There’s something so dreamy about a December wedding, especially when it’s set against the stunning backdrop of The Lodge at Torrey Pines. This beautiful day began with a blanket of coastal fog, creating the most romantic and ethereal ambiance. As the day went on, the fog lifted just in time for golden hour, blessing us with the most beautiful, glowy light that made every photo feel like a fairytale.
The ceremony took place on the lush lawn overlooking the cliffs, with the ocean peeking through the morning haze. A floral-adorned arch framed the sweetest couple—seriously, they were an absolute joy to photograph! The bride’s flowing gown (with the dreamiest big veil!) and the groom’s classic black tux made for timeless portraits against the dramatic coastal views.
One of my favorite details was the custom newspapers they created for their guests. Not only were they trendy and unique, but they also added such a personal touch to the day. Guests loved flipping through them, learning fun facts about the couple and enjoying the thoughtfully curated content.
As the sun set, guests made their way into the reception space, which was a twinkly dream come true. The ceiling sparkled with countless fairy lights, creating the most magical atmosphere. Stunning florals lined the tables, with glowing candles adding to the romantic vibe. Every detail was perfectly thought out, from the elegant place settings to the cozy, welcoming ambiance.
The night was filled with laughter, joyful dancing, and so much love. The couple and their guests truly knew how to party! The evening wrapped up with a grand exit featuring light-up wands, making for the most fun and vibrant send-off. It was the perfect ending to a day filled with love, happiness, and unforgettable memories.
Capturing this wedding was such a joy! Days like this are why I adore being a wedding photographer—full of love, laughter, and those magical moments that couples will cherish forever.
