Malibu Beach Wedding Inspiration
Ladies and gents, prepare yourselves for a stop-you-in-your-tracks kind of styled shoot, sent over to us by designer extraordinaire Beth Helmstetter. Produced by Be Inspired PR, photographed by Braedon Flynn, and flowers by Dolce Designs Studio for Destination I Do Magazine, this shoot is hands-down guaranteed to brighten up your day and get you dreaming for some sandy time in the sun!
From the event designer, Beth Helmstetter: The shoot was full of fun details, like colorful Adirondack chairs for the ceremony, vibrant pillows for dinner seating, and was inspired by a colorful, cozy beach wedding in Malibu.
The menu included grilled watermelon cubes topped with hamachi sashimi, cilantro Creme Fraiche and wasabi cotton candy, shoestring fries with Cajun remoulade, mini all-beef hot dogs with a sesame seed bun, caramelized shallots and 50-50 sauce, beach style chargrilled swordfish with fresh apricot and fennel salsa, butternut squash slaw, peach Bellini snow cone shooter, and citrus vodka and pink lemonade snow cone shooter. The welcome basket was stuffed with OneHope wine and champagne, chocolate covered pretzels, Chupa Chups Suckers, and seasalt shortbread cookies.

Thanks for sharing our shoot!! We love this one! :]
Thank you so much for including us!
Love the fun, bright colors! It’s refreshing to see something different than the typical muted beach palette.
What a colourful wedding, I love how they’ve mixed contrasting colours to create an environment which feels as happy as the couple look. There’s been so much attention to detail in this wedding, even the food is colourful and sits well with the overall theme. Love it.
I LOVE everything about this shoot. All a beautiful location like this needs is a bit of colour and life, which has been done perfectly here! Well done to everyone involved!!!! 🙂
Pitbulls and Posies, you get me every time! I knew you did the paper before I even saw your name! Love this shoot everyone! Everything fits together so well and I am in love with all these bright colors! Everything is so relaxed but fun and romantic at the same time! Great work!
This is so simple & sweet, love the accents.
