Malibu Cliffside Wedding

Planning a fairytale wedding for a former Bachelorette is a dream come true for any designer and when we met Ali Fedotowsky and her fiancé (now hubby) Kevin Manno we were equally overwhelmed by how humble, sweet and romantic they were. Ali is now a successful blogger who has curated her style and brand and had a very clear vision for her wedding. Throughout the planning process, her catch phrase became “light, bright and airy”. We took these buzz words and translated them through fresh neutral blooms, color blocked vintage lounge vignettes, and romanic hand calligraphed signage. Two of our favorite details of the day were the ceremony pergola adorned with billowing silk and wild blooms perched on the bluffs overlooking the ocean, and the escort card installation composed of discs hand washed with hues of mauve and fig calligraphy. However, the most photogenic moment of the day had to be when Ali and Kevin’s precious baby girl Molly, was wheeled down the aisle in a tiny wagon as part of the processional. After dinner, Ali and Kevin along with their closest friends and celebrity guests danced the night away to a 13 piece band and enjoyed s’mores and 3 decadent flavors of cake. It was the perfect day to celebrate the love within this incredible little family and we are so grateful to have been a part of this magical day.
