Franciscan Garden Wedding: Brianna + Mitch

Real Weddings

I am so excited to share more from Brianna and Mitch’s Franciscan Garden wedding. Their wedding took place last November and incorporated hints of Burgundy and gorgeous DIY details!

Getting Ready

The morning started off relaxing and fun at a nearby hotel where Nat Payne MUA pampered the ladies.

The gentlemen enjoyed some beers nearby before heading to The Mission San Juan Capistrano for the first look and wedding party photos. This wedding had four locations throughout the day including so logistics were crucial to the day!

First Look

First looks always tug at my heart strings and Dakota Sims photography captured theirs perfectly. (Professional Tip: in order to have photos taken at the mission you must have your photographer pay for a permit and schedule a time).

After Brianna and Mitch had time to themselves and took their portraits, the wedding party joined in on the fun! Afterwards, they were headed to the St. Anns Church in Laguna Beach to get married and then to their Franciscan Garden wedding reception!

Franciscan Garden Wedding Reception

When guests arrived at Franciscan Gardens they were greeted with special touches of Brianna and Mitch like framed engagement photos on each table, their favorite beer at the bar and a unique guest book.

Florals by Jackie complimented the already green garden with pops of burgundy florals. The tables alternated with candles and florals that created a beautiful ambiance.
