Josh had a grand idea planned on how he was going to propose to Brette while they were in Santa Barbara. He arranged for a romantic Hot Air Balloon ride and a giant 40 foot by 40 foot banner to be made that says “Brette will you marry me?” Unfortunately the weather that weekend had a mind of its own and was too stormy and he had to rework his original idea. The pilot called to cancel the hot air balloon flight at 10am on the morning he planned to propose. He didn’t want to wait, so he called the photographer and activated “plan b.” He proposed at the historic courthouse in Santa Barbara.
After he proposed he told Brette about his original plan and asked if she had any ideas for what to do with the 40’x40’ custom banner he had designed for the hot air balloon flight. We decided to incorporate it with their Engagement Session and get that romantic hot air balloon ride after all.

Tracy and Andrew had the sweetest, intimate wedding ceremony on the bluffs of Laguna Beach, overlooking the gorgeous coastline.
Tracy’s two daughters stood proudly by her side as bridesmaids, while Andrew’s two sons stood with him—making this beautiful day even more meaningful and special. 🥂
@ocbeachweddings brought the perfect touches for a coastal celebration, including parasols and fans for the guests, plus champagne for the bride and groom to cheers with. They made sure everything ran smoothly so Tracy and Andrew could simply soak in every moment of their beautiful day. ✨

Nicolette & Tyler had the most gorgeous wedding day on the bluffs of Dana Point, overlooking the harbor.
Their ceremony took place at the beautiful Heritage Park Alcove, followed by an intimate reception at the Chart House. As the evening unfolded, the warm, romantic golden sunset lit up the coast, creating the most magical backdrop for celebrating their love. ✨🌅
A truly beautiful Dana Point wedding filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable coastal views.
