The Ebell Long Beach - Juliana + Paul

This chic NY couple celebrated their love at the Historical Ebell Long Beach. As the venue was naturally a gorgeous setting, the simplicity of this wedding truly brought out the love in the air!

There were soooo many sweet moments on Juliana and Paul's special day... from their banana love letter (it's tradition to eat it after reading!), to their romantic choreographed first dance, to when Juliana's uncle performed a Chinese love song, and especially when Paul's younger brother created the sweetest video montage of their life followed by a ukulele serenade. There were many happy tears all around... tears filled with joy and hearts filled with love!

Juliana walked down the aisle with a truly unique bridal bouquet styled by The Little Branch which included a mix of fresh and dried blooms of anemones, ranunculus, scabiosa pods, pampas grass, and eucalyptus. This style was also incorporated in their simple, yet beautiful centerpieces and napkin accents with a single sprig of eucalyptus.

And J+P's scrumptious King's Hawaiian Paradise cake was creatively displayed on gold shelving, along w/ Tres LA's delectable minis, and took the spotlight at the reception.

This was truly a wedding to remember with many joyful tears, serenades, great speeches, fun kissing games, and to top it all off... they ended the night with a little bit of Cali and had In-N-Out burgers waiting for their guests. Congratulations to Juliana and Paul... may you continue to live happily ever after on your stylish & unique adventures together!

Ebell Long Beach - Yazmin + Kevin

Kevin’s friends were ecstatic when he met Yazmin. A true "love at first sight" story...Kevin knew when they first met that she was the one he wanted to tie the knot with. Although his friends crack jokes about him being the last to get married, they all knew this would be the biggest celebration of all!

After an intimate ceremony at Our Lady of Refuge Catholic Church, Yazmin and Kevin celebrated the start of their new lives together with family and friends at the iconic Ebell Long Beach on a beautiful Autumn evening. With the gorgeous Spanish-revival setting of the Ebell, the Mariachi Los Imperiales filled the room with great energy to start off the reception... so much that Yazmin felt compelled to join in and surprise the guests with a few songs of her own and left everyone in admiration by her stunning surprise performance! Moving onto the Dinner Reception, the glowing candles and uplighting, rich oxblood colored blooms and lush linens made the venue come to life! The guests had the time of their lives enjoying heartfelt toasts, French macarons & mini cinnamon rolls prepared by Tres LA from the Dessert Station, and danced the night away... This day was very meaningful to both Yazmin and Kevin as it meant the world to them that her family flew in from Mexico in honor of their big day.

This day was also significant to Naomi, the founder of DNT Elite Events. Naomi met Kevin years ago through mutual friends and she couldn't have been happier when Kevin found his soulmate in Yazmin. When they asked her to plan their wedding, she was honored and knew she had to go above and beyond. Everyone seemed to have a great time at the wedding and it turned out to be a very special night filled with amazing food, laughter, libations, dancing, and a lot of reminiscing... not to mention a special serenade by Kevin to his new wife! The night was, above all, filled with lots of love and we couldn’t be happier about their marriage... We wish nothing but happiness, good eats & travels, and lots of little ones for Y + K!
