Fantasy Garden Engagement Ceremony at Sea

Anushea and Rashed celebrated their engagement in glamorous style, with a fantasy garden engagement ceremony on board a yacht! Guests boarded at FantaSea Yachts in Marina del Ray to be a part of this beautiful step in their love story with a colorful yacht party in stunning style! Southern California event planners Best Bride and couture florist Celio’s Design created a dream engagement for their ceremony at sea!

Guests were invited with an invitation by Thistle Cards that echoed a luxury liner ticket! The Titanic-worthy burgundy and gold palette extended the invitation to ‘sail away on a dream voyage’ for the formal engagement ceremony.

Couture florist Celio’s Design transformed the deck of FantaSea Yachts into a fantasy garden for Anushea and Rashed’s formal engagement ceremony! The flower arches combined vibrant pink and purple with pastel blush and peach to create a colorful and romantic backdrop that still allowed the beautiful coastal scenery to take part in the magical event design.

Romantic pastels were the cornerstone of this beautiful color palette, from the bride’s bouquet in shades of purple to the romantic flowers that lined the aisle.

Guests were treated to a sunset cruise and a beautiful reception on board the yacht, with luxe gold and purple details that echoed the magical flowers above deck.

Gorgeous drip cakes were the centerpieces of a delicious spread of fruit, cheese, and bite sized appetizers! The white semi-naked cakes were touched up with gold dusted meringues, glazed fruit, and fresh flowers!

Dip’d N Drip’d created a dessert display that is nothing short of a sweet lover’s dream! The purple theme carried in to lavender chocolate dipped Madeleines, pretzels, and strawberries that were arranged in a tower! Gold chocolate butterflies and diamond rings, along with a sprinkling of edible gold glitter, gave everything the perfect finishing touch!

Sunset engagement photos just look that much better on a yacht surrounded by magical flowers!

After disembarking, the couple finished off their portrait session in classic Southern California style – surrounded by colorful bougainvillea for that perfect pop of pink!
