Modern & Colorful Forme Los Angeles Wedding

Colorful and modern was the theme for Jach and Hannah’s wedding day at Forme Los Angeles. The groomsmen and Jach poured a shot in the Sidecar Suite to calm their nerves and cheered to the groom’s future while Hannah and her bridesmaids got glammed up in the Sunburst Suite just upstairs. While hair and makeup was underway, bridesmaids snacked on Turkey Focaccia Sandwiches, Red & Green Grapes, and Mini Layered Basil Torte with Crackers. The groomsmen suited up and snacked on Turkey and Ham Hoagie Sandwiches, Red & Green Grapes, Mini Layered Basil Torte with Crackers before lining up for the ceremony. Once all the girls were ready upstairs, Hannah revealed her complete wedding look in the open-air loft. All of her bridesmaids were stunned by her beauty and hugs were shared all around before they met the guys downstairs.

Guests arrived to a vibrant ceremony space inside. A modern green, blue, yellow and orange backdrop stood tall at the head of the floral lined aisle. Little paper cones filled with petals were placed on each seat for guests to toss once the bride and groom sealed the deal. Once everyone had arrived, Jach was first to walk down the aisle followed by the rest of the party and ending with Hannah. The two read handwritten vows making friends and family laugh and cry while sharing their love story. A breaking bread ceremony was completed and rings were exchanged, then the officiant pronounced the two as husband and wife. Jach and Hannah kissed as the crowd cheered them on. Petals were tossed as the newlyweds made their exit out of the ceremony and into cocktail hour.

Lemon Parmesan Artichoke Hearts and Brioche Box hors d’oeuvres were tray passed as guests grabbed beer and wine from the bar. A colorful lounge space invited guests to kick up their feet while they sipped and snacked. Memories of the newlyweds were shared as the sun sunk below the horizon and before long, guests were finding their assigned table numbers. The bride and groom returned from their golden hour photos just as everyone was taking a seat back inside.

Tables were draped in ivory linen and wooden boxes filled with flowers acted as centerpieces bringing color into the modern blank canvas. Jach and Hannah made their grand entrance into their first dance in front of family and friends, then sat at their sweetheart table for toasts. Many laughs were shared as glasses filled with champagne were lifted into the air. Once toasts ended, dinner was served. Lemon & Thyme Glazed Chicken, Tortellini with Creamy Pesto, Mashed Potatoes, Grilled Marinated Vegetables, and Caesar Salad made up the wedding menu. With help from our Venue and Catering Manager, Rachel, the bride and groom selected the delicious meal during their planning process. The dinner was so good that some guests went back for seconds and thirds. The DJ pumped up the jams and invited everyone to the dance floor to show off their best moves. While everyone was dancing the night away, the newlyweds snuck away for a private cake cutting. A pressed flower, 2-tier wedding cake matched their theme perfectly. The couple each took a bite from the slice they cut off, then proceeded to playfully smash the cake in each others face. A candy and donut VW van opened up for guests to grab dessert and satisfy their sweet tooth. Afterwards, the evening wound down and everyone went to the courtyard with gold ribbons to send off the bride and groom. Jach and Hannah exited their wedding to an uproar of cheers and drove off in their decorated car.
