Bridgerton-Inspired Ritz Carlton Marina del Rey Celebration

The Plan

Melanie worked closely with Colleen and Jonathan to bring their vision of a traditional Jewish wedding to life, welcoming 250 guests for a heartfelt and stylish celebration. Colleen was a dream collaborator—full of creative ideas that added meaningful, personalized touches throughout the day.

From custom photo booth props and signature drink garnishes to thoughtful his-and-hers wedding favors, every detail reflected the couple’s personality and love story. The day unfolded seamlessly, with guest experiences thoughtfully curated at every turn.

Set against the stunning waterfront backdrop of The Ritz-Carlton, Marina del Rey, the ceremony glowed in golden hour light as it reflected off the harbor. Guests enjoyed a luxurious cocktail hour featuring elevated food stations curated by Chef Adir, owner of Salamtak Catering, known for his exquisite Mediterranean flavors.

As night fell, the celebration came alive with the incredible energy of Eli’s band, who kept the dance floor packed all evening. It was a magical night of tradition, joy, and unforgettable moments.
