When you’re from LA, and have this much style – this is how you tie the knot. Rachel Laurent and Phil were married on a gorgeous sunny day in October at Cielo Farms in Malibu after being together for 6 years and getting engaged in San Miguel, Mexico last December. Rachel said that this was the wedding of their dreams thanks to their amazing team of vendors! “It was warm, welcoming, loving and fun.” This happy and impossibly cool couple lives in Los Angeles with their dog Kovu.

“My bridesmaids are all stunning so I knew they could do no wrong. Beyond the gorgeous dress styles and colors, what drew me to Dessy Group is the fact that it’s founded in New York City, a city near and dear to my heart after living there for 10 years. My bridesmaids all looked incredible in various styles of Dessy dresses in Dusty Rose. The color was a perfect match for our color palette, the setting and our floral arrangements.”
