Los Angeles Athletic Club Wedding ~ Casey and Estrella

Monday, January 13th, 2014

As an LA native, I am in love with anything and everything vintage Los Angeles. I try and be very careful not to overuse the term “vintage” unless it’s truly appropriate-but in this case, it’s perfect. Estrella and Casey were engaged in a very Hollywood way-on the national talkshow “The Talk.” Along with 49 other potential grooms, on television, Casey got down on one knee and asked Estrella to marry him.

They wanted to carry that love of Los Angeles, and Casey’s proud Irish heritage, into their wedding-and they did so beautifully.

Their reception (and first look) was at the Los Angeles Athletic Club, a glamorous, vintage Los Angeles landmark, built in 1880. Casey wore a tux with tails, and Estrella wore a dress that seemed to be made just for her, from Winnie Couture, with the help of Modern LA Weddings, they were able to incorporate that old Hollywood feel with Casey’s Irish family history. They were married at one of the oldest churches in Los Angeles, St. Brendan’s in Hancock Park. They had a 1957 Rolls Royce convertible take them to their reception-driving with the top down through the streets of Los Angeles. During the cocktail hour they had an Irish band, and throughout the reception, used the colors of Ireland, including the tri-color flag, with bells of Ireland flowers as accents; and Casey’s family crest for a personal touch.
