SARAH & KYLE WEDDING AT THE PRADO

A PERFECT MATCH.COM PART 1

Their beautiful San Diego Wedding was at the historical Prado at Balboa Park. Balboa Park is perfect place for a San Diego Wedding and it makes for the perfect backdrop for amazing photos with it’s beautiful museum buildings, wishing well and ponds, long stunning hallways and arch ways, the “Blue” & “Wood”door, Koi pond, gardens and so much more.

This location was extra special to Sarah & Kyle, as this was where they had their first date.  Having first met through Match.com, their love blossomed and eventually Kyle took Sarah on the Ellen Degeneres show (Sarah’s favorite show) and to her surprise proposed on national TV. Then to both their surprise, Match.com donated $50,000 to their dream wedding. I can’t think of a couple more deserving of this wonderful blessing!  Their smaller wedding turned into a larger scale, beautiful destination wedding in San Diego – and of course, what better place than where it all began, The Prado at Balboa Park. From there they were asked to be guest judges on Cupcake Wars and the winning pastry provided them with cupcakes for their fun beachside Rehearsal dinner at Breakers Beach Deck in Pt. Loma, which was filmed for one of their episodes. For photos and details on the Cupcake Wars Rehearsal dinner, click here: Rehearsal Dinner Breaker’s Beach Pt. Loma read more

IN MEMORY OF THOSE WHO HAVE PASSED – MEMORIAL TABLE

In honor of the loved ones that couldn’t be there, there was a Memorial table decorated with a Manzanita Tree with flowers & candles delicately placed on the branches and a beautiful peony in special honor of Sarah’s mom. There was a sweet note and photos of those who have pasted in beautiful frames.  They were there in spirit!
