Shauna and Jon’s ceremony unfolded on the bluffs overlooking the Pacific, with the sun dropping toward the horizon as they exchanged vows. By the time their Jewish ceremony ended, the sun had set completely. Family heirlooms were incorporated into the ceremony, adding meaningful touches to the Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel’s oceanfront setting. The rest of the day shifted between two distinct settings. Outside, Shauna and Jon envisioned something with a rustic, Italian influence. Indoors, they moved […]

Portugal already had a place in their relationship. Mona and […]
A Sangjit, Tea Ceremony, and Night Reception in This Meaningful Chinese Malaysian Wedding
Yvonne and Marco’s wedding moved through several distinct celebrations, each with its own look. The morning began at home amid red double-happiness symbols, family traditions, and door games before the couple changed for a colorful tea ceremony. By night, the reds and oranges had given way to white, navy, and emperor yellow, the couple’s feng shui colors, with orchids, sheer draping, low-lying fog, projections, and blue light filling the reception. There was plenty happening between […]
This Dutch Wedding Inside the Marl Caves of Chateau Neercanne Is Completely Transporting
Lena and Koen had always pictured getting married in Italy. Then they visited Chateau Neercanne in the Netherlands and found a little street winding through the property, multiple spaces that could take guests through each part of the day, and, most unexpectedly, marl caves built into the hillside.

A Vibrant Moroccan Wedding Weekend That Brought Two Families Together for the First Time
Brittany’s family lives in the United States. Moha’s lives in Jordan. Their parents had never met in person, so when the couple began planning a destination wedding, they searched for somewhere that could bring everyone together. Morocco became their meeting point.

A 250-Year-Old French Château Found on Airbnb Made the Most Magical Elopement Backdrop
Ashley and Remy found their wedding venue the same way some find a place to stay on vacation: on Airbnb. Except their rental was a blush pink, 250-year-old château in the South of France, complete with sprawling lawns, olive trees, a wisteria-covered pergola, weathered stone walls, and a pool. They booked the château for three nights and brought in little more than a picnic blanket and flowers they picked up in nearby Fréjus. Their French […]
Wisteria and Moss Frame This Romantic Springtime Florida Garden Wedding
Hanging wisteria stretched above the dance floor, moss cascaded from the oak trees above the ceremony, and lavender, blue, and green flowers filled gold vases throughout Sydonie Mansion. Kylie and Logan built their Florida garden wedding around a venue that already had much of what they were looking for, then spent the better part of a year adding their own details. That included far more than a few pieces of signage. Kylie embroidered handkerchiefs for […]
