Jennifer Renee Weddings & Events: Janis & Jake - Newport Dunes, Newport Beach CA

Janis and Jake met over 20 years ago on their childhood streets running and playing as buddies until Jake's family decided to move away to a whole different country!!...well it at least seemed that way to a child version of Janis. A few Years went by and they weren’t children anymore they were the awkward teenagers with braces and a squeaky voice yet that didn’t stop them from falling for each other. Jake would visit his childhood friends often and would always make time for his long time crush Janis. As the years progressed Janis and Jake found themselves immersed in a love they thought was only found in fairytales...how do you find your true love at 8 years old!Pre Wedding Prep

Their wedding day was set in a sunny California October sunlight overlooking the bay of Newport Beach. When I arrived to Janis's hotel suite she was plaid pant clad with a mimosa in hand...as any bride should be, surrounded by makeup, hairstylists, family and photographers the room was a-buzz but Janis was a calm cool cookie. She sipped her mimosa on the balcony of her room and laughed along with her Maid of Honor to hokey jokes they had known forever! It was actually a moment of calmness in a room of chaos!

I was honored to be a part of your day Jake & Janis, You two smiled all day long and were filled with excitement all the way till midnight!! You know how to throw a party!
