September 20th. 2011 by Abby Larson | Filed Under | 17 comments

We’ve been saving this next wedding for a day where we didn’t have too much scheduled…mainly so we could literally pause and gasp at each and every gorgeous photograph that Michael and Anna Costa snapped and devour each and every detail that Modern Day Design tucked inside this picture perfect wedding. So, in order to make the lovely last that much longer, we’ve put together a Buying Guide for this very fete, complete with approachable, affordable, totally fabulous deets on how to inspire your own just-like-this-wedding. But first, the wedding…oh and there is more gorgeousness right here in the gallery.

From Michael + Anna Costa Photographers Ltd.Carmen & Robert’s wedding was a beautiful event to behold. Their choice of venue for one, at the glorious Bacara Resort & Spa was the perfect place to encapsulate their vision of modern Hollywood glamour combined with a serene coastal atmosphere.

Carmen wore Vera Wang while Robert and his groomsmen adorned classic tuxedos. Beautiful, delicate floral was done by Modern Day Design featuring roses and peonies in pink pastels and white. As usual Bacara’s cake designers worked their magic, this time featuring an architectural simplicity with delicate pave like detail surrounding.

Ybarra Music’s cool sound and visual style emanated in the courtyard as guests dinned during sunset before heading into the stunningly lit ballroom by SWANK Audio Visual to dance the night away.

    @Sara...I could be mistaken, but I believe the photographers identified the wrong dress designer . It looks like Lazaro 3013 (my dress, too!). Again, I could be wrong, but it looks EXACTLY like my dress, but I think the bride altered the neckline a bit.

  10. those flowers are soooooo beautiful! & i just love the bridesmaids dresses - great style & color!

  11. Carmen says:

    Hi everyone! I'm actually the bride of this wedding :) It's nice to see all the nice comments. We absolutely loved our wedding and all of our vendors! I think one of our vendors that may not have been mentioned was the vendor that did our stationary - it was Nozza Studio in Long Beach! She did amazing work.

    As for the bridesmaid dresses - I looked far and wide to find this perfect dress. The girls all really liked it too. Here are the details:

    Belsoie Dress from Jasmine Bridal
    Style Number: L2064
    Color: Teal
    Length: Floor-Length

    And yes, my dress was actually Lazaro. It was all a dream come true!

  12. I simply adored Carmen & Robert, their wedding, and everything about it! Thanks for the love!

  13. Sara says:

    what a beautiful wedding! I hope to have one just like it but on the coast of Maine! thank you for the inspiration!

  14. Amazing photos. Love how you used the natural sunlight to create your effects. This is why we don't overwhelm a venue with lighting during a daytime wedding.
