Romantic Fall Wedding at The Casino San Clemente
Fall is one of the most romantic seasons to get married in Southern California, and The Casino in San Clemente offers the perfect setting for a magical wedding. This venue offers a unique blend of vintage glamour and modern sophistication. I had the joy of documenting Evin and Sarah’s wedding at The Casino back in the fall.
Evin and Sarah started their day off-site with a few first looks (bride and father, bride and groomsmen, and bride and groom) and a private vow reading. The vow reading gave them an opportunity to have an intimate moment together before the ceremony, and it allowed them to express their feelings without any distractions. The location they chose for getting ready was breathtaking with ocean views, and it added an extra layer of beauty to their already romantic day. Sarah and her bridesmaids even got ready with Taylor Swift (ok, maybe it was just a cardboard cutout)!
After the first looks and vow reading, the couple made their way to The Casino in San Clemente for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. The Casino is a historic building with a Spanish Colonial Revival style, and it's located just steps away from the Pacific Ocean. The venue has spacious courtyards that is perfect for outdoor ceremonies, and it can accommodate up to 300 guests!
The ceremony was held in the courtyard, and it was absolutely stunning. The couple wed in front of a beautiful fireplace adorned with greenery and red roses. The red roses added a pop of color to the ceremony, and they complemented the vintage glamour of the venue perfectly.
During the cocktail hour, guests were treated to a cigar bar and there was even a vintage phone for guests to leave voicemails. After the cocktail hour, guests made their way to the reception area, which was decorated with red roses and disco balls. The combination of vintage and modern elements made for a unique and unforgettable experience.
The Casino in San Clemente is a beautiful venue for a Southern California wedding. The historic building and beautiful courtyards make for a stunning backdrop, while the modern amenities ensure that the event is both comfortable and memorable. Sarah and Evin’s wedding is just one example of the magic that can be created at The Casino in San Clemente. Cheers to the happy couple! It was a joy to document their special day!
