Minimalist Coastal Wedding Inspiration at Zachari Dunes on Mandalay Beach 🌊

Some stories are written by the sea.

This modern coastal wedding editorial at Zachari Dunes on Mandalay Beach blended fashion-forward design with cinematic storytelling — where the sound of the waves met the quiet beauty of minimalist style.

Captured by Jasper & Oak, this film was part of California Wedding Day’s inaugural Venue Tour — a celebration of creativity, design, and California’s most inspiring coastal venues.

The Story: Modern Minimalism by the Ocean

Set along the sun-soaked Ventura County shoreline, this Zachari Dunes wedding showcased the perfect balance of simplicity and sophistication.

The ceremony overlooked the sand and sea — sleek white chairs and sculptural ivory florals framed the horizon. The ocean breeze, soft music, and open blue sky created a feeling of calm intention — the kind of effortless beauty couples dream about when planning a Southern California beach wedding.

Inside the resort, the design flowed seamlessly into a modern coastal reception. Woven textures, creamy blooms, and candlelight filled the room, casting a warm glow that reflected the setting sun. For couples searching for modern coastal wedding inspiration in Ventura or Santa Barbara, Zachari Dunes embodies that refined California ease.

Cinematic Wedding Videography in Ventura County

As a Ventura-based wedding videographer, I approach every film with the same goal: tell the story of the day through movement, light, and emotion.

This project was all about capturing the rhythm of the coast — the way fabric moves with the wind, the sound of the surf behind vows, the subtle gestures that define modern romance.

Our focus at Jasper & Oak is cinematic wedding storytelling — handcrafted films that feel authentic, emotional, and timeless.

Whether you’re searching for the best wedding videographer in Ventura County or planning a coastal wedding in Santa Barbara or Ojai, our style blends artistry with real, lived emotion — creating films that feel alive long after the day ends.

The Details: Coastal Fashion and Modern Design

The bride’s look redefined beachside bridal fashion.

Her sculptural purse bouquet by @ednalove_floraldesign turned florals into art, paired perfectly with a sleek lace gown by @lemons.and.lace. The groom’s open-collar, vintage-inspired suit brought relaxed sophistication — a nod to timeless California style.

From hand-torn menus to layered linens, every texture reflected thoughtful simplicity. This Ventura County wedding film captures not just the visuals, but the feeling — a reminder that modern minimalism can still be full of soul.
