This stunning urban garden wedding at Vibiana in downtown Los Angeles embraced a chic, contemporary style with a cocktail lounge-inspired ceremony. Guests arrived to valet service at the historic Vibiana, then entered the vibrant outdoor courtyard for a cocktail hour surrounded by lush greenery, potted olive trees, and eclectic seating. They were welcomed with signature artisan cocktails and invited to select their escort cards from a green hedge. As the sun began to set, the ceremony took place in a breathtaking space defined by moss-lined paths, a green succulent wall, and lounge-style seating.
The celebration continued as guests moved into the main room, where square and rectangular tables, adorned with lush botanicals, glass vessels, and mirrored accents, created a warm, inviting atmosphere. The onyx bars and matching back bars, flanked by trees, set the tone for an elegant dinner service featuring a three-course meal and wine pairings. After dinner, the dance floor came alive with a performance by the Gen8 band, while a glowing pepper tree illuminated the room. The night ended with a relaxing lounge scene in the courtyard, complete with gourmet donuts, a whiskey bar, and a late-night food truck. The evening was filled with fun, elegance, and surprise performances by Richie Sambora and Orianthi, making it a night to remember.
