Westgate Hotel Wedding Inspired by Netflix’s The Crown

If you’re one for historical charm and elegance, you’ll be head over heels for Netflix’s The Crown, based on the story of Queen Elizabeth coming into her reign of England. This Westgate Hotel wedding inspiration in San Diego will forever live in my dreams as the most regal beauty ever.

The palette I curated for this shoot included golds, rose golds, greens, and creams. With just enough distinguished infusions of color to suit a wedding during any season, the predominantly neutral palette carries a level of refinement that pays homage to past royal weddings.

A cupcake and macaron graced a rose gold plate for each setting.

The shape of Diana’s cascading white and green bouquet inspired the bridal bouquet she created for our bride who donned a gorgeous YSA Makino gown that was truly out of this world.

Gold detailing, inspired by one of Elizabeth’s crowns, framed the beautiful elements of emerald within the cake. What brides would love about this cake is that is simple, yet exquisite.
