Lindsey and Carlos celebrated their special day on March 25, 2023, with a stunning wedding at the picturesque Mountain Meadows Golf Course. With around one hundred of their closest family and friends in attendance, their celebration was filled with elegance, heartfelt moments, and joyful laughter.
Love Story
Lindsey and Carlos' journey began in the summer of 2010 at South Hills High School. After months of online conversations, Carlos asked Lindsey to the Sadie Hawkins Dance, marking the start of their enduring relationship. Over 13 years, they navigated life's highs and lows, growing stronger together. Carlos proposed to Lindsey at the Griffith Observatory on November 20, 2022, bringing their relationship full circle to the place where he first asked her to be his girlfriend.
Ceremony
The ceremony setup was at the beautiful Mountain Meadows Golf Course. The venue's lush greenery and scenic views provided the perfect backdrop for their black and white themed wedding, accented with pops of blue and purple in the floral arrangements and subtle touches of dusty rose and ivory.
Lindsey looked stunning in a modern dress featuring a short design with a sparkly sheer long overlay and a one-shoulder detail. Carlos looked very classy in a black tuxedo with a black bow tie. The bridesmaids wore elegant silk champagne dresses, while the groomsmen complemented the groom in black tuxedos.
A fun moment was during the end of the ceremony when guests were given petals to toss during the recessional, creating a magical moment as Lindsey and Carlos walked back down the aisle as newlyweds.
Reception
The celebration continued at The Mountain Meadows Golf Course as the guests moved into the reception they were greeted with a beautiful set up. The reception tables were adorned with white tablecloths and black napkins, creating a chic contrast. The floral centerpieces featured blue and purple blooms with accents of dusty rose and ivory, adding a touch of color to the sophisticated black and white theme.
A unique feature of this tablescape was the names of the tables Lindsey and Carlos chose as names for their guests to find their seats. The tables are named after movies that are special to the couple.
The heartfelt speeches from Lindsey’s sister, who was the maid of honor, and Carlos’ brother, the best man, added a personal touch to the celebration.
A highlight of the evening was the lively soul train line, where guests took turns showcasing their dance moves.
The night also featured a memorable game of musical chairs that ended in laughter when one of the guests broke a chair.
