Chelsea & Frank's Westwood Vowery Wedding

Chelsea & Frank’s Westwood Vowery Wedding

There’s something special about a wedding day where everything happens in one beautiful place – and Westwood Vowery offers so many different spaces that the day never feels like it has just one look. Chelsea and Frank’s Westwood Vowery wedding took full advantage of the property, from getting ready and portraits throughout the iconic building to their ceremony and reception surrounded by family and friends.

First Look & Portraits

Chelsea and Frank shared their first look and private vows inside the Vowery before taking portraits throughout the property.

One of my favorite things about Westwood is just how many different photo opportunities you can find without ever leaving the building. Each room has its own personality, architecture, lighting, and backdrop, so your wedding gallery can have so much variety while still feeling cohesive. Reese Media did such a beautiful job taking advantage of all those different spaces and capturing the character of the venue.

The library is an especially beautiful spot for moody portraits, with a completely different vibe than the light-filled spaces throughout the rest of the building. It’s one of those venues where you could spend quite a bit of time simply exploring and finding new little corners for photos.

Westwood Vowery Ceremony

The couple exchanged vows in the Vowery, one of my favorite spaces on the property. Surrounded by windows and filled with natural light, the room feels bright, warm, and genuinely happy. It’s the perfect setting for a ceremony any time of the year. I especially love how the greenery outside becomes part of the backdrop without having to worry about the weather.

Reception

After Chelsea and Frank said “I do,” guests headed out to the terrace for cocktail hour. With plenty of comfortable seating, cocktail tables, and a statement fireplace (definitely not needed this time, but still a beautiful backdrop!), the terrace created such a welcoming space for guests to mingle and enjoy the evening.

The elegant aesthetic continued into the reception with black chairs, a statement black-and-white dance floor, and the timeless architecture of the ballroom tying everything together. The entire space felt classic and sophisticated, while still being warm and inviting.

Endless Summer Band was onsite for an evening of live music, and there’s just something about a live band that brings a completely different energy to a reception. Once the dance floor opened, the celebration was in full swing. It was the perfect ending to Chelsea and Frank’s beautiful Westwood Vowery wedding!
