Point Loma Naval Sub Base Wedding | Jess + Kyle

Getting to know Jess and Kyle’s story through working with them and shooting their wedding has been incredible. These two met years ago, but the timing just didn’t line up for them to date just yet. But staying in touch over the years brought them to this day, their wedding day. Crazy how what’s meant to be will be, huh?

Surrounded by so many of their loved ones, Jess and Kyle got married at the insanely beautiful Point Loma Naval Sub Base in San Diego, California. The views from their wedding venue are some of my very favorites in all of San Diego. Everything about this intimate wedding day, from the toasts, the prayers, the ocean views during the ceremony, the vows, the hymns, and even the dancing during the reception all made this day so emotional and full of joy. 

Sometimes I get to watch a wedding day unfold (or even the planning of one) and I am in awe at how perfectly things come together. I get to witness Divine intervention over and over again, and honestly, sometimes wedding days help strengthen my faith like never before. A great example of that was when these two families from two different parts of the country planned an entire wedding that was to be celebrated amidst a lingering pandemic. A community that welcomed the bride’s family and friends by opening up their homes as places to stay for the wedding week. Even simple things like the prettiest little rainbow that popped up at the reception (seemingly out of nowhere) just before the sun retired for the day, or big things like Jess and Kyle being able to pull off planning a wedding in a few short months amidst the craziest surge of weddings I have ever witnessed since starting my career in 2015. 

The pair ended the night with a Thunderbird getaway car and the coolest little escape into newly wedded bliss. They headed off across the country to settle down in Kentucky, where they will start a new chapter in their lives together. 

So so so incredibly honored to have been a part, documented, and witnessed such a beautiful wedding day. Congratulations, Jess and Kyle!
