Christien + Crystal's Pasea Hotel & Spa Huntington Beach Wedding

Christien + Crystal’s gorgeous summer wedding was one of our favorites of 2018 and we are so excited to finally be sharing it with you!

The whole day took place in and around the beautiful Pasea Hotel, in our hometown of Huntington Beach, CA. Just about every room we went into had an ocean view, and the Pacific painted a beautiful backdrop for Christien and Crystal’s ceremony. It was everything you could hope for in a summer wedding.

But this day wasn’t one of our favorites for the setting and the sunshine alone… It was a favorite because of the wonderful couple we were celebrating that day. Christien and Crystal are fun-loving, big hearted and deeply in love. They’re joy and excitement was contagious, and the group of friends who they’d gathered around them made the day even better!

Crystal was a breathtaking bride in her Galia Lahav gown, and the evidence of that was written all over Christien’s face as she walked down the aisle. They had chosen not to do a first look, which made that moment all the more powerful. It was a moment half a lifetime in the making. Though they’d had no idea when they originally met as high-schoolers that they would eventually come to it, each step of the way had prepared them for it, and for the new adventure they set off on that day!
