Julie and David's Moonlight Beach, Encinitas Wedding..

this was such a simply sweet wedding.. a moonlight beach wedding in the morning with friends, family and such love.. 

i met at julie's house while she got ready and took photos of her as calm as can be.. i played in their backyard with their sweet daughters.. 

how stunning is she and that dress is so gorgeous! 

in honor of her late father, julie tied his dog tags in her bouquet..

we met her soon to be husband for a private first look and some photos before the ceremony.. i love this because it is a sweet moment just the two of you share.. nervous excitement.. giggles and sweet sweet smiles.. it is a special time.. and it is just between the two of you..  

the ceremony was perfect as the beautiful encinitas sun sparkled down on the married couple and the crashing of that turquoise water whispered in the back.. it was amazing..

 david and julie said "we do".. each of their daughters as well as julie and david had a jar of sand they poured together to symbolize their love and coming together as a family..
it was so so so beautiful..

there lunch reception was held at stone brewery in escondido where everyone sipped amazing beer, ate delicious food and mingled..

if that isn't a perfect wedding day.. i don't know what is..

thank you julie and david for letting me capture you and your lovely.. 

"we do's"
