Whitney + Frankie Married | Mission Viejo Country Club Wedding

After ten years of amazing love, Whitney and Frankie finally tied the knot during their Mission Viejo Country Club! I had the pleasure of having a great friend and photographer join me for their special day, huge thanks to Stephanie Williams for being such a trooper all day and running up and down those stairs 15 different times hehe. The day started off calm and full of love and joy. I walked into the Mission Viejo Country Club Wedding bridal suite and Whitney let out a squel because I think as soon as she saw me not only was she excited but it hit her, today was the day she was finally going to be Mrs. Villani! I worked with Whitney 9 years ago at Forever 21 and I remember her talking about Frankie and saying he was the one. I was so honored when she asked me to photograph her special day, and I kept having to tell myself not to cry (I do that alot because I have invested so much in my brides I feel like it is one of my friends walking down that aisle). I was so welcomed by all her bridesmaids right away and felt like I had known them my whole life! While Whitney got ready, Frankie and the guys had a few drinks and started on their portraits! As I was walking outside to make sure Frankie was tucked back away so I could photograph Whitney and her girls, I ran into Whitney’s Dad, Mike, and immediately I set him up for a father/daughter first look and boy was it so sweet and emotional! You can tell those two have a special relationship! Pretty soon it was time for the ceremony to start and I will always remember everyones reaction when Frankie walked down the aisle, hoots and hollers and tons of clapping! I have never seen a groom be greeted like that and I think all of them should. Then it was Whitney’s turn and everyone went crazy! It was such a fun group to be around. I was able to steal away Whitney and Frankie for about 30 minutes to do their portraits in front of the Mission Viejo Country Club and also along the golf course. The light at this time was to DIE FOR!!! The party started shortly after that and I may or may not have done the Cupid Shuffle and slow danced with one of the groomsmen hahaha oh and it may or may not have been caught on camera. Congrats to Whitney and Frankie on their Mission Viejo Country Club wedding and thank you so much for allowing me the honor to photograph your big day! I could not have asked for a better couple!
