Lauren & Zach - Hotel Bel Air Wedding


The Hidden Garden team were thrilled to design a wedding with Lauren & Zach Axlerod, who were married on Saturday, October 6th at the breathtaking Hotel Bel Air in Los Angeles.

This location is one of my favorite wedding sites as it is adorned with lush floral landscape already and our decor is the icing on the cake. Lauren and Zach were such a pleasure to work with too. They are an amazing couple. I was honored to collaborate with Tracy & Jonathan (International Event Company) on the design of this lovely affair.

The Ceremony took place at Swan Lake (after many conversations with mother nature begging her to hold back on the rain!). We created a romantic setting using the soft white, ivory and lavender tones incorporting the use of hydrangea, tibet roses, polo roses, antiqued lavender amnesia roses, dahlias, curly willow, smilax and ivy. After the ceremony the guest wander through the grotto leading them to the upper lawn for cocktails under the canopy (just in case it rained!). We brought in the deeper purple and lavender pallette setting the tone for the dinner reception to follow. The Ballroom was adorned with tall gold candelabras designed with abundant arrangements consisting of burgundy dahlias, amnesia lavender roses, red amaranthus, camelia leaves, purple lisianthus and antiqued lavender hydrangea. Romantic candle light, floral napkin treatments, specialty linens and smaller floral accents helped tie the room decor together.
