The Lodge at Torrey Pines Wedding, Part Two
Eric and Whitney
When they dreamed of their wedding day, Eric and Whitney imagined exactly what it would sound like...
The joyful sounds of clinking glasses during the toasts, boisterous laughter from all their friends on the dance floor, and the buzz of their guests mingling together in one beautiful, whimsically romantic ballroom.
After saying "I do" in a lush ceremony on the lawn, they stepped into their dream-come-true wedding reception at The Lodge at Torrey Pines.... and alllll those heart-melting sounds filled the room.
Every heart that celebrated alongside these newlyweds was completely whisked away by the romance!
(By the way, if you haven’t already seen their magical couple portraits in Part One, go go go!)
Susanne Duffy of Crown Weddings designed Eric and Whitney’s dream wedding day, and treated them like she would family (that’s why we LOVE her!). Every single detail of their wedding day was perfection: the flowers were beautifully designed by Splendid Sentiments, a gorgeous (and delicious) cake was created by Michele Coulon of Dessertier, and Still Listening Productions kept the party alive until the turn of midnight!
We had guests stopping us all day to say how this was truly REAL love - and that’s what made the day so worth celebrating. Of course, Eric and Whitney are brilliant and lovable and so stinkin’ fun - but it’s the way that they love each other (quirks and all) that is so rare! Jeff and I left with full hearts!
Eric and Whitney: You. Two…. *insert heart eyes emojis HERE!!!* Oh my goodness, we had such a special time photographing your wedding. Your families are amazing, your guests couldn’t have had a better time, and you two totally leaned into every moment. We love you both bunches and can’t wait to see your love grow!
Hugs,
Erin
