Cozy Wedding at The Haight
For Chase and Ray, love was just a swipe away….and across the street. This kind, funny and creative couple were neighbors, but ultimately met on Tinder. They fell in love right away, but Chase said that Ray couldn’t propose for at least a year into dating. 1 year and 1 month later, they were engaged. Chase and Ray are so natural together, and their wedding at the Haight had all the cozy vibes, with tons of stunning greenery to compliment the venue’s industrial wood look, and an epic donut table in lieu of the traditional cake. Chase avoided the traditional vibe for their outfit too, rocking purple hair, an amazing jumpsuit, a shoe change for the reception, and even an incredible tulle cape for the ceremony to surprise Ray. Their vows had the phrase “I would fight a bear for you” in them, and there was reference to a zombie apocalypse, so yeah, you could say that these two know how to personalize a wedding. They also know how to throw a party! The night ended with a killer dance floor so good that there’s even photo of me in this blog post dancing my face off with their guests.
Here’s a few of my favorite images from a day full of love, happy tears, laughter and awesome dance moves:
Thank you so much, Chase + Ray, for choosing me to capture this fantastic day. I had such a blast celebrating your incredible partnership and I am so very happy for you both!
