Shannon & Josh’s Gorgeous December Wedding at Tom Ham’s Lightouse
Shannon and Josh chose a daytime wedding in December. A bit risky? Don’t forget, we’re in San Diego so they chose correctly! After a week full of rain and cold weather, the skies broke for what turned out to be a huge contingent of Out of Town guests. It was gorgeous, and everyone was treated to a beautiful outdoor, San Diego “winter” wedding. They held their ceremony in the Cul-de-Sac just outside of Tom Ham’s Lightouse. I’ve worked Tom Ham’s no...
Read MoreJenn & Zach – A Sexy Elegance at La Valencia in La Jolla
This is a second post entitled with the words “Elegant Bash” as it is also the same thing that comes to mind with Jennifer and Zachery’s wedding celebration held at La Valencia Hotel overlooking the Pacific in La Jolla, CA. The Valencia was decked out in an elegance that I’ve never seen before. Sexy, Black & White, Hot Purple Elegance! At the same time, the friendship and love (and beverage) were flowing so it turned into a Bash and a Half! The wedding ceremony...

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. It started light, fun and friendly, looked absolutely dazzling in the middle and ended with a bang on the dancefloor. Working with great vendors was also a nice touch which helps every wedding!

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...

Nick & Renee ended the summer with their Labor Day weekend wedding at the Bali Hai restaurant and what a big celebration it was! Everything was “Hawaiian” themed, from the ceremony down to the florals. It was my first time back to the Bali Hai since they renovated and the venue turned out great! The ceremony was held onsite, at the re-designed ceremony grounds and was officiated by the friendly and ultra-personable Craig Knudsen. Immediately following the recessional of the...
Read MoreChiara & Scott go Big at Their Grand Del Mar Wedding
When I first booked with Chiara & Scott, we were supposed to be at another wedding venue in North County San Diego. A few months prior, they switched things up to the magnificent Grand Del Mar resort for a multi-part wedding reception & celebration – and it was a perfect change! It was grand all around, and the celebration went over 7 hours long! After an offsite church wedding, guests arrived for cocktails and Hors d’oeuvres at the Reflection Lawn. Scott & Chiara...
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...

Virgil & Penelope have been awesome to work with to prepare for their BIG celebration at the Steel Canyon Golf Club in Jamul, California which turned out to be an awesome place to hold a wedding! Since “Virge & Penny” were going all out, we had multiple planning meetings and a site visit ahead of time to review the arrangement, flow, timeline and all of the event lighting that we were bringing into the Pavilion. It paid off! The wedding ceremony was held right across the...
