Our Story

What to do in the area!?

Our favorite places to eat in town!

South of Nicks- Best mexican food in all the land. If you want to be like us, order the La Tablita... and eat it all. Don't forget to order the butter cake too. Definitely make a reservation ahead of time.

Kawamata Seafood- Hole in the wall poke spot with Poke that will make you feel like&nbsp;you're sitting on the beach in Hawaii. Cash only!







High Tide Coffee- Cute local coffee spot, right by Sara's old apartment!&nbsp;







The Cellar- For the wine and cheese enthusiast.







Pizza Port- Because Pizza. Duh.&nbsp;

Wind and Sea- Go for the mai tais and sit on the outdoor patio...&nbsp;they cap you at 3 so you know they're worth it. Food is meh, but they have great happy hour prices, and awesome&nbsp;harbor views!





Riders Club- Burgers and craft beer. I say best burger in town.&nbsp;David pretends to not like them because they don't have fries (but they have delicious homemade kettle chips!), and they have 4 and a half stars off about 1000 reviews... so I think they're doing ok. Get the carnitas sandwich if you're not in the mood for a burger!

Have time to kill? Want to explore some?

We are thrilled to share why we love San Clemente with you all! From Del Mar street, to the beach trail, there's plenty things close by to keep you entertained. During the summer months, there is a trolley system that runs all through San Clemente, for free! With multiple pick up spots, and even routes connecting you to nearby Dana Point, it can take you pretty much anywhere you need to go. Take it down to the pier and walk along the beach trail, and stop for a pier beer if you get parched. Stop off at&nbsp;Del Mar street for some local shops and restaurants. Or even take it up to the outlets... but don't because they're not all that special and there's way better things to do than that.&nbsp;If you want some exercise, look up the flagpole hike on the Patriot Trail. About an hour- hour and a half round trip hike, with a gnarly hill, and some great ocean views at the top! Or a&nbsp;beach trail run&nbsp;followed by a dip in the ocean, that will do the trick too.&nbsp;

Q + A

If you are flying in, John Wayne is going to be your best bet! About a 30 minute drive down to San Clemente.&nbsp;

John Wayne Airport

Great location right by the Dana Point Harbor! The hotel offers bike rentals, a rooftop lounge, and a great location to walk over to the beach/harbor! It is about an 8 minute drive to the wedding venue.

DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Hotel Doheny Beach - Dana Point

We encourage guests to look for airbnb's in the area! San Clemente would be ideal, but if you want to stay in surrounding areas, Dana Point is 10-15 mins from the venue, and Laguna Beach is about 30 mins.

Airbnb

The San Clemente and Dana Point trolleys are back for 2021! This is a great option for transportation, and it's free! There is a trolley route in Dana Point that connects to the San Clemente route, so if you're staying at the double tree in Dana Point, you can easily get into San Clemente without a car. Check out the below website for details, trolley stops and routes, etc.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sanclementeguide.com/san-clemente-trolley">https://www.sanclementeguide.com/san-clemente-trolley</a>

Updates

3/1/2021 UPDATE: We are still hopeful for our new June date! However it is completely dependent on the venue as they have to abide by county guidelines and capacity restrictions. We will update our guests as soon as we have info, but we appreciate your flexibility. I encourage you to check cancellation policies as you book travel/lodging, but fortunately they are usually pretty forgiving in this new COVID era. Hope to see you all in June!!!&nbsp;UPDATE: We have made the decision to postpone our wedding.... again.&nbsp;While it was a tough one to make, we know it was the right one. We want our guests to feel comfortable to travel, and ready to celebrate. So here's to hoping 2021 has better news for us than 2020.&nbsp;

You should have received an email with a virtual change the date card. Please RSVP directly on this website, and we will notify guests as soon as we can with any further changes.&nbsp;





As always, reach out to me or David with any questions!&nbsp;Love you all, and can't wait to celebrate in June 2021.&nbsp;
