Ritz Carlton Laguna Niguel - Michelle & Johnny

Michelle and Johnny’s wedding was the perfect blend of bohemian elegance and coastal romance. With neutral hues, organic textures, and florals in deep corals, ivory, and blush, every detail came together beautifully against the stunning Dana Point coastline backdrop a the Ritz Carlton Laguna Niguel.

The Ceremony

Set on the picturesque cliffs overlooking the Pacific, their ceremony felt intimate and ethereal. Guests were greeted by the sound of ocean waves and soft acoustic music as Michelle made her way down the aisle. The altar was adorned with natural pottery vessels, pampas grass, and textured florals — all in warm, sun-kissed tones that perfectly complemented the coastal view. Light wood chairs and pampas grass florals down the aisle eclipsed the ceremony design.

Cocktail Hour on the Bluffs

Following the ceremony, guests enjoyed cocktail hour on the bluff, soaking in panoramic ocean views. The space was styled with cozy lounge furniture, metallic linens, and soft neutral tones that created a relaxed yet refined ambiance. Signature cocktails and small bites were served as the sun began to set, casting a golden glow over the coastline.

The Reception

As the evening transitioned indoors, the ballroom was transformed into a bohemian dreamscape. Hanging wicker chandeliers, warm candlelight, and earthy elements brought the design to life. The neutral palette was elevated with black accents that added a modern, moody edge — the perfect contrast to the softness of the florals and natural textures.

Every detail, from the handcrafted pottery vases to the layered linens and chic table décor, told a story of effortless sophistication. Guests dined, danced, and celebrated late into the evening — a truly magical day that reflected Michelle and Johnny’s love, style, and spirit.
