San Diego Iglesia ni Cristo Wedding and Julep Venue Wedding Reception
 

A small and warm ceremony for two San Diego souls who grew up here, fell in love here, and promised forever here. Gladys and Aldrin’s wedding was rooted in home, history, and a love that had been growing for years.

Their Iglesia ni Cristo wedding ceremony in San Diego was intimate and full of meaning. Surrounded by close family, they shared vows that carried so much emotion. Even after years together, their tears came so easily, and every moment felt soft, sincere, and deeply personal.
