When photographers Erin and Geoffrey first introduced us to Cat and Mike during their engagement shoot, we had no doubt their wedding would be one worthy of some Hello May lovin’. A couple originally from New York, Cat and Mike decided to tie the knot at a private property in L.A. instead. “Mike and I decided to get married in Ruston, L.A. for a few reasons. One of the major ones is that my grandparents are there, and it meant the world to me that they could be there. Also, James Lake itself is a family owned property that is dear to my heart.
