Franciscan Gardens Wedding | Jasen + Melissa

Jasen and Melissa chose the charming Franciscan Gardens in downtown San Juan Capistrano as the charming back drop for their elegant destination wedding.  Southern California welcomed them with warm blue skies and warm temperatures.

  The lovely fall colors of Melissa's wedding bouquet were absolutely stunning.
 

The "first look".
I adore when a bride chooses to see the groom prior to ceremony time, allowing the photographer to make the best use of time and location resulting in the best possible photos. 

I was thrilled to learn that Melissa arranged for a time of romantic photos at the nearby historic Mission San Juan Capistrano.
 

Melissa, you are gorgeous!

An outdoor evening of dinner, toasting, and dancing under the stars at the Franciscan Gardens was a perfect celebration of nuptials with 24 carrots catering fabulously providing the meal.

Congratulation Jasen and Melissa, I was honored to document your wedding day!  Be blessed!
