There are some wedding days that feel like they were made for storytelling. Jacob and Alivia’s wedding celebration at Lakeview Estates was exactly that! Firstly, from the very beginning, their day was filled with personality, emotion, and the kind of joy that reminds me why I love what I do. Secondly, Lakeview Estates provided the perfect setting with its serene lake, beautiful estate house, and soft golden light that made every moment feel like perfection.

First, Jacob and his groomsmen kicked off the morning with a gameday-style entrance. This undoubtedly set the tone for the entire day. They showed up early, walking in with jackets slung over their shoulders, sunglasses on, and all the confidence in the world. It was such a fun, creative way to start the day, and it captured their energy perfectly. These candid, personality-filled moments are what make our wedding day so memorable! I always encourage fun personal touches, adding them adds a real and playful edge to your story.

While the guys had their fun, Alivia and her girls shared a calm morning in the bridal suite. The space glows with natural light from the tall windows, and the chandelier sparkles above. During, the beauty surrounded them as they laughed together in adorable matching green-and-white striped pajamas. Alivia was radiant as she stepped into her classic off-the-shoulder gown. Not to mention, her bridesmaids’ reactions said it all when they turned to see her for the first time. Those gasps and happy tears are moments you can feel long after the day ends.


The ceremony space at Lakeview Estates was a true vision. White chairs lined the lush green lawn, facing the lake where the palm tree swayed in the gentle breeze. Guests were greeted by a welcoming display of white florals, parasols, and a soft palette that complemented the natural beauty of the venue. While Jacob and Alivia exchanged vows under the open sky, the light reflected off the water creating a glow that felt absolutely magical. Their joy was contagious, and when they shared their first kiss as husband and wife, the entire crowd erupted in applause.

After the ceremony, we wandered the property to soak in that dreamy golden hour light. The way the sun reflected off the lake created the most romantic backdrop for portraits. During, Jacob and Alivia laughed, ran hand in hand along the water’s edge, and paused for quiet moments surrounded by white roses. Every frame told the story of two people completely in love and fully present in the moment.

As the evening transitioned into their first dance and the dance floor came alive, it was clear this was a day built on love and connection. Overall, Lakeview Estates is the kind of venue that offers everything a couple could dream of, from the peaceful lakeside views to the inviting reception space that feels both elegant and warm. For couples looking for a timeless and romantic setting in Northern California, Lakeview Estates is truly something special.
