Indoor Reception

Our Wedding

It was a Christmas visit to San Diego that changed everything. Brandon, home from Tennessee, had heard about a talented drummer named Lilly who played at church that Sunday morning. Curious and hopeful, he introduced himself—though Lilly didn’t recognize him at first. Soon, she realized he was Gary and Esther’s son, who previously invited her to live in their studio apartment. From that moment on, sparks quietly began to fly.They discovered a world of shared connections: the same college, mutual friends, musical passions, even the same dentist—yet somehow, their paths had never crossed until now. After a sweet conversation and a helping hand with her drum gear, Brandon returned to Tennessee. But something had begun.Emails turned into phone calls, and by spring, another visit brought them closer. In May, during Lilly’s trip to Tennessee, they made it official. Despite the miles between them, their hearts stayed close. After months of cross-country visits, they joked that skipping the airfare and getting married might be the easier route—well, sort of.Then came October. On a golden evening at Mt. Soledad, Brandon surprised Lilly with a token of his love as the sun dipped below the horizon. Her “yes” came without hesitation. Now, with hearts full and hands joined, they’re ready to begin the beautiful journey of marriage—together.

Q & A

Jamul is located in the mountains of San Diego. It can be cold! The ceremony will be indoors but the reception will be outdoors. It can get pretty cold when it gets darker. We will have heaters but please bring a coat or jacket with you. Also, ladies! I would not recommend thin heels ;) There will be grass and dirt areas at the reception location.
