The Perry House: A Monterey Wedding Venue with Historic Charm

An Intimate & Elegant Wedding Day Flow

One of the things that makes a Perry House wedding so special is the way the venue’s layout allows for a seamless celebration. Jeffrey and Suzette’s day unfolded beautifully across the thoughtfully designed spaces:

• The Garden Courtyard – The perfect setting for their intimate and unconventional ceremony. Instead of a traditional processional, Jeffrey and Suzette chose to walk down the aisle together, side by side, symbolizing the life and partnership they’ve already built. Later in the afternoon, this space was transformed into a reception area, where guests enjoyed a beautifully arranged dinner.
• The Bay View Room – This cozy indoor space set the scene for cocktail hour, where guests mingled and enjoyed drinks while the staff transitioned the courtyard for dinner.
• The Porch & Fire Pit Lounge – A relaxed setting where guests could gather and enjoy the coastal breeze before heading into the reception.

The flow of the venue allowed Jeffrey and Suzette to be present in every moment, effortlessly moving from ceremony to celebration while soaking in the love and joy of their day.

Timeless Photography at a Perry House Wedding

A Thoughtful Approach to Portraits & Lighting

When photographing a Perry House wedding, we plan portraits with the venue’s unique transitions in mind. Since the Garden Courtyard is transformed into the reception space during cocktail hour, we guide our couples to picturesque nearby locations for their couple’s portraits and family photos. This ensures a stress-free experience, allowing them to fully enjoy their time while capturing beautiful, natural images.

Jeffrey and Suzette’s portraits reflected their elegant yet relaxed connection, blending the Victorian charm of The Perry House with the surrounding beauty of Monterey.

Walking Down the Aisle Together

One of the most beautiful and unique moments of the day was Jeffrey and Suzette’s decision to walk down the aisle together. Choosing to forgo tradition, they entered their ceremony hand in hand, a true representation of their partnership. This small but powerful decision set the tone for the day—one of equality, unity, and celebrating their journey as a team. Capturing this moment was an absolute honor, as it reflected their love story in such an authentic way.

Victorian Elegance & Classic Details

The Perry House is known for its intricate Victorian details, charming balconies, and classic wooden staircase, all of which added to the timeless feel of Jeffrey and Suzette’s wedding. Some of our favorite moments included:

• The anticipation as they took a deep breath together before walking down the aisle.
• The emotion in their eyes as they stood side by side, ready to say “I do.”
• The joy of celebrating with family and friends as their reception began.

These small yet significant moments captured the essence of their day—a celebration of love, family, and the journey they’ve built together.
