San Clemente
Elopement Experience
Casa Romantica to San Clemente Pier, elopement in paradise
This San Clemente elopement experience begins with a first look and portraits at Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens, followed by a beach ceremony near the San Clemente Pier.
It’s a simple, intentional flow — starting with architecture and finishing at the ocean.

A More Intentional Coastal Experience
This San Clemente elopement experience is designed to feel relaxed, without losing structure.
We start in a quiet, controlled setting, then move naturally toward the coast.
No rushing.
No complicated timeline.
Just a clear, easy progression through the day.
Casa Romantica Portrait Experience
We begin with a first look at Casa Romantica, followed by a one-hour portrait session throughout the property.
With ocean views, gardens, and Spanish-style architecture, it offers a completely different feel than the beach.
This part of the experience is focused on portraits — using the space for what it does best.
Full ceremonies at Casa Romantica require a private event booking, so this experience is designed around access for photography.
Ceremony at the Beach
After portraits, we head down toward the San Clemente Pier.
Your ceremony takes place on the sand, with the ocean just steps away.
Simple. Natural. No setup required.
Depending on the time of year, this often lines up with sunset.
Availability
Because of the popularity of Casa Romantica for larger weddings and events, this experience is typically available Monday through Thursday.
Occasionally, weekend availability opens up on short notice when the property is not booked.
