Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel Wedding | Sarah & Stephen

Sarah and Stephen’s chic and elegant seaside wedding at the Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel was so much fun to plan and I absolutely adore these two!  They live in Chicago which made for a wonderful destination wedding for a lot of their friends who flew in for the occasion!  Sarah looked absolutely radiant in her Oscar De la Renta gown – one of my all-time favorites! And Sarah wore the most fabulous blush Oscar De la Renta heels to match and a lush bouquet of perfect white tulips to complete her timeless and elegant look on her wedding day. Stephen’s sweet emotional reaction to his bride-to-be during their first look says it all! Nisie from Nisie’s Enchanted created an exquisite ceremony site, with a lucite structure bursting with white blooms of roses, hydrangea and greenery sitting atop a white carpeted stage. It was a picture perfect day, with the Pacific Ocean glistening behind the two lovebirds as they said their I Do’s.  Sarah’s bevy of beautiful bridesmaids all wore different black gowns which was so chic and popped against the white décor.  Following the ceremony, guests enjoyed cocktails and delicious hors d’oeuvres outside before moving in to the ballroom for dinner and dancing. Nisie and her team tied in the all-white theme into the ballroom with beautiful floral centerpieces comprised of garden roses, spray roses, hydrangea, tulips and greenery, that sat atop luxe white matte satin linens.  One of the main focal points of the reception was the decadent dessert display with so many gorgeous – and delicious treats!  Sarah and Stephen sure knew how to make an entrance, as they were lead into their reception by the amazing Jillina's Sahlala Dancers who put on an incredible performance to get the party started!  Guests danced the night away and indulged in late night burgers from the Orange County local favorite TK Burgers truck – yum! It was such a wonderful occasion that I am so grateful to have been a part of. Congratulations Sarah and Stephen!Photos Courtesy of Jasmine Star
