Exquisitely Classic Wedding at the Ebell in Long Beach

To put it simply....this couple is #goals.  I caught them all day long, gazing and smiling at each other, even when the other one wasn't looking.  They call each other baby.  They are absolutely STUNNING!  And their love shined through on the most beautiful wedding day at The Ebell in Long Beach! 

THE BRIDE

Perfection.  The pictures speak for themselves on this one.  Figlewicz Photographers did a fabulous job of capturing the day. 

THE FIRST LOOK

The Ebell truly is a beautiful venue.  The open space ceremony area, the chandeliers in the reception room, the vintage feel in the cocktail room, the elegant bridal suite....the list goes on.  This couple deciding to do their first look, ceremony, and reception all at the same place, gave them a chance to take advantage of all of the beauty this venue has to offer.  Not to mention the ease in the flow of the day with having everything in the same spot.  It made it out to be one of my favorite weddings to both coordinate and decorate. 

Now do you believe me about those looks!?!?!?  How adorable is Neil's first look reaction?!?!?!

THE CEREMONY

I am a sucker for family oriented ceremonies.  Her sister was her Maid of Honor, her brother was their Officiant, and their nieces and nephews were the ring bearers and flower girls.  They were such an amazing family to be around....and none of them shy to hop on the dance floor when the music started playing!

THE RECEPTION

As I mentioned before, this venue holds beauty in every corner.  Melissa stuck with a classic and elegant look.....white blooms, lemon leaf, gold accents, and candles. 

THE CAKE

Courtney's Creations did a beautiful job on the cake.  During my decade in this business....this was by far my favorite cake display!  When The Ebell offered for us to use their gold circle shelves as a decor piece....I immediately knew where I wanted it and how I wanted to decorate it.  So unique and perfect!
