Melissa + Jesse | Rancho Santa Fe Wedding
When I moved to San Diego, the Rancho Valencia Resort & Spa was one of the wedding venues that I was most excited to photograph. The resort just completed a 20 million dollar renovation project last year. I’ve heard a lot of stories of celebrities and NFL quarterbacks spending time here. When you pull up to the main entrance you immediately know why. Melissa and wedding planner Erin Donoghue of Your Event by Erin put together a really pretty, small outdoor wedding. I enjoy working with Erin so much that I included a collage of detail photos for her in this post. My favorite moment of this day was when Melissa nervously sang Jesse a song at the end of the night.
