Two Couple Win Dream Weddings
07.16.20
Known for its yacht and bay backdrop weddings, Newport Beach’s Balboa Bay Resort has gifted two couples their dream weddings after their original plans were uprooted by the pandemic. To select the couples, the resort hosted a giveaway contest through Instagram and is now planning each ceremony.
Scheduled for July 23, Kelli and Anthony Patino will welcome up to 50 guests, including their daughter and twin boys, at the premier waterfront resort’s brand-new outdoor Wedding Lawn. The Chino Hills (California) couple met at a friend’s barbeque five years ago and organized a 140-person Las Vegas wedding in March but were forced to abandon their plans. After a year of anticipating their big day, they had lost it overnight along with a lot of money.
In addition to providing the wedding venue, accommodations, and catering, which amount to $10,000, Balboa Bay Resort partnered with local vendors to help execute their ideal ceremony, including:
The cocktail reception with passed hors d'oeuvres, hand-selected by the couple.
Wedding planning services, floral, and decor from Rebecca Calagna Events.
Full hair and make-up from Heather Kennedy at Dolled Up OC.
Photography from Jim Kennedy Photography.
