Celestial Wedding at The Estate on Second

Jacqui and Amir arrived at The Estate on Second ready to tie the knot! Jacqui in her lace wedding gown and Amir in his grey suit wandered around the venue with their photographer posing for photos together before guests arrived, then headed inside to hide away until their walk down the aisle. Guests were welcomed by a celestial sign ushering them inside for the wedding. A golden moon backdrop decorated with floral arrangements was set up as the ceremony backdrop and sparkling chandeliers hung above. Once everyone was in their seats, the bride and groom made their grand entrances. In front of all their closest friends and family, the two read personalized vows, exchanged rings, and sealed the ceremony with a sweet kiss as everyone cheered from their chairs.

Filet and Wild Mushroom Wellingtons and Crab Cakes were tray passed around during cocktail hour and bartenders were mixing up the newlywed’s signature drinks, a Coconut Mai Tai and Old Fashioned. While everyone mixed and mingled, the couple spent time away from the crowd to soak in all their newlywed bliss, then headed back to their party for reception.

Tables were topped with white flowers and gold accents inside the Crystal Ballroom. Guests checked the seating chart and found their assigned tables. The bride and groom made their grand entrance and took a seat at their sweetheart table. Ensalada Las Mesas, Cabernet Braised Short Ribs, Chicken Sonoma, Roasted Broccolini and Gourmet Mashed Potatoes were served just in time for toasts. The meal was chosen by the bride and groom with help from our Event Specialist, Selena. After toasts Jacqui and Amir cut into their two-tiered marble wedding cake and shared their first dance. At the end of their dance, the couple invited everyone to enjoy our Ice Cream Station with chocolate fudge, caramel, peanuts, sprinkles, whipped cream, Oreos, toffee and cherries and hit the dance floor. After creating many memories and working up an appetite from all the dancing, late night snacks were served. Our Melt Bar opened providing Quattro Formaggi Melts and Blackberry, Brie, Bacon, and Jalapeno Melts to ensure everyone was sent off satisfied. The evening ended with everyone wishing the bride and groom well and sending them off in an uproar of cheers.
