Pastel Floral Grand Gimeno Wedding

After getting ready inside the Powder Room and Parlor, Jessica and Peter met in the Foyer for their first look. A tap on the shoulder turned Peter around to see his beautiful bride standing before him dressed in an applique gown and trailing veil. The couple read personalized vows to one another, then joined their wedding party in the Olive Grove for group pictures. The bridesmaids wore light blue, and the groomsmen were dressed in navy. Smiles were shared as the photographer snapped pictures, then the group lined up for ceremony.

Guests entered the Olive Grove, signed the couple’s guest book, and took a seat. Pastel flowers lined the aisle and marked the space where the bride and groom would soon be standing. As soon as everyone was in attendance, the wedding party made their entrances. In front of all their closest friends and family, Peter and Jessica recited vows, exchanged rings, and sealed the ceremony with a kiss.

Wood-Fired Neapolitan and Meat Lovers Pizzas were being cut and served while Roasted Cherry Tomato Bruschetta and Mini Ahi Taco hors d’oeuvres made their rounds. Guests stopped by the bar for signature Pineapple Margarita and Cadillac Margarita cocktails along with beer, wine, and other beverages. Guests mixed and mingled until it was time to head inside for reception.

Tables were topped with candles and large floral centerpieces in mauve, purple, blue, pink, yellow and white. Jessica and Peter made their grand entrance, shared their first dance, and took a seat at their sweetheart table. Tri-Tip Carvery, Chicken Marsala, Vegetarian Rotolo Bolzano, Mashed Potatoes, Grilled Marinated Vegetables, and Caesar Salad were served. The menu was selected by the bride and groom with help from our event specialist, Patti. While everyone enjoyed dinner, toasts were made. Afterwards, the couple cut into their 2-tiered red velvet cake and invited their guests to indulge in our Kouign Amann Dessert Station for a little something sweet. The evening ended with some dancing and plenty of shared well wishes for the newlyweds.
