It was a tropical summer day here in our little beach town of San Clemente. The marine layer rolled in but was beautiful and dreamy for Jim + Ashley’s wedding day. They had their First Look down at the beach and then had their wedding party join them.
Their ceremony and reception was at La Ventura San Clemente. La Ventura Event Center is a hidden gem! It honors the “Spanish village by the sea” vibe of San Clemente with its Spanish-Colonial Revival architecture and landscaping. They have a darling bridal suite and grooms room and take such good care of their couples.
Jim + Ashley, I am so happy for you two and so happy I was able to photograph your engagement and wedding! You two have such a sweet, kind, adorable love.

Big shout out to this amazing team of vendors!
The First Look is so special. 💕 It’s a time set aside, before the ceremony, for just the bride and groom to see each other and have a moment before they go into the rest of their day together.
