Ceremony Magazine held its annual celebration at Serra Plaza in San Juan Capistrano on Tuesday, October 4th. The theme for the evening was ‘Sunset in Sevilla.’ Sheryal Rozzelle of Unique Elegance and Mary Lallande of Serra Plaza organized an affair to remember. Held within the romantic confines of a Spanish-inspired courtyard, hues of deep crimson, brilliant orange and pops of pink and teal saturated the décor from the mood-shaping uplighting to the elegant floral design. A sensuous vibe was created by a flamenco guitarist and his chanteuse who accompanied the rhythmic beauty of a flamenco dancer. Positive energy pulsated throughout the venue from the ballroom where the DJ and his percussive gang jammed along to the hot beats. Of course, no party would be complete without savory bites, luscious libations and sweet treats! Spanish inspired tapas, signature cocktails, cake, chocolate favors and a candy buffet ensured that guests left with a smile on their faces.
The Ceremony family is grateful to the amazing wedding professionals who outdid themselves with their creative talents. Thank you to the following sponsors who left an indelible impression on all who attended this fabulous event.
