Romantic and Colorful El Chorro Wedding

May 13

Bride and groom embracing, bride laughing and groom smiling close to her face.

We were so excited to be a part of this romantic and colorful El Chorro wedding. The bright colors of hot pink ranunculus, bougainvillea, peachy roses, and plenty of greens brought a fun palette to the celebration. The designs Anna of Hudson Grey dreams up are always a joy to see come to life on a wedding day. Such a fun escort board display by Arch & Arrow perfectly placed to define the cocktail hour space. You can’t miss checking out the larger than life cowboy boot sign for the afterparty space.

Ceremony

The ceremony featured a lush, low ground arc. We absolutely love in this space to highlight the amazing views with a key floral anchor to showcase the floral style. Ground floral arcs are wonderful to transition to later portions of the celebration as well. This rounded arc was moved to the reception.

Cocktail Hour

The back of the main event lawn made for a nice use of space for guests to enjoy the view and ceremony floral for a bit longer. It encouraged guests to utilize the space for the iconic photos in the key El Chorro spaces.

Reception

The reception was held outside on the patio of Casa Paloma. It was a perfect head table situated on the corner of the patio to have lush trees all around. It was an intimate space with mountain views in the background. Chandeliers over the head table paired with a generous portion of a variety of white candles made for a romantic glow of light as the sun went down. The bride’s favorite touch might have been the ceremony ground arc being pulled to on the ground in front of the head table. Her face says it all. Anna of Hudson Grey orchestrated this great transition from ceremony to reception as a surprise detail for the bride.
