Fall Is Our Favorite Time Of The Year! 

And it's great time to Elope with us...

Jennifer and Donny came from Indiana to spend the week in San Diego and get married and honeymoon. We LOVED her fun, blue dress and beautiful smile... her brother Steve traveled from Los Angeles and the five of us had a wonderful afternoon... seriously fun! Perfect weather and sunset.

The beaches are less crowded, we have beautiful sunsets and the temps are usually pretty mild. 

Okay, this week we hit 100 yesterday, and high 90's the beginning of the week but that's really unusual,  breaking records for November.  It was 93 degrees for Jennifer and Donny, and it's worth repeating, the most beautiful sunset ever.

Here in San Diego we can boast that we have the best weather in country pretty much all year around, that's why it's so perfect for Coronado beach weddings. If it's freezing in Chicago, it's warm here, if it's baking hot in Phoenix, it's mild here... if it's raining in Seattle, it's not raining here.....you get the idea!

Crysti and Barry's wedding day.... another beautiful fall wedding on Coronado Bay behind the
San Diego Convention Center at sunrise. Crysti and Barry traveled from Long Beach to spend their morning with us.  Just check out those birds...

AND MORE FALL STORIES .... We love Fall for other reasons as well...

 Halloween and Halloween Parties.  

 









We were thrilled to be part of the celebration for Second Chance Dog Rescue Party and Auction as they celebrated finding forever homes for 2000 dogs in just 2 years.  About 200 people attended the event at the San Diego Country Club Saturday night.   We donated a beautiful black and white photograph of "Curly" that we purchased while volunteering at Best Friends Sanctuary in Utah.  It was signed by the photographer Gary Kalpakoff (pictured with his horse).   Curly is one of the VICKtory Dogs rescued from the dog fighting ring of NFL player Michael Vick.  A wonderful story of a second chance.

 

We also got to hear the incredible story of "Nubs" brought back from Iraq by Marine Major Brian Dennis.  This is a dog story to beat all dog stories.  Major Dennis, fed and loved his new friend,  when it was time to leave, he had to make the tough decision to leave the dog behind to fend for himself.  Nubs would have no part of that.... found his way back to the platoon that had traveled over 70 miles away in the snow!

Of course we would have to mention our costumes... did I mention our costumes?

  BRIDE of Frankenstein, and Frankenstein. 

Steve called me his Mrs. "F" all evening. 

Happy Fall- it's not over yet, we have five couples that are eloping with us
and getting married this weekend.
