Blush tones with gold accents are a timelessly romantic pairing that complemented the ornate ballroom of the Rosewood Hotel Georgia’s 5-star property in Vancouver.

Monica looked ethereal in her timeless A-line gown by Pronovias that featured a stunning Chantilly lace bodice. During dinner, she changed into a couture dress by Stesha Ho that had the most darling frill sleeves and snuck out with Victor for sunset photos.

Guests were treated to a 4-course dinner starting with a smoked cauliflower soup followed by a salmon aburi served on crispy rice. For mains, guests chose between an Alberta angus beef striploin or a delectable miso-marinated sablefish. To finish, dessert was a green tea, passion fruit-infused mousse that was light and airy — the perfect end to a delicious dining experience!

Even though their reception was held at a hotel, both wanted to stray away from traditional banquet rounds and create an elegant environment for their guests instead. Long tables and tapered candles were key to creating a cosy and intimate ambience for their plated 4-course dinner. Each place-setting featured an escort card with the guest name calligraphed in walnut ink, set next to a delectable Ladurée macaron box. Monica and Victor dined at a rectangular head table that was level with the guest tables but overgrown with lush florals.
