Moody Glamour on the American Riviera
J + J
Jordan and Jordyn’s wedding weekend began with an intimate family dinner at Tre Lune in Montecito, followed by a cheeky, joy-filled rehearsal dinner at Santa Barbara’s Azul Cocina — a perfect prelude to the boldly stylish celebration to come.
The wedding at the Rosewood Miramar Beach was an unapologetically fashion-forward experience that blended moody glamour, playful pattern, and coastal California luxury. Set against Montecito’s iconic shoreline and framed by the Santa Ynez Mountains, the weekend welcomed 200 guests into a world designed to feel immersive, indulgent, and utterly alive.
The festivities opened on the Miramar’s Event Lawn, where a lush, floral-filled chuppah created a dramatic and intimate ceremony setting. Guests then flowed onto the Great Lawn for sunset cocktails, curated lounges, and an abundant raw bar that set the tone for the evening ahead. Inside the ballroom, the atmosphere deepened into a sultry, jewel-toned dreamscape. Golden velvet drapery wrapped the room in warmth as a massive disco ball (paired with suspended florals and soft fabric draping), hovered above a black-and-white patterned dance floor (a nod to the envelope liner from the Invitations). A mix of five table designs framed the space, complemented by lounge vignettes and multiple styled bars that invited guests to explore.
Each tablescape was styled with intention and character: a blend of chairs and banquettes, sculptural florals in moody reds and plums, flickering candlelight, edible layers, patterned china, luxe flatware, animal-print accents, and richly textured details. It was a maximalist dream - bold, layered, and deeply personal. The dance floor (and the martinis) were never empty. J + J’s celebration was stylish, spirited, intimately curated, and wildly fun...the kind of night guests never wanted to leave.
The next morning, everyone reunited for hugs, laughs, breakfast-inspired pizzas, and mimosas at the iconic Bettina in Montecito. A perfect, delicious ending to a weekend no one will soon forget.
