Modern Romantic City Love
These love birds had a ball exploring beautiful Downtown San Diego for the perfect wedding photoshoot before their evening ceremony at The New Children’s Museum of San Diego.
We love Brittany’s wedding look!
The sleek lines of her stunning gown are modern yet reminiscent of vintage Hollywood glamour for a timeless classic feel.
The bridesmaids were all glowing in excitement, and the dreamy, airy dresses paired with the wild beauty of the bouquets are a beautiful way to bring in more of that ethereal feel to balance the modernity of the city architecture.
Adam looked so dashing in his dark navy suit and broody maroon pops of color.
Like Brittany, his ensemble was chic while still maintaining that timeless vintage polish.
The groomsmen looked so classically handsome in these sharp suits!
A pair of dark shades perfectly finished off the look.
With the First Look and group pictures all taken care of, it was time to get ready for the ceremony!
The ceremony was across the street from the Museum, in the public park with a peaceful secluded atmosphere and plenty of space for guests.
At the top of the aisle was a majestic wooden Huppah, draped in an incredible arrangement of florals plucked from a fairytale.
Brittany looked absolutely radiant as she came down the aisle.
This dazzling Huppah framed the happy couple perfectly for the most jaw-dropping photos.
After a small candle lighting ceremony, to symbolize the joining of their lives, they were pronounced husband and wife!
Any more excited, and you’d think these two just won the Superbowl!
Inside the venue, we put the finishing touches on the dining tables before guests arrived from the ceremony.
Guests arrived at the party welcomed by our appetizers, drinks, and this contemporary sign-in book!
To find their seats, guests looked on the wall for their escort cards.
These hand-made magnetized corks doubled as fridge magnet wedding favors, and cardholders on the dining tables so servers could find their names.
For the Grand Entrance, the newlyweds came up the rainbow bridge and straight onto the dance floor for their First Dance.
This moment allows a moment for the Bride and Groom to recenter as the day’s stresses begin to lift, and the real fun begins.
Their Sweetheart Table was an ethereal garden dream brought to life with all the dark wild foliage, warm golden lanterns, and twinkling lights in the sheer backdrop.
After the seated dinner, where we served guests their choice between our savory Short Ribs, Herb Crusted Chicken, or Specialty Meals all made on-site, the DJ opening the dance floor with the Anniversary Dance!
This birds-eye view of the room demonstrates The New Children’s Museum‘s versatility and amount of usable space for significant sized events such as this.
This stunning two-tiered cake from Flour Power Cakery was a statement piece with those extra-tall layers and clean frosting finish.
To flank the cake, a family member brought in a local specialty, Julian Apple Pie!
For the rest of the evening, guests danced the night away, thanks to Jimmy Grizzley.
They only paused long enough to hoist the newlyweds above their heads in the traditional Hora celebration dance!
We’re so glad we could be part of this special day, and we loved working with these two in collaboration with Back Patio Event Designs!
We wish them all the best in their bright future together, and we’re so excited to work with the rest of these talented vendors again soon.
