Opting for an elopement offers you and your partner the chance to craft a celebration of your love that authentically reflects your relationship. Essence and Laurence chose an intimate affair along the coast of San Diego. Their first look at the Fairmount in Del Mar was a moment of pure tenderness, exchanging heartfelt private letters. Their intimate ceremony at La Jolla Cove provided a picturesque backdrop, offering stunning ocean views accompanied by the soothing sounds of breaking waves and swaying palm trees. And if the idea of renting a convertible and driving off into the sunset post-vows appeals to you, why wait? Seize the moment! This adorable duo is truly a match made in heaven, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to capture a glimpse of their new chapter.
