Congratulations to Nicole & Brent,

Whoa... This day came so fast, I still can barely believe that my good friend Brent Stowers is actually married. :-) I have the pleasure of knowing Brent for quite a few years and I've always been very impressed by how well carries himself on a day to day basis.

Brent is actually a young man who I've met when he was just 22 years old and he was already in charge of a very busy country club, ever since I've met this young man, I've heard nothing but great things about him, (customers and co-workers alike) there is no doubt in my mind that Brent is well liked by all of us who got to know him, always so very considerate and professional. My congratulations to my good friend Brent and his beautiful bride Nicole...

The wedding ceremony took place at the beautiful Saint Paul the Apostle Church in Chino Hills, Ca. The reception followed at the Via Verde Country Club in San Dimas... Here's just a few of my favorite images:
