Tangerine Florals and Kawaii Details Decorated This Spring Wedding At Grand Gimeno

Monique and Thomas met outside in Grand Gimeno’s Olive Grove for their first look. A tap on the shoulder turned Thomas around to see his beautiful bride standing before him in a floral applique wedding dress holding a vibrant bouquet of orange flowers. Compliments were shared between the two and photos were snapped before they lined up for the ceremony.

Guests filed into the Olive Grove, signed the bride and groom’s guest book, then took a seat. Peach, yellow, and orange flowers marked the back of the aisle and decorated the space under the olive trees where the ceremony would be taking place. As soon as everyone was seated, the wedding party made their entrances. In front of all their closest friends and loving family, Thomas and Monique read personalized vows, exchanged rings, and sealed the ceremony with a kiss.

In the Olive Grove, Filet and Wild Mushroom Wellingtons, Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms, and Crab Cakes were tray passed, and Whiskey Sour and Classic Margarita signature drinks were served. Everyone mixed and mingled while the newlyweds snuck off for golden hour romantics around the venue. Upon their return, it was time to head inside for the dinner reception.

Inside, tables were topped with orange floral centerpieces, mint napkins, and light blue name cards. Monique and Thomas made their grand entrance, shared their first dance, then took a seat at their sweetheart table. Toasts were shared and Zucchini Lime Chicken, Filet Mignon Carvery, Vegetarian Rotolo Bolzano, Mashed potatoes, Grilled Marinated Vegetables, and Caesar Salad was served. The dinner menu was selected by the bride and groom with help from our event specialist, Brittany. After dinner, the newlyweds cut into our Vintage Heart Cake that they topped with bride and groom Hello Kitty figurines. To treat their guests to something sweet, the couple added our Kouign Amann Dessert Station to their order. Guests lined up to grab one of the delicious pastries, then hit the dance floor. The evening ended with guests trying their hand at the claw machine, lots of dancing, and plenty of well wishes shared with Monique and Thomas.
