1. HUNTER + MITCH Endless love (and heart eyes) for this wedding. (It did make one of our covers, after all!) We’ll never tire of the florals, the tables, the dress, and the million other little details. No, seriously. There’s like a million details. And they’re all perfect. // Photography Whitney Brailsford
2. KALLI + TRENT These two met in the City of Brotherly Love, and their Woodland Hills reception paid the sweetest tributes to that (i.e. philly cheesesteak sandwiches and iconic LOVE signs). Also, her dress is what dreams are made of. // Photography Alyssia B. Photography (a #UVBvendor!)
3. ANNA + ADAM A classic wedding with a modern twist — these nuptials were pure elegance with an assortment of bright and unexpected hues. // Photography Jessica Janae Photography

8. NIKKI + TRENT This Thanksgiving Point wedding was full of details and dancing! We love the pathway that told their story. We love the map of all the places this couple has been. And we love the bride’s pup all glammed up for the big day. // Photography Kailee Marae
