Last weekend, my family went to one of the more snazzier weddings I have been to in a long while. Our friends Erika and Scott got married at the Museum of Photographic Arts (MOPA) in Balboa Park. Balboa Park is one of the most picturesque landmarks in San Diego. My mom and dad used to take me and my sister there nearly every weekend because we loved walking around “El Prado”. Our favorite museum was The Ruben H. Fleet Science Center because of all the interactive displays.
The MOPA is a very modern and sleek space, but the wedding party and all of the decor and settings were very retro. Every picture that Erika was in was like an ad straight out of the 1940’s. One of our friends who was in the wedding party said that when they were walking around earlier with the photographers that people thought they were models for a photo shoot of some sort. Everyone certainly looked fantastic, but what I loved the most about the wedding was that they included Scott’s son Kai in the ceremony.
I always forget how beautiful Balboa Park is until I go back. It was nice that the cocktail hour was outside the Botanical Gardens. It allowed Dominic to run around a bit. I loved that they picked such a picturesque location because Erika is so beautiful and her and Scott make an amazing couple. Congratulations again and here’s to many years of wedded bliss to come!
This definitely looks like such a beautiful wedding, I love the Erika’s dress and the retro vibe. All of these photos are wonderful Cyrillynn! -xxoo
Thanks Madison! Erika is so stunning in person, it’s almost unreal! AND she is as wonderful a person as she is beautiful. It was a fun night.

What a stunning bride…love the retro flare! Looks like you had a great time!
Thank you V! It truly felt like we entered another place and time, so I made sure to dress Dominic accordingly. When Erika has little get togethers and parties, she’s always picking a different eras as themes. She had a 70’s skating party for her birthday one year at a skating rink!
