Alila Marea weddings: a black and white affair

Updated: Apr 10

If you are searching for a modern, luxurious oceanfront venue, Alila Marea in Encinitas is the best. Alila Marea weddings are just one of a kind, throughout the gallery you will see how the style of this venue is unique in the San Diego area. The colors of the venue are neutral cream, beige, and taupe which makes it easy to pair with many different wedding styles and palettes. Here are some photos of two weddings I have done at Alila Marea. Both are black and white themed, one is more classic - modern, the other is contemporary- modern.

Hannah & Devin opted for a rectangular arch with white flowers, roses, ranunculus, hydrangea created a beautiful background for this hot summer day!

Katie & Bert told me they loved the oceanview Alila Marea offers and they wanted their wedding to be contemporary without being to busy. We used clear ghost chairs and white flowers on clear pedestals. As you can see the flowers here are more organic shaped and incude some anemones which gives that hint of black color we wanted to incorporate.

Katie & Bert opted for a private pic nic while cocktail hour started for their Alila Marea wedding. I think this was a beautiful idea to give them some privacy and time alone before the party!

Both couples opted for clear ghost chairs which complement the Alila Marea wedding ballroom perfectly. Katie & Bert chose a black-rimmed charger plate and a black napkin while Hannah & Devin kept it neutral with a white napkin and tablecloth.
