In the Bu

Beckwith Road was off this weekend at a wedding. Yes, I know we said we hung up our wedding hat, but we dusted it off just this one last time and gave assistance to some dear friends, whose only son was married to the love of his life. The setting was beyond beautiful, on a private sprawling estate in the Bu (for those outside our area-that's Malibu). We could hear the waves crashing below and as the afternoon faded into evening, the sunset spanned the sky with golden splendor.

The Black Beauty Roses were stunning against the cream colored background, the bride was perfection, head-to-toe.

The cake colors tell the story, yes this is the color palette befitting the young groom who is a member of a Grammy nominated band. Deep black toned roses and calla lilies, black bands of silk around the cream colored cake. Even exotic peacock feathers grounded with lush black- red Ecuadorian roses placed in large, black, vintage vases adorned the tables designed by an Anthropologie visuals alumni. Overhead asian inspired creamy colored globes lit the expansive tent, lighting was provided from the band's own gear and a DJ spun tunes into the late hours. This was truly a very happy event!

The view at dusk. The ocean visible through the palm trees. This was a day to remember!
