I’m just in love with her dress (her figure! vavavoom!) and, Oh! Check out the Tsakopoulos Library Galleria , the stunning, multi-floor venue where their reception was held! GAH. So great.

After their ceremony, Tessa’s mom surprised her by having the UC Davis marching band out on the steps of the church as they exited!

Wedding shot by Colleen Sherman with Stacey Marsh assisting, for Emily Main Photography. Seriously, these girls are all sorts of rad!
