A Luxurious Balboa Bay Club Wedding


Our lovely bride and groom dreamed of having a wedding by the ocean and the Balboa Bay Club was the perfect location. The staff at Balboa Bay Club is amazingly helpful and we love working with them.

The bride's sofreh aghd was the inspiration for the look of the ceremony and reception in rich and elegant gold and pearl with lots of sparkle. A sofreh aghd is a Persian tapestry made of a luxurious fabric; usually termeh which is gold, embroidered and made from cashmere and soft wool.

This color palette was pulled into the invitation design by Artiface, which were tied with pretty silk bows. The bridal bouquet by Asiel Design was classic and gorgeous in white roses and callas, stems wrapped in golden silk fabric. It looked so perfect next to the lace bridal gown designed by Oscar de la Renta.







The ceremony flowers were breathtaking in all white and placed in beautiful clear vases containing even more flowers. The pews were adorned with arrangements and flowing silk fabric, creating an elegant and luxurious feel.

Cocktail hour had a more ocean feel and was decorated with beautiful Wildflower Linen tablecloths in aqua blue in a bubble-like pattern. Asiel Design created some gorgeous floral arrangements for cocktail hour in yellow, fuchsia and orange that were reminiscent of a California sunset; and the bride surprised her groom with a very romantic gondola ride at sunset, just before cocktail hour!





The reception was romantic, elegant, rich and incredible! The centerpieces overflowed with gorgeousness and pearls were draped over the vases. The linens were white and beautifully textured and we placed candles and lovely items in gold and pearls throughout the room.
