Andrea + Dustin Pala Mesa Resort Wedding | Wedding Photography

Andrea and Dustin's Wedding was a straight up celebration. Weddings of course are about uniting two families as one, but rarely have I seen two families act so generous towards each other. And side was visiting California all the way from the east coast. I would say they went out of their way to make me feel welcomed in to photograph this important day, but I doubt they were going out of their way. It is just their embracing and kind nature.

Their wedding was held at Pala Mesa Resort in Fallbrook. The grounds of this resort make booking your wedding there a no brainer. The grounds feel large, but everything is within walking distance. The ceremony site is like no other in the San Diego area (and I believe built by a photographer...seriously, it is one of my favorite places to photograph.) During the ceremony, the flower girls and ring bearer walked the isle with Andrea and Dustin's dog to the song "Over the Rainbow." It was really unexpected and one of the cutest things I have seen during a ceremony. There was another surprise during the ceremony when Andrea's brother ( a musician from Philly) jumped on stage with a bandmate and played a song for his sister and new brother in law.

Below is a preview of images from their wedding.
