Cornerstone Wedding "Rain drops keep falling on my head" - Rebecca Champion & Dave Wittman

This was my last wedding of 2011 and oh, what a fun one!  It rained 'cats & dogs', but Rebecca and Dave were good spirited about it.  One of my favorite photographers, Edyta Szyszlo, captured the fun-loving couple in the rain.  The groom, also known as DJ Dave in LA, earned his claim to fame with the hilarious "Whole Foods Parking Lot" You Tube...check it out here: http://www.fogandsmog.com/

Dinner under the stars prepared by Park Avenue Catering





In the end, sitting under the canopy of vines, flowers, lights, poems and stars, the couple looked out at this vast crowd of beautiful people- smiling and laughing. They were "newlyweds" in that moment - just the two of them in the midst of all the people they love. It was perfect.
