Tropical Mesa Bella Wedding

Michelle and Jake met in the courtyard at Mesa Bella for their first look after getting ready with their best friends. A tap on the shoulder turned Jake around to see his beautiful wife standing before him in a lace wedding gown. The couple posed for photos together, then met up with their wedding party to line up for ceremony just as guests began arriving. On the side lawn, guests took a seat facing a beautiful backdrop view of Orange County. Tropical inspired floral arrangements marked the back of the aisle and pillars at the head. Once everyone was seated, live music cued up and the wedding party made their way down the aisle. Together in front of all their closest friends and family, Michelle and Jake read handwritten vows, exchanged rings, and sealed the ceremony with a kiss.

Back in the courtyard, Mini Al Pastor Tacos and Fig, Goat Cheese and Mascarpone Tarts made their rounds while the bar served up the newlywed’s signature drinks, a

Watermelon Margarita and Mojito. Guests mixed and mingled around the pool and the bride and groom thanked everyone for coming to celebrate their love story. As cocktail hour came to a close, everyone checked the seating chart and headed to the palm tree garden lawn for reception.

Tables surrounded a white dance floor and were topped with tropical centerpieces. The bride and groom made their grand entrance, shared their first dance, then took a seat at their sweetheart table. Champagne toasts were shared and Cabernet Braised Short Ribs and Roasted Atlantic Salmon with Caesar Salad, Roasted Broccolini, and Dauphinois Potato Tower was served. The plated meal was selected by Michelle and Jake with help from our event specialist, Patti. After dinner the couple cut into their wedding cake and invited their guests to indulge in some dessert before hitting the dance floor. The evening ended with a beautiful sunset and lots of dancing with the bride and groom in celebration of their marriage.
