An Intimate Ceremony in The Watch
The couple chose to keep it simple and meaningful—surrounded by just their closest friends and family. The space was styled with minimalist florals, warm natural light, and timeless fashion choices. It was a masterclass in understated elegance.
As a wedding photographer, I love how The Watch offers cozy intimacy without sacrificing sophistication. The textures, lighting, and views gave me endless creative possibilities.

Perhaps it goes without saying, but I guess it’s me.. so I’ll say it! Food is super important to me when sharing a celebration with friends. Even if it’s simple food, it must be good food. The Muir with it’s countless restaurant options can deliver literally anything you want for your wedding. C&M opted for a cocktail style with hor d'oeuvres and grazing options all with a Mediterranean flair. They had custom drinks that were so delicious.
