Prior to their wedding, we had spent a lot of time with Alisha and Alan - both during their engagement session in San Francisco and during our first consultation with them at a dive bar in Woodside. So, given their vivacious personalities, we knew this was going to be a fantastic wedding. Yet, even with our high expectations, we were blown away. During his toast, Alisha's dad said there are only two types of people in the world: Italians and people who wished they were Italian. I can't say that that is true, but I can say that these Italians sure know how to have a good time. Then again, I am a sucker for those moments when ALL of the wedding guests squeeze onto the dance floor, clutching one another and swaying as they serenade the couple with "That's Amore." Yep, that happened.

Alisha and Alan's wedding was at Santa Margarita Ranch just north of San Luis Obispo in central California. The 13,900 acre ranch has a fully functioning train originally from Disneyland, a herd of cattle that were happy to join us for our wedding party portraits, and the barn for the reception came with its very own barn owl.

If there is one thing that I love, besides Adm, it is an adventure, and Alisha and Alan's wedding sure was that.
