its like whatevers: Welcome to the family Julie!

Well my baby brother Steven and Julie just got married on March, Friday the 13th. The ceremony and reception was held at the Candlewood Golf Course in Whittier.

I was the best man, so all of the guys got dressed at our place while Elaina did Julie’s make-up at my mom’s house. Once we were all dressed we had a quick groomsmen photo shoot in uptown Whittier. My brother bought all of us black skinny ties and Ray Ban glasses just for the occasion. We got there early so this gave us a chance to make a pit stop at a local bar to calm our nerves. We then met up with a great photographer Trent, from www.proimageweddings.com. Steven had planned for us to do a Reservoir Dogs style shoot in a back alley which is why he bought us the ties and glasses. First he shot solo with Trent for traditional groom pictures.

After the solo pictures he shot all us guys. I think they came out pretty badass. Trent caught on to the concept quick and did exactly what Steven was looking for. He had never seen Reservoir Dogs before so we just gave him a photo we printed out from the internet for a concept. What do you think?!

After that Trent left us to meet the ladies at the venue. We went back to the bar for another cold one (hey it was warm that day!) and then made our way over to the golf course. We were able to sneak in a couple more at the venue before the ceremony started.

Julie looked BEAUTIFUL and the ceremony was great. Everything went as planned and came out great.
