Timeless Elegance – Black & White Wedding Celebration

By Liz Barbato

Ashley and Bernie were married with an intimate ceremony in the romantic city of Venice, Italy. Surrounded by the enchanting beauty of the Aman hotel, they exchanged vows in a setting that was as timeless as their love.

Upon their return home, Ashley and Bernie were eager to share their joy with their friends and family in a grand celebration that would capture the essence of old Hollywood glamour. Their vision? A black and white wedding that exuded sophistication and elegance, promising a night to remember for all who attended.

The black and white theme evoked images of old Hollywood, embodying a sense of classic sophistication and the personal style of this couple. It was a choice that reflected Ashley and Bernie’s love and their desire to create a celebration that would never go out of style.
