Autumnal Celebration

Marcelle Howard and Sean Goodsell chose Coronado, CA and the Hotel Del as their wedding destination. They reside in Los Angeles but decided to have a destination wedding. She is currently attending USC in the Executive MBA and he is in commercial real estate. The week of her wedding happens to be the week of her finals as well. You couldn't see the stress on the face, nor worries about having to study for finals.

She wore a stunning A-line/mermaid style Badgley-Mischka gown, while her bridesmaids wore black dresses.

The decor was more organic something of a rustic, outdoor feel. He proposed to her in Yellowstone National Park so she wanted the simple easy feel since they both love the outdoors. Dominant colors were chocolate, ecru and green. Tables were draped in olive lamour linens with a green overlay. We completed the table with mahogany chiavari chairs. Florals were tropical mostly white Phalenophsis orchids. We covered the ceiling with gobos in the design of leaves and branches, using amber lighting to create more the fall weather feel.

Following heart felt speeches, a four course meal, guests were treated to a nice wedding cake along with a dessert and coffee bar.

Pop Vinyl band from Los Angeles dazzled the crowd all night long, playing sets from 70s, 80s, 90s and current singles.
