The lure of the beach intrigued Melissa and Alex. The rolling waves, the sand between their toes, and endless sunshine. Once they stumbled upon the Malibu West Beach Club, they knew their wedding venue dreams had come true! The intimate space sat right on top of the beach and overlooked the ocean. It was perfect.
Together they invited their friends and family to cheer, and support their storybook love in one of the most beautiful places in the country. The light bathed the guests in its beautiful glow as they exchanged their vows, then sealed them with a kiss!
Melissa and Alex, thank you for inviting me to celebrate with you. Your wedding was nothing short of a fairytale. I wish you a lifetime of happiness and success! Much love and appreciation…Michaela
The wedding day began in the getting ready room at Malibu West Beach Club…
All of her wedding day details coordinated perfectly…
Melissa’s bridesmaids gowns were one of our favorite wedding colors…peach. The color truly looks good on every skin tone…
Melissa was having fun getting all dolled up for her wedding day…
Last minute wedding preparations…
They told her, her dad was going to be coming in to see her…hence the surprised look on her face…
…but it ended up being the most tear jerking moment as they hugged…
…followed by a surprise note from her fiancé….
…which made her start bawling all over again…
Afterwards, she got her makeup retouched, while all the guests were being seated for the ceremony on the patio…
Her dad was so proud to give away his daughter to the man of her dreams…
At the beginning of the ceremony, they combined two jar of sand into one to symbolize their unity.
The groomsmen looked on admiring the symbolism…
Then in a blink of the eye, the moment came when it was time to seal their vows with a kiss!
After the ceremony, we all went downstairs to the beach to take bridal party photos.
The groomsmen were way more into it this time…
Then, one of our favorite times of the day…the bride and groom portraits…
Melissa and Alex didn’t have a first look, so this was the first time they had a moment alone together all day…
…and they definitely soaked up every second of it…
Meanwhile, the reception decor was being set up by the wedding coordinator and her team…
Everything tied in together perfectly…
Their first dance had everyone sniffling…
Before dinner even began, the whole crows started dancing, and cheering as the bride danced with her brother…
Melissa had no fear as she belted the lyrics to one of her favorite songs…
…and before we knew it, the night came to an end! Congratulations Melissa and Alex!
Many thanks to the incredible team of vendors that helped shaped this beautiful wedding day…
Venue : Malibu West Beach Club
