Wattles Mansion and Gardens is a wedding venue in Los Angeles that you would never know existed just from driving by! Tucked away in Hollywood near Runyon Canyon, Wattles Mansion and Gardens is a beautiful estate at the top of a hill, overlooking the Los Angeles skyline. Toby and Arus had the most beautiful wedding ceremony in the backyard of the mansion, surrounded by all of their family and friends!

After the ceremony, everyone made their way to Palladio Banquet Hall in Glendale for the most lavish, extravagant, beautiful wedding reception ever! Food, drinks, and dancing all night - these two and their friends and family are so much fun. I’ll always be grateful for couples that trust me to capture their important memories and truly become life-long friends!

Check out this review from Arus and Toby of their experience with me:

Love love love Tida and her assistant was a pleasure as well. Three things you should know about this wonderful photographer. 1. She has a way of capturing your true self. I highly recommend getting the engagement / wedding package if you are like me and hate taking pictures. This also helped us grow and bond with Tida and honestly she's really easy to grow and bond with. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, we forgot it was there. 2. She has a unique style. We were looking to hire someone who wasn't going to have us stand there and look into the camera and take the "typical" wedding photo. Her pictures captured us in a way that feels natural. She also has amazing filters and knows what is going to look the best with he lighting and space. 3. You get your photos so quick. Honestly, she had given us over 100 photos within a week as a sneak peek and the rest came to us within a month. We were so shocked to see so many photos in such a short amount of time. Overall, I feel like our special day was captured at its best and to top it off, I feel like I made a new friend. I will happily ask her to capture more of our special moments in life again, hopefully sometime soon. Thanks Tida!
