How to Have a Luxury Chic Wedding in San Diego
This luxury chic wedding shoot is blooming with inspiring ideas for the modern-day couple. Black and white accents with pops of color create a warm, sophisticated vibe throughout the design at Pendry in downtown San Diego. If you’re looking for a rehearsal dinner/cocktail venue, give this place a look!
The bride sported two gorgeous looks for the occasion, while the groom looked dapper in a white jacket and red velvet bow tie. The dessert table was decked out with not one, or two, or three…but FOUR modern wedding cakes. Which begs the question...Why only have one? Tres Chic Affairs beautifully pulled this shoot together with some amazing vendors and Dear Lovers Photography behind the lens. See it all below and grab a closer look in the full gallery.
modern roaring 20s vibe
From Tres Chic Affairs: We had an amazing day shooting at the luxury chic Pendry San Diego Downtown where guests are greeted by the cozy fire and a retro cocktail bar bringing us all the roaring 20s feels for today's world. Fifth and Rose is the perfect place to host rehearsal dinner or cocktail hour for weddings and events! From the gorgeous lighting to the rich colors of the Pendry, Tres Chic Affairs was truly excited for this collaboration!
the flowers
Captured by the sweetest photographer duos Dear Lovers, and florals brought to you by the ONE AND ONLY Tam Ashworth, which was once Isari Flower Studio. We were so incredibly lucky to be working closely along Tam on what would now be one of her last projects before saying goodbye to this industry. The fairy godmother of florals for this industry has an incredible eye to detail when pairing the vibrant colors the Pendry has to offer.
FOUR WEDDING CAKES
Did I also mention we have not one...not two...not even three BUT FOUR wedding cakes?! Created and executed by the oh so talented Stevie of Hey There Cupcake designed these elegant modern wedding cakes! Why limit to just one am I right? We are so beyond proud of this shoot & hope to share it with the world!
