Gatsby Themed Wedding in Los Angeles
Wedding at Vertigo Event Venue
Orlando & Marina
A Message From The Bride & Groom
Describe your experience with wedding planning: Planning a wedding comes with all types of emotions.
When you are planning your wedding, you are not only super excited and happy but you can also feel anxious and stressed. But it is important to remember, why you are getting married in the first place!
The best part of it all is, the moment you see your future husband/wife on the day of your wedding, everything feels just right!
Describe your experience with finding your wedding gown: It’s really true when people say you know it’s the one!
When it came time to find the gown of my dreams, I probably tried on over 20 gowns until I found the one I would wear to marry the love of my life.
Once I put on my final pick, I knew that’s the dress I’ll walk down the aisle in! It was everything I dreamed it would be, and more.
When we had our first look, my heart was beating so fast, I was so excited to see Orlando! The entire moment was perfectly magical in every way.
How did you meet?: We met at my work place, fell in love, and the rest was history!
Describe the moment he proposed: Every time I remember that day my heart fills with joy & happiness. The most overwhelming, exciting day for both me and my now husband!
We did our first look at a penthouse in Downtown Los Angeles, and the modern feels really matched the theme of our wedding. The LA skyline was so beautiful!
Our ceremony took place in the downtown area of Los Angeles as well, at St Sophia Cathedral. We knew from the beginning we were going to get married there, it was one of the first things we booked.
Walking down the aisle, starring start into the eyes of the one you are about to marry, is such a surreal feeling.
What are your favorite moments of your wedding day?: I have so many favorite moments from our wedding day, it is so hard to just choose one!
We wanted our reception design to be modern yet very chic at the same time. That is how we came up with the Gatsby theme. We used lots of gold detailing with white and black colors mostly. We were going for a New York style feel!
Our wedding reception was held at Vertigo Event Venue in Los Angeles. It was the ultimate venue for us to celebrate our best day, and it fit with our Gatsby theme so well! With the help of our wedding planner Modern LA Weddings and floral designer Petals LA, everything came out exactly as we had dreamed it would.
If I had to choose a few of my favorite moments on my wedding day, the first would probably be, our grand entrance and seeing all the happy faces of our family/friends!
My next favorite moment would have to be our first dance. It truly felt like there was nobody in that room besides the two of us. It felt incredible to look into each others eyes and say “we did it”!
Last but not least, my father & daughter dance was beyond emotional. It was probably one of the most important moments in my entire life, to be dancing with my dad one last time before I start my life officially with the love of my life.
Everything came together so beautifully, and I could not imagine a more perfect day. We had our dream wedding, and we were ready to embark on an incredible journey together as husband and wife!
