Estate WEDDING in beverly hills

Event planner Michele Gott with Center of Attention Events transformed the lower lawn at the Houdini Estate into a magical outdoor dining room with long wood tables topped with succulents, and clusters of free-hanging Edison bulbs for warm, intimate lighting. Chef Cordelia worked with Bride and groom Baliey and Xavier to create a menu with classics like Filet Mignon enlivened with flavors of the couple's Asian and Latina heritage, then switched into playful mode, serving up late night nachos and cotton candy inside the mansion, as dancing continued into the night.
