Matt and Donnie are two of the most fun people you could ever possibly meet. They were full of laughter and smiles all day and Matt’s jokes had me in stiches the whole day.

I have photographed weddings at Valle Vista Golf Course many times and they are all great but these two really pulled out all the stops to make their day unique to them. Donnie pulled up on his motorcycle and after the ceremony Matt joined him for a ride around the course and through the famous “bubble alley.” I mean—they offer a horse drawn carriage but the motorcycle is just one more level of cool.

They also opted to throw footballs at the reception instead of the traditional garter / bouquet which I think we are finally starting to see this tradition be replaced with more fun and less gendered/marriage pressure options. Thank goodness.

Valle Vista really did a great job at this wedding. One of the things I love about this wedding venue is that everything is done in house. You don’t have to worry about food being late or your wedding cake never showing up because everything is already there. They come with built in coordinators that work well with photographers and the other weddings that are going on at the venue.
