NoteI don't usually shoot at Point Lobos.
Last entry is 6:30pm and everyone's out by 7:00pm, year-round, which kills golden hour from April through September. The wedding-ceremony permit adds real cost and application friction on top of that. For the same Carmel-area dramatic-coast feel, Stewart's Cove or Soberanes Trail give you everything Point Lobos does without the timing pinch or the permit. If your heart is set on Point Lobos specifically, get in touch and I can recommend a colleague who works there often.
