The Resort at Pelican Hill Wedding Weekend | Meena & Nimesh
As many of you know, Indian weddings are not just a one day affair and we had the honor of working with Meena, Nimesh and their families to create multiple days of joyful celebrations.Sangeet - Meena and Nimesh started their wedding weekend off with an incredible Sangeet at The Resort at Pelican Hill. Design elements consisted of a luxurious cocktail hour with daybeds adorned with custom made pillows and trays overflowing with floral arrangements and candlelight, as well as an enormous customized hedge bar that was definitely a show stopper! Shawna Yamamoto and her incredible team transformed the ballroom with white draping along the walls as well as from the ceiling to create separate tents with lounge seating beneath. Lanterns and vibrant orange marigold garlands and floral arrangements popped brightly against the white draping and gold mirrored tabletops. Guests dined on delicious food and enjoyed many entertaining dance performances throughout the evening. The night was filled with dancing, eating, laughter and of course, lots of love for Meena and Nimesh. It was such a wonderful way to kick things off!Wedding Ceremony, Baraat & Reception – After an amazing Sangeet, there was no doubt that Meena and Nimesh’s wedding day was going to be an incredible celebration full of fun and most of all – love! Meena was a vision of beauty in her gown Sabyasachi Couture that was perfectly complemented by her gorgeous jewelry that adorned her from head to toe. After the Baraat, where Nimesh was driven in a customized NYC taxi cab, we began the processional into the ceremony at the iconic Pelican Hill rotunda. Shawna Yamamoto transformed the existing structure with soft draping, floral bands, lush tall centerpieces and lined the aisles with green hedging. The ceremony was full of traditions, music and it was so incredible to witness the happiness and love between these two lovebirds and their families. It truly was such a joyous occasion! Cocktail hour was held on the Terrace, where guests enjoyed drinks and delicious bites while enjoying the breathtaking sunset. Meena and Nimesh were able to sneak into the ballroom for a few quick photos before guests arrived and I just love the images captured by Lin & Jirsa during those sweet moments alone before the reception started. White draping and chandelier treatments of natural lush greenery served as the backdrop to tables with tall and low lush centerpieces comprised of white roses tulips and orchids and ample greenery that Shawna created. We are so honored to have been a part of this wonderful wedding weekend and wish a lifetime of happiness and love to Meena and Nimesh!
