Sacred Mountain Julian Wedding // Liz & Jonathan

If you’re looking for a wedding venue with lots of greenery and romantic boho-rustic feels, Sacred Mountain Julian is the place for you! Just an hour away from San Diego but it brings very different vibes. There are many beautiful photo opts and pretty things around every corner. From the amazing mountain ranges, stunning sunset views, to their gorgeous secret garden, Sacred Mountain Julian is the perfect getaway for you free spirits. In addition, the whole venue crew was so welcoming and accommodating, making you feel like home while being there. Certainly, we had a great time!

Liz and Jonathan are world travelers and energies were contagious. I can feel it from the very first time we met, to our engagement session in Joshua Tree, and now to their beautiful Sacred Mountain Julian wedding. It was just amazing to see the love everyone had for these two sweethearts. The whole day was filled with so much love, happy tears, and lots of laughter. I’m honored to be a part of this special day!

As a Southern tradition, Liz and Jonathan buried a bottle of bourbon upside down at a secret spot at the venue as a “bribe” for mother nature (photos below). A few days before their wedding, the weather was gloomy and even rain in the forecasts, we were very worried! As it turned out, we had a beautiful sunny day, so I guess the tradition worked its magic!

To sum up, we had a blast at Sacred Moutain Julian! Special thanks to all amazing vendors who helped Liz and Jonathan’s day run so smoothly so they can really enjoy every minute of it! You guys really rocked! (Credits end of blog)
