San Diego Beach Wedding: Paula & Doug’s Brazilian Celebration

Share

Happy bride and groom holding hands under pier

Paula and Doug were married last spring at the Scripps Seaside Forum on La Jolla Shores in San Diego, after ten years together. I really enjoyed working with this couple. Their wedding was such a fun, vibrant day, with nods to the Bride’s Brazilian heritage. The day began with a priest officiating a traditional ceremony, followed by Brazilian rum and pastries, and dancing throughout the evening!
