Jane and Ambrose chose the beautiful city of Sacramento as the backdrop for their first step towards happily-ever-after. The capital city of California, Sacramento, is located in the confluence of the Sacramento River and the American River in Northern California's Sacramento Valley. The glorious city of Sacramento is the sixth-largest city in California and is prized for its current and contemporary culture. Just 93 miles northeast of San Francisco is where California's charming capital city, Sacramento, is established, and the city is playfully referred to as the most ‘hipster city’ in California. It is also honored as ‘America's Most Diverse City.’ Aptly depicting the California climate, the city is several shades of pleasant to sunny during the entire year, which makes it a fabulous place for both the residents and guests. The city has some iconic museums, and Old Sacramento is full of celebrated buildings, artistic hubs, shopping spots, and more, a place that is ideal for some touristy sightseeing and recreation. The perfect season to visit this enchanting city is usually between spring and fall, as it is then pleasant weather-wise and hosts some of its most well-known events. The city is full of possibilities when it comes to attractions, starting from California State Capitol Museum to Old Sacramento Waterfront District, California State Railroad Museum to Sutter's Fort State Historic Park to mention just a few. Places like Fairytale Town and Midtown add to the lush Sacramento experience and make it an ideal place for a love story to come alive. The city also gets some incredible mirrored skylines and vibrant sunsets, making it a perfect setting for captivating a beautiful love story. Your Sacramento wedding photographers will be inspired to seize the energetic city in their perfect frames, as they did for our delightful couple’s special day.

Jane and Ambrose selected the stunning Granite Bay Golf Club as their wedding venue, and the location sure served them well! Tucked away between Roseville and Folsom, Granite Bay Golf Club is a secluded gem that is a calculated blend of country club savoir-faire and culinary excellence. Hugged from all sides by the breathtakingly beautiful 18-hole golf course, Granite Bay offers the latest facilities and personalized consideration that you would anticipate from a private country club. Set amidst the Sierra Foothills, this elegant country club provides an exceptional location for special celebrations like weddings. Perfect for couples planning an elegant and refined affair, this wedding venue comes with a walled garden and waterfront setting, making it a picturesque backdrop for wedding photographs. You can host your wedding in their secluded garden which offers the perfect ambiance for your ceremonial vows, and the outdoor covered patio adjacent to the garden offers a comfortable and airy environment for your cocktail hour to happen. Then your guests are welcomed into the ballroom which can easily accommodate up to 250 of them and features high sky-lit ceilings, a gorgeous built-in dance floor, and wraparound French glass doors that face the pristine golf course. Granite Bay Golf Club wedding venue is the perfect canvas to bring your dream wedding to life, and Jane and Ambrose sure chose right with this one!

On the day of their wedding, the couple dressed up to the nines to look their best for the occasion. Jane looked gorgeous in her trumpet-cut wedding dress with gorgeous lace overlays, a stunning V-neck, and flowing train which followed her steps gracefully! Her waist-length veil added to the traditional yet functional approach to the ensemble, and it all came together just beautifully! Jane’s hair was done after a gorgeous updo and looked classically beautiful and was perfect for the veil to be perched on. She went with a classic makeup look which was quite simple, featuring smokey eyes and nude lips. She accentuated the gorgeous neckline with a sparkling necklace and the overall impact was just fabulous. Our bride wore a pair of white peep-toes and carried a remarkable bouquet of white flowers and green foliage. Her bridesmaids were dressed in gorgeous powder pink dresses and carried matching bouquets. Ambrose looked dashing in a three-piece gray suit which was perfectly matched by a crisp white button-down shirt, gray necktie, and a pair of black formal shoes. Soon the couple met outside in the gorgeous outdoor event space for their wedding ceremony. The simple arbor and the ceremony site decorated in a minimal way with white drapery and flowers set the stage for the vows and the gorgeous stone brick wall covered with greenery provided the perfect backdrop for the occasion. White chairs added perfect uniformity for the guests to come and take a seat. They exchanged their vows and the adorable duo was soon declared married!

After the ceremony, the wedding photographers of Sacramento captured the couple with their family and friends in some adorable group photography. The couple then left with the wedding photographer to explore the wedding venue premises and take some stunning snaps along the way. The dramatic leafless trees, the romantic winding wooden bridge, the honey-dipped golden hour sunlight, and the gorgeous backdrop enabled the couple to land some amazing couple photography. We especially love the pictures taken in the rustic bridges with the perfect lighting in the backdrop playing hide-and-seek! The wedding venue was abundant with cozy rustic backdrops and the wedding photographer of Sacramento took advantage of the opportunity that the setting provided. We love the sentimental pictures of the couple with their daughter, and the serene captures of the lake in the property are just a few of the many gems that were captured along the way! After the pictures, the couple came back to their guests for their wedding reception, and the indoor event space was decorated in a classy minimal way. It is refreshing to see how Jane and Ambrose ordered cupcakes instead of a bigger cake for them to cut, and they symbolically had their cake-cutting ritual by cutting the cupcake and sharing it. Between the dinner and merrymaking, the evening came to an end and the couple left amidst a sparkler send-off! Overall this was a very personal simple yet classy wedding which was refreshing and heartwarming!

Life is short and love is enough, and your wedding day is the day which you will sigh happily and think back on for years to come. But as magical as love is, dream weddings don't happen overnight, just like that. They require meticulous planning, endless phone calls, and loads of trials and errors. Mapping for your dream wedding takes patience, adaptability, and extensive problem-solving skills. Wedding planning is not all cake tasting and tone swatches and selecting flowers! Of course, it is a bag of joy, but it is a bag of work too! It is truly interesting how a couple in love plans for months, puts in the work, and counts down every day for months leading up to their wedding day, scheming and plotting to get everything in order and for the day to go just smoothly, that when the day ultimately comes, it is over before they can even apprehend it. The wedding day is one of the most monumental days of one’s life and every passing moment is extraordinary and beautiful, but it is also surreal and the good kind of busy, and in hindsight, the day feels like a giant blur of emotions and actions. Even though it is busy and bustling, it provides you with memories to last a lifetime. This is essentially the day you will look back on and celebrate every year, with fancy dinner dates, blushing blooms, and decadent chocolates. While memories are precious, some will stand out to you, while others might slip by and get lost in translation. So having a variety of wedding pictures is always a great idea as it backs up your memory and reminds you of the moments you almost missed! Wedding photographers are like magicians who come in and catch the memories just in time so that each moment, significant or trivial, is ready to be treasured for ages to come. 

Our professional and affordable Sacramento wedding photographers took on this responsibility rather well and were able to capture the marvelous moments of the couple's special day in the various excellent captures. From the beautiful couple photography to the emotional ceremony captures, the fun group photography to the gorgeous backdrop, the wedding photographers in Sacramento did a notable job of arresting the delicate wedding details in the most memorable captures. Be it the postcard-like captures by the tranquil lake, or the golden glow of the twilight moment, everything is captured by the professional wedding photographers in and around Sacramento with a proficient hand. Wedding photographs are more than just photos, they are time capsules carrying you back to that special day, which is why it makes sense to choose the best wedding photographers you can. We particularly love how our affordable wedding photographers in Sacramento captured the pristine vibe of the wedding venue and the classic easy vibe of the wedding day. Overall, the wedding colors and the greenery, and the magical woodsy backdrops, and the sun rays streaming down in golden showers, every part of the wedding details all come together in the wedding photography quite elegantly. The result is a Sacramento wedding album that is classic and exceptionally beautiful!
