Tonight’s wedding was over at the Coronado Community Center. A few great things about this location are the fact that you are right on the water, there is a nice outside patio for cocktail hour, the reception room is modern yet warm, and the entire location is fairly new. It seemed that is was a very reserved group during the entrance (very little clapping or noise) and dinner hour so I thought it would turn out to be a mellow evening. Once dancing kicked into full gear they were out there having a great time! It is always a nice surprise. A few unique personal touches: They had someone hand paint all of the table numbers with orchids and flowers which looked amazing, there was a frozen dessert bar with all sorts of unknown cold treats, and three close friends got together and played their first dance live. The cake spotlighting and uplighting I provided looked amazing tonight! The cake provided some of the best photos I have been able to capture. I can’t wait to see the professional photos their photographer Jared Bauman took. He had a slideshow going with some beautiful shots. Melanie Montoya from Something Blue Weddings helped coordinate the evening without any glitches.

Estancia La Jolla Hotel and Spa La Jolla Ballroom is one of the best locations to have a wedding. A very fun and unique moment was the Lion Dance to kick off the evening (see photo below). The reception was on a Sunday night 7pm until 12 midnight so I wasn’t sure how guests would react to dancing since it was pretty late. They were an amazing group and you would have never known it wasn’t a crazy Saturday evening. They danced all night until the very end. The uplights matched perfectly with the room decor in an amber color and added just a bit of warmth to the walls and photos. Botanica always provides a clean and contemporary look to the centerpieces and florals. It was great to once again work with Theorie Photography and EverAfter Events Coordinators.

Extras Provided: 8 Uplights

The El Cortez is a unique round shaped room with a wood carved ceiling. The cake spotlighting truly helps the cake stand out in a great way. Uplights look beautiful on the outdoor tent during cocktail hour. Fun groom’s cake that looked exactly like a box of cigars. This wedding was a referral from their photographers at Theorie. Another great dancing group!
