Perfect Casa Ybel Resort Wedding

I am so excited to be sharing the following wedding with you, I can hardly stand it! I am very proud of this wedding, as it is that of our very own restaurant manager, Casey Compton and his gorgeous new wife Kristen!!



Since they were able to plan a wedding during our slow season, I was able to offer full service coordination for this event, and I cannot tell you how much fun it was! Working with Casey, Kristen and their families was a dream, and really getting into all of the aspects of planning and design was amazing.

They also allowed us to utilize this wedding for our upcoming collaboration with Ray Roman Films, who has filmed an unbelievable wedding video for the resort, which I will be sharing with you all soon!!

A special thanks goes out to the super talented Maria Angela of Maria Angela photography for doing such an amazing job on the photography for this wedding, and for sharing these fabulous pictures with us!
(See bottom of blog post for a complete list of the FABULOUS vendors from this wedding!!)

The INCREDIBLE night club lounge area set in our Waterfront Room for after dinner. Soundwave did a magnificent job with the pipe and drape, lighting, effects, and custom lighted monogram on the dance floor. Totally transformed this room!!
DJ Ron Rutz did an phenominal job the entire day, and kept the crowd dancing late into the night!


Mini cookies and "milk shots" on the venetian table dessert spread for the after party

Gorgeous!


This was a perfect event from beginning to end, and I cannot express how much joy I took in being able to plan it for such a great couple! The incredible team of vendors did a job above and beyond what I was imagining, and I am thrilled with the results!!
