Allison & Kevin Wedding

Allison & Kevin's Reception at Plaza De Magdalena

We had the honor of doing Allison & Kevin’s wedding reception.  The reception was at Plaza De Magdalena in San Juan Capistrano California.

We had DJ, photo booth, up-lights & cold sparklers.  The reception started with guest arrival in the courtyard.

The music playlist had a wide variety of genres for all of the guests.  

It great to work with such great wedding professionals.
