The Inn at Laguna Beach Wedding | Jordan + Steven

The Inn at Laguna Beach is such a magical place to get married. It’s one of the most beautiful hotels right on the beach, and the turquoise sparkling water of Laguna Beach is absolutely beautiful. This is a luxury Boutique Hotel in the heart of Laguna Beach. For Destination weddings, it has the finest art galleries, the best shopping, the best restaurants, and some amazing nightlife just steps from the hotel. Did I mention the use of the Pacific Ocean from the hotel rooms are completely a dream? Well yes, they are. I love that Jordan and Stephen chose the Inn at Laguna Beach for their intimate wedding overlooking the ocean. I think they found the perfect spot for them. I absolutely loved there mellow and laid-back plans that allowed everyone to be completely in the moment and have the time of their lives. I was honored to tell their story! My photography is very fine art, documentary, photojournalistic, and the fact that they enjoyed every piece of this day, made it easy for me to capture some amazing images!

Jordan and Steven met on a blind date and have been together ever since! They were not interested in taking a ton of formal looking photos, but preferred photos where they looked relaxed and like themselves, I love that! Here are a few of my favorites, it was nearly impossible to pick but I hope you love these as much as I do! XO, Heather
