Grass Room DTLA Wedding | Colorful, Tropical, and Fun

We’re more behind-the-camera than behind-the-keyboard people, so we let AI help us put some words together for this one.

There’s something about Grass Room in DTLA that just feels alive. Between the soaring skylights, layers of plants, eclectic textures, and that unforgettable whale mural, the venue is one of Los Angeles’ most vibrant places to host a wedding.

For Sarah + Dan, it was the perfect space to bring their vision of a colorful, tropical-lite, and fun wedding to life.

Grass Room isn’t your typical wedding venue, it’s a converted warehouse with walls of greenery, art deco tiling, and unexpected details tucked into every corner. Couples love it because it feels like a mix of urban DTLA grit and greenhouse magic.

The venue itself is already bursting with personality, and it’s a natural fit for couples who want their wedding to feel vibrant, relaxed, and unique to them.

Sarah + Dan described their wedding vibe as tropical-lite—a mix of lush florals by Little Branch, colorful details, and a playful energy that carried through every moment.

With planning by So Smitten Events, music from Second Song, makeup by Kelly Zhang, and catering by Fundamental, the day came together seamlessly.

Their first dance to “That’s How Strong My Love Is” by Otis Redding set the perfect tone—timeless, soulful, and full of heart.

Los Angeles Forest Engagement Session | Alex + Nimesh

We’re more behind-the-camera than behind-the-keyboard people, so we let AI help us put some words together for this one.

For Alex + Nimesh’s engagement session, we traded downtown streets and busy venues for the quiet beauty of the Los Angeles mountains. Surrounded by tall trees, soft light, and fresh mountain air, their session felt like a little escape from the city, just the two of them, soaking it all in.

We love doing engagement sessions because they’re more than just pretty photos. They’re a chance for couples to get comfortable with us, our cameras, and the way we work. By the time the wedding day comes around, we’ve already built that trust together, so you can focus on being present while we quietly blend into the background and capture it all.

Valentine DTLA Wedding | Fun, Lighthearted, Romantic Celebration

Located in the heart of the Arts District, Valentine DTLA is one of Los Angeles’ most unique wedding venues. With its natural greenery, dramatic architecture, and mix of historic and modern design, Valentine creates a space that feels both expansive and intimate at the same time.

For Jamie + Nick, Valentine was the perfect backdrop for their fun, lighthearted, and romantic wedding day.

Why Couples Love Valentine DTLA

Valentine is filled with character at every turn. The venue blends industrial textures, lush greenery, and stunning architectural details.

Jamie wore a gown from BB Bridal, while Nick kept it sharp and classic in The Black Tux. Together, they set the tone for a celebration that felt modern, stylish, and full of heart.

  • Florals: Little Branch

  • Coordinator: Emily Lynn

  • Music: Second Song

  • Catering: Woah Nelly

  • First Dance Song: “Look at Where We Are” by Hot Chip

The reception was as vibrant as it was meaningful, with a guest list of about 150 friends and family ready to hit the dance floor. Between the laughter, the food, and the disco ball glow, the atmosphere was pure joy.

The couple first met in 2017 on the dating app The League, and have been inseparable ever since. They share a love for cooking, exploring new cuisines, and recently adopted a pup named Bean—who quickly became the center of their world.

Their photos reflect everything they value most: candid moments, timeless portraits, and a celebration of love surrounded by the people they hold closest.

Millwick Wedding, Arts District

Vivi + Ninh

The amazing coordinator and Millwick site managers rescued a weak hummingbird from inside the venue and nursed it back to life until it was strong enough to fly off on its own. So sweet. There’s a photo of the little guy below. <3

Millwick Wedding | Elegant Tiki Celebration in Los Angeles Arts District

We’re more behind-the-camera than behind-the-keyboard people, so we let AI help us put some words together for this one:

No venue in Los Angeles strike the balance between urban edge and lush escape quite like Millwick in the Arts District. With its tropical greenery, mid-century touches, and modern open space, it’s no wonder it has become one of our favorite wedding venues in Los Angeles.

For Vivi + Ninh, Millwick set the stage for an elegant tiki-inspired celebration—a night that blended playful design, great food, and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

Millwick is known for its tropical, garden-meets-urban aesthetic. The towering plants, clean architectural lines, and natural light make it an ideal setting for couples.

One of our fav moments, the Marvimon site managers and the wedding coordinator rescued a weak hummingbird that had flown into the venue. They nurtured it carefully until it regained its strength and eventually flew back into the Los Angeles sky. That little story feels symbolic of what Millwick does best—creating a space where beauty, care, and magic happen all at once.

Vivi + Ninh envisioned their wedding as a stylish, modern spin on a tiki party—elevated design, warm hospitality, and a guest list of about 120–130 loved ones. The result was festive yet refined: a space filled with laughter, energy, and an atmosphere that encouraged everyone to truly enjoy the night.

Attire: Vivi wore a gown by Khaite, paired with modern details that matched Millwick’s contemporary backdrop.

Coordinator: Ingrid Yeh

Catering: Hungry Bear

We’re more behind-the-camera than behind-the-keyboard people, so we let AI help us put some words together for this one:

Carondelet House Wedding | Playful Elegance for a Queer Non-Binary Couple in Los Angeles

There’s something magical about photographing queer weddings in Los Angeles, especially when the venue is as timeless as Carondelet House. Known for its vintage charm, brick walls, and intimate courtyards, Carondelet has become a favorite for couples who want their wedding to feel both elegant and relaxed.

For Kara and Alec, a non-binary couple, Carondelet House was the perfect backdrop for their “playful elegance” wedding style.

As LGBTQ wedding photographers in Los Angeles, we know how important representation is. Carondelet House is already stunning on its own—but when it’s filled with queer joy, vibrant design, and the kind of love that lights up a room? It becomes unforgettable.

A Love Story Rooted in Design, Music, and Art

Kara and Alec first met at a holiday party in 2014, reconnecting a few weeks later on New Year’s Eve. Fast forward to today, they live in Highland Park with their Cavalier pup, Elsie (an Aquarius, naturally). Kara works in interior design, Alec is a software engineer, and together they share a love for concerts, art, and creating spaces filled with beauty and joy.

They also had an engagement session with their dog, Elsie, you can see here, which perfectly captured their playful energy and love.

The Carondelet House: A Venue Made for Queer Love

Carondelet House is one of the most romantic wedding venues in Los Angeles—an early 20th century Italian villa turned urban hideaway. With its mix of exposed brick, hardwood floors, dramatic staircases, and hidden courtyards, it feels historic. Our faovrite part is that the guests who prefer an intimate conversation have their own beautiful corners to hangout in while others enjoy the dancefloor.

Together, these spaces created the perfect canvas for capturing the couple’s love story with vibrancy, joy, and authenticity.

The wedding aesthetic balanced sophistication with playfulness—colorful florals by Blush Flora, chic attire by Saint from Lovely Bride and Sharpe Suiting, and meaningful details like Kataoka jewelry.

With vendors like The Love Riot (coordination), Ashes & Shine, Tres LA Catering, and even tarot readings by Mischel’s Truth Tarot & Coaching, the day felt curated and deeply personal. They even had a reception glitter makeup station. This wasn’t a cookie-cutter wedding—it was a bold, vibrant expression of Kara and Alec’s personalities.

Why Carondelet House is Perfect for Queer Weddings

Carondelet’s vintage charm paired with modern inclusivity makes it a standout venue for LGBTQ couples. It offers:

  • Architectural backdrops that elevate portraits into works of art.

  • Intimate courtyards and atriums perfect for candid, playful moments.

From NYC to LA: A Love Story

This couple lives in New York City, where we also photographed their NYC engagement session here. Their wedding brought them to the bride’s hometown in Los Angeles, where they gathered family and friends for a celebration that reflected their personalities perfectly: romantic, moody, warm, and fun.

Getting Ready at The Line Hotel

The day began at The Line Hotel in Koreatown, where the couple got ready and shared the first part of their portraits inside the hotel’s stunning rooftop greenhouse. With its glass walls, lush greenery, and golden LA light, the space created a cinematic start to their day.

Romantic & Moody Wedding at Republique

The ceremony and reception took place at Republique, one of Los Angeles’ most iconic restaurant wedding venues. Known for its stone arches and intricate tile work (almost chapel-like in appearance), Republique is both grand and intimate—a dream backdrop for couples who love moody, romantic architecture.

This couple leaned into the venue’s unique aesthetic, pairing it with lush florals by Little Branch, warm candlelight, and a vibe that was less about tradition and more about connection. They skipped some of the standard formalities, and instead focused on great food, great music, and great company.
