THE ORANGE COUNTY LENS

This guide should feel like
it belongs here.

Orange County can move from coastal celebrations to garden, resort and estate settings without losing a polished Southern California feel.

SEASON: For outdoor celebrations, consider sun, wind and temperature at the exact ceremony hour.

PLANNING: Guest lodging, parking and coastal travel patterns can materially shape the day.

01
THE BIG IDEA

Start with the feeling

Write down three words you want guests to use when they describe your wedding. Use those words as a filter before falling in love with a floor plan.

02
