Darlington House Wedding Photography | Eddie + Taryn
Facebook, when you really think about it, is fascinating for so many reasons, and I marvel at it sometimes… It has also brought millions of people together, has reunited love and has sealed-the-deal on love for many.
In Taryn + Eddie’s story, Enterprise Car Rental brought them together {as friends}, and Facebook ‘sealed-the-deal’ for their love. I’ve got to mention that Taryn found ME on Facebook too!
In ’08, Taryn + Eddie met at Enterprise Rental Car but were just ‘friends’. When she left, she never expected to see Eddie again. But a year-and-a-half later, when Eddie poked her {a Facebook, “wink” of a sort, or maybe just a “hi”} to get her attention, it must have worked. Wonderfully! Taryn and Eddie shared a long-distance ‘friendship’ for 5 months until they mutually expressed that they both wanted something more. You can tell that they were placed on this earth to be each other’s soul mates. They compliment each other perfectly (as heard in their family’s speeches… or maybe a little ‘roast’ for Taryn).
Five years later, and last week, they ‘sealed-the-deal’ forever, at the gorgeous and historic Darlington House in La Jolla, California.
Their outdoor, Mexican/American-themed wedding was adored by 100+ guests, where they sipped margaritas, ate amazing grilled salmon and devoured Churro Wedding Cake, amongst the most delicious mini desserts from Elizabethan Desserts in Encinitas {can I get an ahh-mazing!?, and yes, we had some!).
Taryn + Eddie, Thank you for inviting us to create your family’s memoirs and document your wedding day as you became husband and wife! Xo
So, the guys really, really wanted these ‘mustache’ photos!
Katie got these great shots of Eddie! Nicely done girl!
Love these shots by Katie and love the socks!
Wedding dress button-looping, I will always love photographing it.
On her way down for the first look…
Gahhhh, I. Love. First looks.
Did I mention the Churro Cake from Elizabethan Desserts? Goodness.
And, the Vintage Mercedes that Taryn’s dad has had for 27 years. Yes please, thank you. It was the brides idea to use it!
They even make an alley way look good.
Did I mention the mini desserts from Elizabethan Desserts? Woah!
Taryn and her mother were adoring Eddie’s dance with his mom. There were some tears here for sure!
And, how can we forget the toasts?! I am sure Taryn won’t. However, what I gained from them is that Taryn is kind and compassionate! Right Eddie?
The Darlington House never fails to be as stunning, and rich in architecture as ever.
