			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lisa and Scott really did a fabulous job pulling together so many details for their <a href="http://www.cityofboston.gov/" target="_blank">Boston</a> wedding. They wanted to celebrate and honor their family traditions- both <a href="http://www.aish.com/literacy/lifecycle/Guide_to_the_Jewish_Wedding.asp" target="_blank">Jewish</a> and <a href="http://www.chcp.org/wedding.html" target="_blank">Chinese</a>- as well as add their personality to the day.</p>
<p><img src="http://allegrophotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-2-590x393.jpg" alt="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-groomsmen argyle socks" title="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-2" width="590" height="393" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-672" /></p>
<p> They were both really excited about the argyle socks for the boys. Note the purple diamond in the mix, one of their colors.</p>
<p>Check out Lisa&#8217;s dress- sparkly gorgeousness. Lisa fell in love with the dress for its own merits, but also enjoyed the fact that it was designed by the <a href="http://www.bravotv.com/project-runway" target="_blank">Project Runway</a> winner <a href="http://kennethpool.com/" target="_blank">Kenneth Pool</a> because she loves the show.</p>
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3644489110/" title="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-12 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3539/3644489110_7936127305_o.jpg" width="410" height="590" alt="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma- wedding dresses by kenneth pool" /></a></div>
<p>Lisa and Scott  poured their heart and souls into the paper products. They did a great job creating a consistant feel using their colors of   aubergine, eggplant and fuchsia.  </p>
<p>The program&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3644489150/" title="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-15 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3379/3644489150_8ba60f5b86_o.jpg" width="590" height="410" alt="lisa and scott's wedding ceremony program- boston, massachusetts" /></a></p>
<p>The reception table seating cards&#8230;</p>
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3644489216/" title="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-17 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3620/3644489216_f1d12d162f_o.jpg" width="410" height="590" alt="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma- welcome reception cards at boston hyatt- stuck in wheat grass" /></a></div>
<p>The labels for the candy take-away boxes&#8230;</p>
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3644489554/" title="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-18 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3401/3644489554_398cf2831a_o.jpg" width="410" height="590" alt="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma- candy bar take away box with personalized sticker" /></a></div>
<p>The labels for the gift bags for guests staying at the hotel&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3643683229/" title="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-14 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3411/3643683229_3a05be5147_o.jpg" width="590" height="410" alt="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-personal stationary for bride and groom DIY" /></a></p>
<p>Her invitation suite was purchased through <a href="http://www.cartier.com/" target="_blank">Cartier</a>. Love the simple elegance of it.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3644489610/" title="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-13 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3379/3644489610_ae8ab25b1e_o.jpg" width="590" height="410" alt="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-cartier invitations" /></a></p>
<p>Lisa and Scott had seen our engagement sign-in album when we first met them at the bridal show. They later selected to have us create their guest book from their <a href="http://www.allegrophotography.com/clients/2009/lisa_scott_eng/index.htm" target="_blank">New York City engagement session</a>. The images were great; I am glad they chose to use them in this way.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3644489392/" title="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-16 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2472/3644489392_c9baf53416_o.jpg" width="590" height="410" alt="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-allegro photography's guest sign-in book" /></a></p>
<p>One of the most exciting details of the wedding was all of the music. Jazz musicians of <a href="http://www.czonemusic.com/bios-greg-capozzi.php" target="_blank">CZONE</a> performed during the cocktail hour and during the reception.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3643683509/" title="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-19 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3636/3643683509_19657fcdf5_o.jpg" width="590" height="410" alt="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma- CZONE jazz group performs at cocktail hour" /></a></p>
<p>And the lion dancers of <a href="http://www.gundkwok.org/" target="_blank">Gund Kwok</a> kicked off the reception with pomp and circumstance. </p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3644489498/" title="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma-20 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3311/3644489498_64c8b03193_o.jpg" width="590" height="410" alt="lisa_scott_wedding_details_boston_ma- lion dancers" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sara and Mike are just about the funniest couple alive. Seriously, they have the best sense of humors (or is it senses of humor?). We couldn&#8217;t wait for their wedding, because we knew we would be laughing and smiling all day long. </p>
<p>Here&#8217;s my favorite humorous moment from the <em><a href="http://www.ritualwell.org/lifecycles/intimacypartnering/Jewishweddingscommitmentceremonies/sitefolder.2005-06-07.5921979856/bedecken.xml" target="_blank">bedecken</a></em>. Sara&#8217;s checking out Mike to make sure he&#8217;s the right guy. Turns out he is.</p>
<p><img src="http://allegrophotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/sara_mike_california_wedding-1-590x393.jpg" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding-1" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-jewish bedeken ceremony at kennolyn in northern california" width="590" height="393" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-608" /></p>
<p>What I didn&#8217;t count on, was the tears they would bring to my eyes.</p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3615125206/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-9 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3310/3615125206_228c09e58a_o.jpg" width="410" height="590" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- bride and groom hold hands at kennolyn" /></a></p>
<p> During their <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketubah" target="_blank"><em>ketubah</em></a> signing ceremony, the Rabbi allowed for them to share some thoughts with each other. They were so tender and honest with each other.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3615125538/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding_10 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3590/3615125538_c6582a3f94_o.jpg" width="590" height="347" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- bride and groom kiss during ketubah ceremony in santa cruz ca" /></a> </p>
<p>And the way Mike looks at Sara simply melts my heart. </p>
<p>Here Mike is ensuring that Sara is indeed Sara. When I look at this image, I somehow make  the same expression that Sara does. I can&#8217;t help it. Quivery happiness all over.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3614307437/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-11 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3596/3614307437_e9677d6a42_o.jpg" width="590" height="410" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- bride and groom during bedeken in soquel" /></a></p>
<p>Alas, I have gotten ahead of myself. So allow me to take a step back.</p>
<p>I have known Mike for several years; we met while performing in a comedy improv group- <a href="http://blueblanketimprov.com/" target="_blank">Blue Blanket Improv</a>- in California. Mike has since moved on and even started his own- <a href="http://www.chickenscratchimprov.com" target="_blank">Chicken Scratch Improv</a>. And Dave knew Mike from their swing dancing days. We met Sara (and puppy Oscar) last fall and were instantly enamored. Mike and Sara are absolutely perfect together, and perfect parents for Oscar. When they chose us to photograph their wedding at <a href="http://kennolyn.com/events/index.shtml" target="_blank">Kennolyn</a> near <a href="http://www.ci.santa-cruz.ca.us/" target="_blank">Santa Cruz</a>, we started counting down the days.</p>
<p>We started off &#8211; me with Sara as she and her bridesmaids were getting ready and Dave with the handsome groom&#8230;</p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3615124554/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-2 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3415/3615124554_3a3b7858a9_o.jpg" width="410" height="590" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- groom portrait at kennolyn" /></a></p>
<p>and his <a href="http://www.hbo.com/entourage/" target="_blank">Entourage</a>,</p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3614306785/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-7 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3617/3614306785_211322493c_o.jpg" width="410" height="590" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- groomsmen portrait at kennolyn in santa cruz" /></a></p>
<p>which included his adorable nephew. Precious missing teeth!</p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3615124830/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-13 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3124/3615124830_62281c4cd7_o.jpg" width="410" height="590" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- ring bearer at kennolyn in soquel cali" /></a></p>
<p>The guys have it a lot easier. Here, the women getting ready&#8230;Sara almost in her dress.</p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3615124758/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-3 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3652/3615124758_ae121ecbd0_o.jpg" width="410" height="590" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- bride getting into her wedding dress in northern california" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3615125050/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-6 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3301/3615125050_eb201c6d08_o.jpg" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- bridesmaids get ready at kennolyn northern california" width="590" height="410" /></a></p>
<p>And a nod to Sara&#8217;s fabulous shoulders and back. She is a triathelete and spends tons of time in the pool. The pay-off is clear.</p>
<p align="center">
  <center><br />
  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3614307025/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-4 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3405/3614307025_d8f07689e8_o.jpg" width="410" height="590" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- back of bride and wedding gowns" /></a></center></p>
<p>Just before the boys joined the girls for the <em>ketubah</em> signing, Sara and her beautiful little flower girl compared dresses.</p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3615124986/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-5 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3406/3615124986_50ea5f9f35_o.jpg" width="410" height="590" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- bride and flower girl look at each others dresses at kennolyn" /></a></p>
<p>Mike arrives. And Sara welcomes him in.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3614307249/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-8 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3299/3614307249_f1d2487365_o.jpg" width="590" height="410" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- groom prepares to see bride for ketubah ceremony" /></a></p>
<p>The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbi" target="_blank">Rabbi</a> in the background. Flower girl, apparently, not so interested in that. </p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3615125266/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-12 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2419/3615125266_552e738dc4_o.jpg" width="410" height="590" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- flower girl during ketubah ceremony - summer" /></a></p>
<p>Then we head over for the ceremony under the <a href="http://www.huppah.com/whatis.html" target="_blank"><em>huppah</em></a>.</p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3614307491/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-14 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3368/3614307491_cc385a25ac_o.jpg" width="410" height="590" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- bride with bouquet before ceremony" /></a>  </p>
<p>And Sara walks down the aisle with her mom&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/3615125456/" title="sara_mike_california_wedding-15 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3301/3615125456_93312be2ec_o.jpg" width="590" height="410" alt="sara_mike_california_wedding- bride walks down aisle with her mother for Jewish ceremony" /></a></p>
<p>I can&#8217;t wait to share more and there will definitely be lots, lots more. Of course, more from the reception, but I  will also be sharing about the flowers. They were amazing! <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower_bouquet" target="_blank">Bouquets</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boutonniere" target="_blank">bouttonieres</a> galore by <a href="http://www.laughingalfloral.com/" target="_blank">Laughin&#8217; Gal Floral</a>. Definitely check back soon!</p>
