The most gorgeous dinner table for an intimate 20 person wedding at Alila Marea Resort.
Sometimes you meet someone and their name doesn’t stick: “I thought his name was Mic for 6 months,” Gabby told me about her husband to be, Vic. These two met out and about in Dallas and connected months later, and now as San Diego residents, decided to marry at the San Diego Administration Building before having a larger, destination wedding later.
On the day of their San Diego courthouse wedding, Gabby’s long skirt with the perfect slit and cut outs in her top defined ‘courthouse chic.’ With a gorgeous bouquet from Third Bloom* in hand, her and Vic, with his gorgeous smile, wed, concluding their ceremony with a perfect dip. Congratulations, Gabby and Vic!
*Third Bloom is now Lollia Bloom, which is owned by my former bride, Lori! Small world!



























It's just coffee?! Anyone who has dated has likely said this once in their dating life, but when a simple coffee date turns into a DAY LONG date, it's a good sign. This is how Patricia and Marcos' love story began, eventually evolving into an exchange of new interests and hobbies: Patricia opened Marcos' eyes to the symphony and Marcos introduced her to soccer.
When Patricia and Marcos reached out to me to photograph their San Diego civil marriage ceremony, I was thrilled: they were able to get an appointment with the county clerk's office four years and one day upon meeting and would marry at the 'marriage hut' set up by the San Diego Administration Building due to the Covid, an opportunity for those very much in love to still move forward in their plans to wed despite the current pandemic. With the San Diego County Administration Building as our first backdrop, we had an amazing morning documenting wedding photos at Waterfront Park.
Patricia and Marcos, you came looking fly! Absolutely stunning, and you gave me your best energy, which I so appreciate. I can't wait to see what adventures you both get into together! xo, Evelyn
