With a truly international guest list, Alia and Ben certainly had a wedding day rich in culture, laughter, friends, family, and new beginnings. The couple’s love story definitely makes us believe in destiny (you’ll hear Ben’s brother talk about the couple’s long road to love!) To make the day even more special, the bride wore a gorgeous flowing gown tailor-made just for her. From the very heartfelt ceremony, to the exotic belly-dancer, Alia and Ben’s wedding was a treat for everyone!

Ashley and Brian had a picture perfect wedding day! With the grand Don Cesar as the backdrop for their nuptials, the happy couple shared a day happiness, love and lots of laughter with family and friends. The bold colors of teal, gray and purple really made all the details of the day pop! The bridesmaids were gorgeous in flowing teal dresses that matched perfectly the groomsmen ties. The bridal flowers (you’ll see Ashley’s adorable reaction to her bouquet) were vibrant shades of purple with white and perfectly complimented the romantic purple uplighting in the Don’s King Charles Ballroom. The party rocked all night with everyone on the dance floor celebrating the newlyweds! Congratulations Ashley and Brian!

Wow, Melissa and Ricky know how to party and have fun with their family and friends! This amazing group of people literally were on the dance floor from the time the ballroom doors opened until the last dance! Oh, and there are so many chic details about the whole day – where to begin? Let’s start with Melissa’s absolutely soft, dainty and deliciously detailed wedding gown! She simply rocked that dress, right?!? The ceremony was full of Jewish tradition and Cantor Friedler’s warm voice echoed brightly throughout the Tea Garden! The chuppah was a piece of art itself, from the amazing flowers to the elegant chandelier! Walking into the ballroom was such a “WOW” moment – from the breathtaking floral centerpieces that accentuated the colors black, silver and white, to the fine linens, the elegant chivari chairs, and the incredible lighting that tied all this goodness together – guests were treated to a true night to remember! Mazel Tov to the newlyweds!

Michael couldn’t wait to be married to Brittany and was ready to go hours before the ceremony (how romantic!) Luckily his groomsmen were there to goof around and keep the groom occupied while his lovely bride-to-be and bridesmaids had girl-time and got ready for the big moment! Guests were truly in for a treat between the (equal parts) humorous and touching ceremony, the extraordinary cocktail party set around the sparkling pool, and the breathtaking party tent – we’re talking seriously delicious cuisine from Cafe Ponte, most amazing lighting/design from conceptBAIT, an awe-inspiring cake from Chocolate Pi, and great friends and family to help celebrate to these two sweet, thoughtful and delightfully in-love newlyweds!
