Rancho Bernardo Inn Wedding | Esther + Yoon




Esther and Yoon's Rancho Bernardo Inn wedding in San Diego, CA was absolutely gorgeous! Esther had always envisioned getting married surrounded by white roses and RBI was truly the perfect fit. This lovely couple met randomly at a bar when they were 21 and the 'officially' met again through a mutual friend 4 years later. Talk about a small world! Yoon then proposed on New Years Eve at the same place her had asked Esther to be his girlfriend.


When it came time to dive into wedding planner, Esther was on top of it! For her, it was really fun being able to take her time and slowly see everything come together. The hardest part was trying to picture everything in her head. It's one thing to see photos on Pinterest, and it's another to pull them all together and picture how it will look at your own wedding. If you ask me, Esther did a wonderful job, as her wedding was gorgeous!


On the wedding day, Esther looked absolutely stunning in her Martina Liana gown. After she was dressed and ready to go, she opted to do TWO different first looks: one with Yoon and one with her bridesmaids. Both were such special moments that were overflowing with emotion.
