La JOLLA, CA

The day began with Nicole taking a morning swim with her bridesmaids and Connor catching waves with his groomsmen, setting a playful, carefree tone for the celebration.

Their ceremony and dinner took place on the lawn overlooking the ocean. Handwoven fans from the Philippines, brought by Nicole’s mother as a nod to her heritage, welcomed guests. The design carried a minimalist, coastal, organic feel with natural textures, sea glass name cards, and accents of driftwood and coral woven throughout.

During dinner, they slipped away to the pier to share private vows at sunset—the spot of their first date. Overhead pendant lighting set an intimate tone as guests dined and danced, making the day feel effortless, personal, and timeless.
