The Grand in Long Beach Wedding | Samantha + Sinapati

I met Samantha through a mutual friend, and was delighted to photograph her wedding day! I knew they were having cultural dances, and wanted the big day centered around their family and friends. But they outdid themselves! Polynesian dancers, an amazing DJ, and all of their beautiful wedding party made for an amazing evening.

Samantha and Sinapati met in 2009 and kept running into each other over the years that they decided fate was bringing them back together. When it came to their wedding day, they knew they wanted it to be classic, simple, but incorporated the Samoan culture. I couldn’t have dreamt a better day for the two of them!

When asked about any special people who have inspired them, they told us about Samantha’s grandparents who’s house they now live in. She went on about how their relationship inspired them and helped set a great example of marriage! How sweet?!
