Hi, I'm ashley.

Gillian + Clark’s wedding at Shelldance Orchid in Pacifica, California, was a vibrant and intimate celebration that perfectly reflected their personalities. The coastal greenhouse venue, with its lush greenery and tropical plants, provided a magical setting for their special day. The ceremony took place outdoors, overlooking the ocean, offering stunning views of the coast, while the reception and cocktail hour were held inside the greenhouse.

The wedding was colorful, funky, and filled with delicious food and festive drinks. Gillian and Clark had their first look at Moon Raker Beach in Pacifica, capturing beautiful photos against the coastal backdrop. The florals were stunning, featuring tropical and vibrant flowers that added a burst of color to the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception spaces.

The attention to detail in the decor was evident, with hanging plants, colorful flowers, and unique table settings creating a magical and intimate atmosphere inside the greenhouse. The menu for the feast was creatively designed, and the signature cocktails, each adorned with a vibrant flower, added a unique touch to the celebration.

Gillian and Clark’s wedding was not only a beautiful event but also a reflection of their love and creativity. The intimate gathering of their closest friends and family, the stunning venue, and the vibrant decor made their special day truly memorable. From the ceremony overlooking the ocean to the after-party at Moon Raker Restaurant, Gillian and Clark’s wedding was a celebration of love, creativity, and joy.
