Magenta Floral Wedding at The Casino San Clemente

Lauren and Zachary met outside of The Casino San Clemente for their first look on the afternoon of their wedding day. On their photographer’s go, Zachary turned around to see his beautiful bride standing before him in a boho, lace wedding dress. Smiles immediately filled their faces as the two shared sweet compliments. After posing for the camera together, the couple joined their wedding party for group pictures before lining up for the ceremony.

Guests entered the Rock Garden and found their seats. Magenta flowers marked the back of the aisle and decorated the fireplace mantle ahead. Once everyone was in attendance, the music cued up and the wedding party made their entrances ending with Lauren. In front of all their closest friends and loving family, Zachary and Lauren read handwritten vows, exchanged rings, and sealed the ceremony with a kiss.

To commence cocktail hour, the newlyweds popped some bubbly and poured it into a champagne tower with an uproar of cheers from the crowd. Live music filled the air while Roasted Red Cherry Tomato Bruschetta and Glazed Pear and Goat Cheese Tarts were tray passed around the Patio of the Stars. The bride and groom snuck away for photos on the beach while guests mixed and mingled, and upon their return, it was time for the reception.

Inside, tables were topped with vibrant yellow, orange, and magenta floral centerpieces, candlesticks, and napkins. Once everyone was seated, the newlyweds made their grand entrance, shared their first dance, then took a seat at their sweetheart table. Toasts were shared and Tri-Tip Carvery, Vegetarian Rotolo Bolzano, Mashed Potatoes, Grilled Marinated Vegetables, and Pear and Walnut Salad filled everyone’s plates. The dinner menu was selected by the bride and groom with help from our event specialist, Brittany. After dinner the couple invited everyone to indulge in a little something sweet for dessert and hit the dance floor. The evening ended with everyone showing off their best moves and sharing their well wishes with Lauren and Zachary.
