The couple exchanged vows in a gorgeous chapel, followed by an elegant outdoor reception at Stonepine Estate. Their celebration showcased the luxury and charm of a Tuscany-inspired wedding without leaving California.

A Chapel Wedding in California

The ceremony took place at the historic Carmel Mission Basilica, where Karla looked absolutely stunning in a strapless white gown. Her long, sheer gloves detailed with large pearly beads added a touch of vintage elegance to her bridal look. Christopher complemented her perfectly in a modern black tuxedo and sleek shoes but made sure to change into his Nikes before the evening’s dancing began! The bridesmaids, styled in various styles of black dresses added to the modern, classic aesthetic of the wedding, holding bouquets of big white blooms with long stems that matched the bride’s.

Reception at Chateau Noel's Loggia Lawns

Following the heartfelt ceremony, guests moved to the Loggia Lawns of Chateau Noel for a picturesque outdoor reception. The design was stunning with countryside chic touches, featuring wooden chairs with white cushions and tables adorned with sprays of green and white floral arrangements. Gold accents throughout the tablescapes added a bit of old-world elegance. As the evening progressed, countless candles were lit, casting a warm glow over the scene, while bistro lights strung overhead enhanced the magical ambiance.

Dancing Among Monterey County’s Rolling Hills and Stone Pines
