Caroline and Matthew’s rehearsal dinner in California was a charming celebration the night before their wedding day, set in a location just 2 blocks away from the church where their ceremony would be held. The venue was across the street from a theater where their names were lit up in big letters. “Our names and wedding date were lit up on the marquee!” Caroline added, reminiscing on the special touch that added to the evening’s ambiance.
Caroline’s eye for style was reflected in her attire for the evening. “My rehearsal dinner dress and wedding dress are from Monique Lhuillier flagship boutique on Melrose Place in California,” she revealed.
The theme for the rehearsal dinner was inspired by the beauty of an outdoor courtyard garden. “The courtyard had growing vines and budding flowers,” Caroline described, emphasizing how this setting would seamlessly transition into the following day’s celebration. “It worked perfectly with the beautiful garden the next night at San Ysidro Ranch,” she said, hinting at the continuity in theme of her wedding weekend.
The dinner itself was a heartfelt gathering. “During dinner, seeing everyone all together that means the most to us to kick off the weekend,” Caroline shared.
