Brian & Patti’s Intimate Martin Johnson House, La Jolla Wedding
If you’re looking for an example of an intimate wedding celebration with family and friends, this is one to reference. Brian and Patti held their ceremony & dinner reception at the quaint Martin Johnson House located in the Scripps Institute of Oceanagraphy campus that overlooks the Pacific. The location, atmosphere and view certainly was to die for! The ceremony was held on the lower patio which later turned into the dancefloor and also was home to the bar (always a good thing 😉 )...

Read MoreBonnie & Chris’s Blast Wedding at Paradise Point
Many weddings can be summarized with a few words and “an Awesome Time” does the trick for Bonnie & Chris’s wedding at Paradise Point in San Diego.

The intimate and joyful ceremony was held on the Island Point lawn and officiated by Deborah Young. Immediately following, guests were...
Read MoreSierra & David Celebrate at The Catamaran
Sierra & David had a Catholic ceremony earlier in the day, but brought their Wedding Reception to the Catamaran Resort in Pacific Beach for a top-notch celebration. Being the big “9-10-11” wedding day, the place was bustling with activity (there were 3 stuffed reception room just upstairs alone.) This was my second Catamaran wedding this summer alone. Don Cole photographed the evening and was a pleasure to work with with his very easy going attitude. This one was extra...
Read MoreAngie & Mike Celebrate Their Waterfront Tom Ham’s Lighthouse Wedding
Angie & Mike came in from Arizona to have their (somewhat) destination wedding. I say somewhat as they and many of their frends and family are from out of town, but they all spend a lot of time boating ouf of San Diego and Southern California. Therefore, Tom Ham’s Lighthouse was a perfect venue for them to both hold their wedding and post-nuptial reception! The wedding ceremony was officiated by the infamous Pastor Mike out on the side patio as is common at Tom Ham’s. Following, guests...

Read MoreMonet & Joe Ceremony & Celebration at Admiral Kidd Club
Joe & Monet had their combined Ceremony and Reception at Admiral Kidd Club in San Diego – one of the hostest wedding venues around due to the simplicity (though must be attached to the military) and the views of the San Diego Harbor and Downtown. Daytime weddings usually have a different feel overall, but this one didn’t fit the mold. Everything from the gorgeous waterfront ceremony, to the high energy wedding party introductions, to the filled dancefloor during the reception...

Kelly & Darren held their complete wedding on the beautiful grounds of the Rancho Santa Fe Inn. In one breath you think elegance, but after meeting and planning with them for months, the word “party” kept coming closer to mind. Everyone delivered!

Read MoreBarry & Tatiana Wedding at Mission Bay Hyatt
I was surprised one afternoon when I saw an old contact pop up in my phone when it rang. It had been at least 2 or 3 years since I had spoken with him and was more surprised to learn that my friend, Barry, was planning his wedding! Even his brother joked during the Best Man speech “it was about time!” I worked with Barry for years at Nautronix, as a Project / Systems engineer. We both worked on the same projects which included weeks at a time oversees in places like Korea and Singapore. I...
