Southern California Wedding by Aaron Delesie

March 8th. 2010 by Abby Larson | Filed Under | 64 comments

Today is all about Aaron on SMP. Aaron Delesie, one of our all time favorite photographers and the talent behind some of our all time favorite weddings. And although I am about to reveal my own dirty little secret (reality TV people…get your mind out of the gutter), it’s so worth it. Yep. We just got word that Aaron was named the official wedding photographer for…wait for it….THE BACHELOR WEDDING! When I found out, I screamed so loud I am fairly certain my neighbors cringed. I fully admit to being a total Bachelor junkie and honestly was more excited hearing this news than if he shot the Oscars. Anyway, Jason and Molly’s wedding airs tonight on ABC and I for one, will be glued to the TV. Go Aaron!!

To celebrate, here is another one of Aaron’s gorgeous weddings. Believe it or not, I have even more images. To see the rest, click here!

From Brooke Keegan…one of our favorite coordinators!

I was so fortunate to get to work with Ashley and Tommy. They are high school sweethearts that knew at the beginning of their relationship years ago, that they would get married someday. Ashley wanted to create an event that was beautiful, fun and filled with love. Her favorite flowers are Dahlia’s and she wanted to make sure that there were an abundance of them. Annette did a great job of creating a very romantic and elegant look, exactly what Ashley had envisioned. When Ashley told me that there were so many beautiful children in her family that she couldn’t leave out, she came up with a really cute and clever way to honor them. She had a Flower Girl, Ring Attendant, Jewel Attendant and two Bell Ringers that came down right before her and her father. It had to have been the cutest thing I have ever seen! When I saw Ashley for the first time in her Amy Michelson dress, it literally took my breath away. She looked absolutely stunning – and her Kate Spade shoes were so adorable too! In their Honeymoon Suite, there were two framed pictures of the couple – one of them at their high school prom and one of them on their wedding night. It was such a cute touch by the Estancia team!

  16. happy bride! says:

    This is such a beautiful wedding I feel compelled to share a special detail of my own special day...I was recently wed in a beautiful Romona Keveza couture gown and it made my day even more perfect! I feel inspired to share my success story because weddings are such an important day in a woman's life and finding the perfect dress can be so stressful. The way I came across my dress was on the Romona Keveza Collection facebook fan page. There is an album titled "real brides" where actual brides who have been wed in Romona Keveza gowns can send in their pics and have them posted. Looking through these pics I felt very inspired and the dresses were simply stunning so I knew immediately I HAD to have one for my wedding :) It was the easiest and most stress free decision surrounding my big day... and it fit/looked perfect even on my less than perfect figure!!! I strongly recommend Romona Keveza for any bride to be... xoxo

  18. Rose says:

    I absolutely love it! It's so soft, pretty & romantic. Just gorgeous!! :)

  19. Kathleen says:

    Beautiful! I actually selected the same dresses for my bridesmaids, but in blue - they are by Melissa Sweet (MS307).

  20. Ann says:

    For planning purposes, what is an estimated budget for that volume/type of flowers? I like the look very much, but am concerned about costs for that amount. Thanks!

  21. Lindsay says:

    Lovely and very feminine. I love the use of color to exude simple elegance.

    I absolutely love how the flowers were done down the aisle, so pretty!

    Do you think I could borrow all those flower girls for my wedding?! They are totally angelic and they look adorable in those dresses!

  27. HOLY MOLY! There is too much pretty-ness going on, I can barely contain myself! Gorgeous venue, adorable flower girls, bejeweled kate spade flats (love it!) and much, MUCH more. Bravo Brooke, Aaron, and the whole crew that worked on this wedding, another one in the wedding hall of fame as far as I'm concerned!

  28. Erika & Ryan says:

    This is probably my favorite wedding i have seen on here! Its so delicate and feminine. I love the little girls and their bubble dresses. I just love the ambiance. Its eclectic, and that's what wedding decor is all about now, ambiance not themes.

  29. Diana says:

    So pretty. The colors are soft, which I love. You don't have to have bold colors to make a statement. And can I just say how much I love the bride's dress?

  30. Aneta says:

    I am very interested to know where the bride's rigns came from...so gorgeous!

  31. Megan says:

  33. Hi all! We are working on getting info on the flower girl dresses. I know they were sooooo adorable. I will have Brooke Keegan or the bride post the info as soon as possible. Keep checking back. Thanks for all of the compliments. Aaron and I had so much fun shooting this wedding. I say it all the time but it is true.. We have the best job in the world!

  34. Absolutely loved working with everyone on this wedding! I had the pleasure of going to high school with the bride and groom & it was so fun getting to do their wedding cake for their special day!

  35. Brie says:

    I believe the flower girls dresses are from Melissa Sweeet as well Flower Girls STYLE 132.

  36. Jennifer says:

    The flower girl dresses are similar to the Melissa Sweet ones, but these are chiffon rather than taffeta. Can't wait to hear where they're from! Sooo sweet!!!

  37. Court says:

    I also am very interested to know where the wedding band for the groom came from! Has anyone seen this before or knows where it is from?

  38. youngmi says:

    i don't normally pay attention to wedding flowers but these are so beautiful they really caught my eye! i especially love the bridesmaids' bouquets. and the photos of the barefooted little girls... pure joy!

  39. Hello everyone! I am working on getting all of you the details on Tommy's ring and the flower girl dresses...Stay tuned! Thanks!

  40. polichik says:

    Thanks, Brooke! I've been trying to find my fiance a ring just like that :) Congrats on your gorgeous wedding!

  41. ok....I think I've just found my favourite wedding of all time. Seriously word fail me. It is every superlative under the sun and then some!! Congrats to all the vendors for a simply stunning job!!!

  42. Kristin says:

    What a beautiful wedding! As many others I LOVE the bridesmaid dresses and flower girls dresses...thanks to those of you who provided the designer and style #...I will be looking them up for my wedding. I should have figured Melissa Sweet was behind those designs...I'm in love!

  43. Just spoke to the bride and she ordered the flower dresses at Nordstrom. She said they were only available for a short time and she had some difficulty getting all the sizes. She is going to look to confirm the maker of the dresses but it sounds like someone else already recognized them and they are made by Melissa Sweet!

  44. anna says:

    I would love to know where the engagement ring is from! It's beautiful!

  45. Aryn says:

    Those little girls are killing me with their cuteness! Their dresses are just perfect. Such a beautiful wedding!

  46. Ashley says:

    Thank you for all of your wonderful comments! The flower girls dresses are from Nordstrom and the brand is Biscotti...they might be tough to locate though but good luck!

  47. Erin says:

    I love that engagement ring, as well! Where is it from?

  48. Lindsey says:

    I love the tall centerpieces with the candles! It's exactly what I'm looking for for my weddng! Where did you find them?

  49. Maria says:

    Yeah I love the engagement ring! Where is it from>>?

  50. Laura says:

    What a luxurious wedding. I love the high glamor vibe with just a touch of rustic!

  51. Michelle says:

    One of the most incredibly elegant, personal, lovely weddings I have EVER seen! The palette is exceptional, as the colors of faces and contrasts with light and dark are so harmonious. The photographer captured the day so intuitively. Thanks for this post!

  52. Sara says:

    Does anyone know what the Groom's wedding band is made of or where it is from??!

  53. Court Van Beek says:

    I also am very curious to find out where the Groom's wedding band is from!

  54. Kristin says:

    This wedding is sooo gorgeous! Does anyone know where the absolutely perfect tea light candle holders come from?

  55. prairiebride says:

    I am with all the other brides who want to know where the flower girl dresses are from?! They are so cute, and I have 8 little girls that need that dress!

  56. Gorgeous wedding! You can go wrong having your wedding at Estancia La Jolla. The staff and service are top notch and they really do take care of everything down to the tiniest details.

  57. Alli says:

    I'm beginning to think there's a conspiracy to keep the details regarding the wedding rings a secret...which I can understand, they probably don't want to see matching bands everywhere! But perhaps if we asked really nicely, they'd tell us? I'm all the way in Toronto...we probably won't run into each other! :)

  58. Stephanie says:

    The floral design is amazing!!!

  59. ashley says:

    hey everybody wondering about the wedding rings. i could be wrong but they remind me a lot of Tacori. even if thats not where theres are from you can probably find a lot on tacori.com with the same style

  60. Lauren says:

    Beautiful wedding! I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the name of the style of the Kate Spade shoes is? I loveee them and have searched the internet but cannot seem to find them! Thanks!

  61. Katie says:

    Do you know if the bride would be willing to sell her gown? It's my dream dress, but alas, I can barely afford a David's Bridal gown. Sorry if I've offended anyone.

  62. Jamie says:

    I LOVE the Kate Spade shoes. I would really like to hear more details about them. BEAUTIFUL.
