Ellen and Vinnie's wedding at Shutters on the Beach in Santa Monica was a beautifully intimate celebration, with only 30 of their closest friends and family in attendance.

The rain created an atmosphere of coziness and connection, adding an element of spontaneity and charm to the celebration. The intimate gathering allowed the couple to truly savor every moment, with the love of those closest to them surrounding them.
