Mini Cooper Cuteness {Micah & Shelah} 4-24-10 | Four Seasons Lodge, El Dorado Hills

Last Saturday we had the great pleasure of shooting a wedding film for Micah & Shelah in beautiful El Dorado Hills, California. Their love story began just one short year ago at a friends wedding.  Shelah was a bridesmaid and Micah was a friend of the groom filling in the role as DJ for the evening.  Apparently, as the story goes, they were both checking each other out during the reception, one thing led to another and pretty soon a first date was arranged.  After a whirlwind romance the couple tied the knot in style and shared a fabulous evening with their closest friends and family.

I especially loved this wedding because of the uber-cute details, Mini Coopers, lemonade stands, and the most adorable place cards at the reception, to name a few. Before the ceremony, the couple chose to have their photo session at this beautiful outdoor location, nestled in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada.  During the day I had the pleasure of working alongside of Melissa of People Shooter Photography and though I was not photographing this wedding, I did manage to grab a few stills in the midst of doing my filming as well.  Here are a few teaser photos from their wedding.  You might notice the bride’s beautiful wedding ring, this is a custom creation of Michael Green & Co., renowned celebrity jewelry designer.

After the ceremony, guests ventured down to the Four Seasons Lodge in El Dorado Hills where they were treated to Ginger~Mint or Strawberry~Mint Lemonade and delectable hors d’oevres while the bride & groom finished up family photos.  One of the details that really caught my attention were the cute little place cards on the head table, an idea crafted by the event designer, Jilcara Reynolds.  Micah & Shelah had adorable little black & white photos of them holding a chalk board with each persons name written out.  Imagining the amount time it must of took to make such personal place cards,  the guests were touched, I am sure.  It was such a pleasure to have worked with such an awesome couple and I thank them for allowing my team to be part of such an amazing day!
