I t was sixth grade when they met. It wouldn’t be true if I said it was “love at first sight,” because Julie and Ronald didn’t get along at first.

Somewhere down the line, feelings changed between the two. They started dating. Fast forward through junior high, high school as sweethearts, college, adulthood, and the many moments between these milestones, they stand before their family and friends to make it official.

Julie and Ronald are married! Their wedding was a mix of organic and rustic elements. The green and white florals juxtaposed beautifully against the red brick walls at BRICK in Liberty Station, San Diego. Greenery, wood pieces, and pops of copper metallics decorated the space.

I love the gift that Julie gave her bridesmaids — monogrammed navy blue puffy vests.
