The Prado at Balboa Park is a National Historic Landmark which was originally built for the 1915-16 Panama-California Exposition. This two year festival was held in Balboa Park to promote San Diego and to celebrate the 1914 opening of the Panama Canal.
Susan and Shirley exchanged their vows at The Casa del Rey Moro garden (House of the Moorish King)
This garden was designed by Richard Requa for the 1935 California Pacific International Exposition and influenced by the Moorish gardens of Ronda, Spain.
This garden was so perfect to celebrate Shirley and Susan's Love.
For their pre-ceremony music, Shirley and Susan wanted some fun and upbeat tune to bring their guests into a festive and fun ambiance.
The ceremony was quite emotional as the officiant was Shirley's own sister Maria.
Tears of joy were definitely dropping!
The reception was held on the loggia on the 1st floor with an unique and gorgeous view of Balboa park.
For their cocktail hour, we played a lot of the 80s music. Beside getting married that day, Susan and Shirley were also celebrating their 30 years together!
We also played a mix of their favorite artists including Seal, Tracy Chapman or Everything But the Girl. Same for dinner with more upbeat songs!
We loved working for Susan and Shirley, it was a fantastic night and we couldn't be happier for these two women!
This night will stay for sure forever in their memory!
These two incredible individuals and have been the perfect match for each others since 1983!
Cheers to another 30 years together..and more!
We are wishing Shirley and Susan a lifetime of love and happiness together!
