Alicia and Ben's wedding

I know I've said this a thousand times before, but we seriously have the best friends EVER! One of my closest friends got married this weekend to an awesome guy named Ben. Ben and Alicia started dating when Alicia was living with us in Redwood Shores (7 years ago-ish). They are beyond perfect for each other and I was so honored to be part of their special day!

All ready to go to the location!

The wedding was up at Byington Winery in Los Gatos - a beyond gorgeous setting. Alicia did a great job of time management for the day so we were never rushed and got to just sit back, relax and enjoy the day. They had a very sweet ceremony, which was officiated by Alicia's brother, and a fun filled reception with lots of dancing and an entertaining slide show. Everything went perfectly and the day seemed to fly by way too quickly. The location closed down at 10 and we were not ready to end the night so we decided to head to downtown Los Gatos for some after party partying. The bride and groom joined us, as well as around 40 people from the wedding, and we continued the celebration until almost 2am! For sure one of our top 5 favorite weddings of all time! Congrats over and over again to Ben and Alicia Phipps!
