Jacqueline and Michael's intimate wedding took place under the mystical oaks at the Audubon Park Tree of Life. Their ceremony combined multiple traditions to express the joining of both of their families. We loved getting to know everyone through the fun and *musical* speeches of their loved ones at their reception at the always romantic, Race and Religious. After watching their film, scroll down to read this fun couple's hilarious story of falling in love. Great time working with a wonderful team and make sure to check out their beautiful photos by the talented Lauren Carroll Photography!

“One afternoon while studying for the Step 1 board exam, Mike and Jacqueline’s nerd groups accidentally crossed paths, and Jacqueline was piqued by Mike’s intelligent response for why patients with Mucopolysaccharidoses have coarse faces, “Because the lysosomes take a dump on their face.”
A few months later, Jacqueline and Mike were randomly paired up on their first clinical rotation - which happened to be the Psychiatric ward at Cedar Sinai. Between avoiding unstable psych residents (the doctors, not the patients), wandering the wards, surviving earthquakes, and ducking out early, their friendship began to grow.
Mike and Jacqueline began to spend more time together, and sometimes Mike crashed at her apartment which was close to the hospital, and willingly watched her favorite show, The Hills.”
