SAN DIEGO WEDDING OVERLOOKING THE OCEAN
Cheryl reached out to me ONE week before her wedding day. They had planned everything else out within a couple months and the photographer was last on their list. It was one of those rare Saturday’s I had off and booyyyy was I happy. It felt like that date had been saved for Cheryl and Casey. While on that phone call, she told me how she had met Casey a few years back in a bar. He was nothing she had ever been attracted to, but the moment he turned around to introduce himself, she knew “damn I need to know this guy.” Things moved pretty quickly — they knew they were in love, ready to spend the rest of forever together. Soon after, they had their sweet little babe! All that was left was to seal their relationship with a kiss, sweet vows and some rings.
They chose to do so overlooking the ocean in San Diego, CA, at a quaint little estate that reminded me of Greece. (Ok, ok, minus the blue dome tops, but still, SUPER adorable). With 30 of their closest friends and family, they let out some laughs and tears exchanging personalized vows.
I loved every bit of their day. Unplanned. Go with the flow kind of day. Everyone ate at the same table, shaped into a “U” at the estate’s courtyard. At sunset, Cheryl and Casey were taking their portraits with me when they asked, “can we invite everyone out here to watch this with us?” UM HELL YEAH. So we did. We all watched the sunset together before they bit into their giant donut and danced the night away under the full moon. Pretty perfect day if you ask me.
