A Whimsical Celebration Of Love — And Dancing

Kim and Jon’s day made quite an impression at the villa – right from the dramatic entrance in a very snazzy gold car. Kim looked stunning in her whimsical gown with tulle and some truly gorgeous beadwork and we loved seeing Jon looking so handsome in his blue suit. The reception was a lovely (and love-filled) affair, with some really special moments as the officiant explained how marriage makes you a part of something so much bigger than yourself — and of course, the harpist and sand-pouring ceremony were truly beautiful touches.

We love all of our receptions here at the villa — but Kim and Jon certainly know how to move! Seeing their first dance to “Perfect” was such a treat, especially because they had some amazing choreography. We learned later that learning the dance had been some of their favorite movements of the planning, which was such a sweet insight into the couple — as was watching them play the shoe game to work out who knew each other better! The whole reception felt magical, with touches of navy blue and silver paired with pink roses, but it was really the speeches that made our night. From hearing the father of the bride talk about how this love made Kim a better person, to finding out that Jon gushes about Kim the way a 12-year-old girl talks about Zac Efron (sorry, Jon!), the speeches were filled with gorgeous moments.

We were so happy Kim and Jon spend their day with us, before jetting off to Disneyland and the Caribbean — and we hope to see them again soon!
