Auspicious ceremony at Beaurivage Palace

The enchanting setting of the Beau-Rivage Palace in Lausanne won everyone over at this Sunday wedding. Yes, you read that right! It was on a Sunday that our two American lovebirds said “Yes!” in a secular ceremony. The union was then celebrated in the gardens of the luxurious Lausanne establishment, not far from the port of Ouchy.

After a couple session, the fabulous La Rotonde room, still at the Beau-Rivage Palace, took over for dinner. The guests shared a delicious meal before watching the newlyweds open the ball — then made the most of their trip to Switzerland to keep the party going themselves. Credit where it's due: California, well represented that evening, put up a very good fight on the dance floor!
