DELANIE + JOSH • SONORA WEDDING COLLECTION

Delanie and Josh Met over 11 years ago when they we both 14 years old. They have been dating and made it through the thick and thin of adjacent and young adult life ever since. In a romantic gesture taking place at MaKena Beach in Maui, Josh brought Delanie cliffside to search for turtles and starfish. Surround by the sounds of the crashing waves, the fresh morning breeze and a golden sun, it was here as Josh and Delanie looking off at the ocean that Josh got down on one knee and proposed to Delanie.

Delanie, a real-life Disney World princess, had her eye set on the Union Hill Inn in Sonora, California for its majestic and grand beauty. Union Hill is set up in a way that is a maze of secret gardens mixed in with private ponds, grand foliage, and surrounded by a forest that reminded us of being back in Scotland. It was the perfect place for a true fairytale wedding.
