On its own, the Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla is a pretty amazing place. But take that amazing place and fill it with gorgeous Gatsby-esque details, fabulous love quotes and sparkly blue everything and it transforms into a wedding paradise styled to perfection by Francine Ribeau Events. Carmen Santorelli captured every gorgeous moment, so you know this is one gallery you can’t live without.
From the Bride… From the sparkly blue tablecloths to gorgeous white flowers to the picturesque view of La Jolla cove, my wedding was nothing short of breathtaking. My dream wedding would not have come true if it hadn’t been for my wedding planner, Francine. In my initial conversation with Francine, I mentioned to her that I wanted my wedding to be chic, fabulous, and full of sparkle – she definitely did not disappoint.
The attention to detail in all aspects of by big day made my wedding truly spectacular. I know a lot of brides must say that their weddings were perfect, but I definitely believe mine was. All of my vendors brought custom elements that I never even imagined was possible and made my vision come to life. For example, my cake was hand-painted, custom blue and gold boards with famous love quotes decorated the venue and my flowers were adorned with gold sparkly accents. Francine and her team of experts were able to tell our story in the most elegant way possible, and I could not be more thankful. It truly was a memorable day and one of the best moments of my life.
