Hold on to your tissues, folks. This lovely, lovely wedding is full of joyous emotions, adorable moments, and everything that gives us goosebumps about weddings.
Stephen and Megan made an appearance on this blog and on Style Me Pretty for their engagement photo antics – the two make the most perfect couple, and are completely head-over-heels in love with each other. We couldn’t wait to photograph their lovely wedding at the Brazilian Room in Berkeley, and we weren’t disappointed.
The Brazilian Room is nestled in Tilden Regional Park, so even with the city close, you feel a world away.
Megan chose an elegant look with a modern chignon and fresh makeup.
Bestie and Mom were on hand to help Megan into her gorgeous Amy Kuschel strapless lace gown.
A pair of silver Enzo Angolini heels add a bit of sparkle to her wedding day ensemble.
Bridesmaids take note: hugs are so needed on your wedding day! Your favorite girls make this big event feel like tons of fun.
Stephen looks dapper in his spotted socks and navy suit.
An emotional first look renders both these lovebirds speechless. These moments are what we love the most!
Stephen gives Megan a twirl – and rightly so! Her dress is fabulous from all angles!
A classic car and gorgeous white and green bouquet are the perfect props for an elegant wedding – wouldn’t you say?
Megan shows off her stunning earrings as Stephen gives her a squeeze.
A completely timeless wedding takes a lot to pull off, but I think they nailed it!
The grounds around the Brazilian Room are so lush and beautiful – the perfect spot for some romantic pre-ceremony photos!
Megan’s creamy white bouquet is the stuff of bridal dreams – so lovely!
Megan heads down the aisle with both parents! The aisle is flanked with white flowers in vases, and black chivari chairs.

The Brazilian Room is decked out with black chivari chairs, light grey-violet linens, and small groupings of white flowers for centerpieces.
Megan and Stephen have their own “sweetheart table” complete with initials!
These little succulents did double duty as place cards and take-home gifts! And how cute is that sign?
“find your succulent, your seat, and join your new best friends for the evening” – so adorable!
Elegant signage made sure Stephen and Megan had their seats reserved, while black table numbers and candles gave just the right ambiance to the Brazilian Room.
The newlyweds snuggle during speeches.
An all-white cake with the most adorable topper! Tiny banners spell out Megan and Stephen and little peg-people look suspiciously like our bride and groom.
We had so much fun with Megan and Stephen; its so easy to photograph two people so in love! It brings a smile to our faces every time we look at their joyous wedding.
