Pierpont Inn Ventura Wedding

Super fun and relaxed backyard wedding in the Ventura Foothills with a taco bar!

When Shanon and Jason first got in touch with me about their wedding at the Pierpont Inn Ventura, I was so excited – they were planning the most relaxed and laid back wedding with a taco bar! And who doesn’t love tacos?! Shanon and Jason are the nicest people and I couldn’t wait to shoot their wedding!

Bride and groom prep

I started shooting photos of Shanon getting ready at The Pierpont Inn, while my second shooter went over to the reception site to get some photos of Jason getting ready. The mood was relaxed and everyone seemed excited for the big day.

The ceremony

The wedding took place at the Rose Garnen at The Pierpont Inn, and it was a gorgeous garden ceremony. After the ceremony they went to sign their marriage license with a couple witnesses, and then they took a moment to relax, before we went and got some beautiful family portraits.

The afternoon

The wedding reception took place in a family member’s large back yard in the Ventura Foothills, overlooking the ocean. It was casual and relaxed, like a fun backyard get together with a taco bar.

It was a bright and sunny day, which was what the couple had hoped for. While the guests enjoyed some drinks, we stayed behind to take the family photos, followed by some photos of Shanon and Jason. My favorite photo from our couples session is Shanon and Jason in front of the glass doors at The Pierpont Inn.

During the reception they had a live band, which gave the afternoon a really chilled vibe. For the meal they had a taco bar, and it was super yummy. After the meal there were a few speeches, then the couple cut the wedding cake and the party got started. They also had several delicious cakes to choose from and a large variety of fresh baked cookies.
