Serra Plaza Wedding | Emilie + Joseph

Outdoor Wedding | Orange County Wedding Photographer

From high school crushes to madly-in-love newlyweds, Emilie and Joseph’s romance was perfectly represented by their sophisticated, joyful Serra Plaza wedding.

The wedding reception details (planned by Bring The Bubbly Events) spoke to Emily and Joseph’s refined tastes. The warm neutral tones and pinks that they chose for their color palette, seen in their bridesmaid gowns and florals, complemented perfectly the Spanish-style, old world elegance of Serra Plaza and the surrounding Los Rios Historic District of San Juan Capistrano, California, as well as the classic car that they rented for charming portraits and a stunning grand exit at the end of the night.

Rather than a first look between the bride and groom, Joseph shared a heartwarming first look with their daughter, dressed in her adorable flower girl dress. The couple’s deep family bond was clear and beautiful, setting the tone for a night filled with emotion, laughter, and love.

For more about this wonderful couple, check out their DTLA rooftop engagement session. Otherwise, I hope you enjoy these selections from their wedding gallery.
