Lindsay and Mark’s Wedding, Montage Laguna Beach

Lindsay and Mark were married this past weekend at the Montage Resort and Spa. It was touch and go weather mid week, but when Saturday came, it was warm, beautiful and represented Spring as we know it on the west coast. Almost 100% of the guests lived out of state so this was a treat as guests arrived in CA, to avoid the snow. Lindsay’s strawberry hair was so lovely with the gold applique lace dress from Claire Pettibone. This wedding reception was fun, but relaxed and residential was the vibe that RJACK Balthazar created for the couple.

So in love with the ceramic pieces, especially the artichoke for some reason. Various shades of coral and teal with accents of silver, black, white and natural greens…usually I like to limit the number of colors but this worked so well together.  And my sweet tooth cried when the mini cakes were being prepped for plating…how adorable were those cakes..and yes, some asked for to go boxes. A female guest said she refuses to cut into this work of art. Thanks Chenin for documenting this day for them! Another thanks to Joan, the amazing mother of the bride, who was a delight to work with and had a great sense of style. She had to plan 2 weddings in the same year, her other daughter is getting married in August!

The event had a super unique color combination and equally unique decor elements to match! This couple actually lives in Chicago so Jeannie from Details Details along w/R. Jack Balthazar helped their vision come to life over the long distance. Check out the incredible photos that were beautifully created byChenin Boutwell. One of our favorite photographers and just super cool chick to work with! Oh and in the video (and Chenin’s photos) you will see some shots of their amazing cakes. Yes… PLURAL. Linda Goldsheft created individual cakes for each guest!

Congrats guys! And Lindsay… all I have to say is thank goodness you were wearing a white dress so I could tell you apart from your sister!
