Francine+John | Brookside Country Club Wedding Photography

This blog post is long overdue. John and Francine were married on August 15, 2009 at the Brookside Country Club in Stockton, California. What a gorgeous wedding in such a wonderful setting. The wedding revolved around the bride's Hawaiian heritage. Beautiful bright tropical foliage adorned the ceremony and reception site. Unique one of a kind Lei's were given to family members instead of boutonnières. The wedding entertainment was provided by family and friends. Francine a hula dancer performed for her husband a beautiful dance. It was a site to see.


Francine's dress was hand made by her grandmother.

    These are beautiful. I love the bride's dress and the fact it was made by her grandmother. Such a lovely personal touch. My fav is the b&w of the bride dancing solo although I loved them all! Great work!!

    Awww I love this set !! The Hawaiian wedding dance is always my favorite! And having the bride perform with ( what I'm assuming is) her halao on her wedding day is so special.

    Great use of the lake when the groom is holding the bride and they're kissing.
