Four Outfit Changes and One Huge Dance Party Wedding at Hangar 21 South

Jazmine and her bridal party got ready upstairs in the bridal suite while Raffy and family waited patiently on the tarmac. Bejeweled in gold and dressed in red, Jazmine headed downstairs for her first look with her bridal party and parents. On the count of three, her loved ones turned around and cheers filled the air. Supportive family and friends shared compliments, then it was time for Jazmine’s first look with Raffy. Nothing could have prepared Raffy for this moment, and when he turned around, tears immediately filled his eyes, and an emotional exchange was shared between the couple. The bridesmaids and groomsmen joined Raffy and Jazmine for group pictures on the tarmac, then everyone lined up for the ceremony.

Guests filed into the side patio and sat in a circular arrangement with the ceremony right in the middle decorated by red floral arrangements. Once everyone was in attendance, the wedding party made their entrances and sat on the stage leaving the middle for the bride and groom. In front of their closest friends and family, Raffy and Jazmine read vows, performed a tea ceremony, exchanged rings, and sealed the deal with a kiss. The couple joined their wedding party for a celebratory dance, then headed down the aisle and out into cocktail hour.

A fun French Fry Station with different dipping sauces surprised guests as they made their way onto the tarmac. Thai Chicken Spring Rolls and Shrimp Ceviche were tray passed and the bar was serving up Paloma and Mojito signature drinks. While everyone was mixing and mingling, Jazmine changed into her second outfit and headed to the helicopter with Raffy. The newlyweds posed for pictures, then took off on their flight over Orange County touching back down just in time for reception.

String lights were draped from the ceiling inside the hangar and tables were topped with candles and greenery. Guests cheered as the bride and groom made their grand entrance and shared a choreographed first dance together. Sweet and Sticky Korean Chicken, Vietnamese Lemongrass Pork, Short Grain Sticky Rice, Broccolini Spears, and Asian Cucumber Salad was served while guests shared toasts. The dinner menu was selected by the bride and groom with help from our event specialist, Lauren. After toasts, Jazmine changed again and performed a dance for her hubby ending the performance DJ'ing up in the mezzanine. The crowd was ready to party! The bride changed into her final outfit and made her way out to the dance floor. The evening ended with tons of pictures at the 360 booth and plenty of dancing.
