A Traditional Wedding at Paradise Point Resort in San Diego, Lindsay + Saman

Two women in white dresses smile together at a traditional wedding at Paradise Point Resort, San Diego.Lindsay & Saman met and began dating 8 years ago during their second year of law school. They have since passed the bar together and are both practicing attorneys. Now they are on to their next adventure, marriage!

Wedding Venue:
They picked Paradise Point Resort because they both love the scenery! It’s a beautiful venue and it was really important to incorporate Jewish traditions including the Ketubah signing, breaking the glass, and the Hora!

Star Vendors:
I would say the star spot is a tie on this wedding! Events by KK (Kristin Krahl) was absolutely fabulous and handled the huge guest list with grace and ease. I was absolutely touched that the bride’s own father, Ron Slocum, did all the flowers for this huge and gorgeous wedding! His company is Bloomers Florist and the flowers were so classy and romantic and this proud father of the bride brought them all out with him in refrigerated trucks, from Las Vegas! I was impressed and really touched. His love for his daughter was evident and really wonderful to witness! Now, if it wasn’t already lucky enough to have a florist in the family, the groom’s family did their gorgeous rings!! With the adorable name Unicorn Jewelry & Watch Boutique, I was blown away by the absolutely magnificent rings- take a look in the photos- they are stunning.
