Set against DACOR Bacon House, Margarita and Antonio’s November wedding was the definition of intimate, intentional, and effortlessly beautiful. With the historic home as their backdrop and autumn in the air, their celebration felt both romantic and deeply personal—every detail thoughtfully chosen to reflect who they are as a couple.
Guests arrived to a garden-style ceremony nestled under a large tree that anchored the outdoor space and created a naturally breathtaking altar. An ornate glass welcome sign greeted loved ones as they entered, immediately setting the tone for the day. The couple’s signage—from the bar menu to the guest book—featured a rich, deep burgundy palette that perfectly complemented the glass accents and the warm hues of the season.
Before the ceremony began, Margarita and Antonio shared a quiet, private moment during their first look, where they exchanged their vows away from the crowd. Because of this, their ceremony was short and sweet—proof that brevity can still be incredibly meaningful.
Cocktail hour brought a shift in energy and a whole lot of fun. Thoughtfully planned games kept guests mingling, laughing, and fully engaged. From “Who Knows the Bride Best?” to playful prompts like “Who Does This Sound Like—the Bride or the Groom?”, the activities added a personal and interactive element that made the hour fly by. It was the perfect balance of connection and celebration.
Inside, the reception space was nothing short of stunning. Lush florals enhanced the character of the historic home rather than competing with it, allowing the venue’s charm to shine through. Guests couldn’t stop raving about the food, and the couple stole away for a private cake cutting—one of those quiet, joy-filled moments that often become a favorite memory of the day. After toasts and a delicious meal, everyone made their way back outside for the first dance and an evening of celebration.
Margarita and Antonio’s wedding was a beautiful reminder that when every detail is intentional, the result is a day that feels effortless, meaningful, and truly unforgettable.
