the historic public library is a staple of redondo beach, and carmen spent many weekends during her childhood perusing the books on its shelves. it only made sense for carmen and john to tie the knot at the redondo beach historic library, which transformed from an historic site to a gorgeous wedding venue! many of their close friends and family flew in from out of town for the occasion! john is from chicago, and carmen surprised him with a custom cake! their wedding was a fun-filled celebration and it was such an honor to be a part of capturing their day.
