Melanie and Daniel’s wedding was the perfect blend of elegance and adventure. After a sweet first look at Rancho Bernardo Inn, they exchanged vows at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, with giraffes and rhinos roaming the savanna just beyond. Guests sipped on boba, swayed to live music, and got up close with a parrot, porcupine, and armadillo—bringing wild magic to this uniquely Southern California celebration.
