book us for this venue.  It was an amazing place to shoot!

We loved every detail their wedding had & we most importantly loved David & Clarisa and their entire families.

Congrats on your wedding it was such a honor to capture your day!!

Love you so much

Aram + Melissa
