The Ultimate COVID Wedding: Shane and Katie’s Safe and Stunning Celebration

Malibu Solstice is the quintessential Malibu Wedding setting, with 360-degree views of the Pacific Ocean and Santa Monica Mountains. There may have only been a handful of guests at the venue, but Shane and Katie brought the family from all over the world to enjoy the wedding through Zoom. In fact, they even had their officiant perform the Wedding over Zoom and stream in on a 50-inch TV.

From Zoom to Sunset: Inside Shane and Katie’s COVID Wedding

Following their flawless Wedding Ceremony, guests enjoyed Cocktails and the perfect sunset. The highlight of the evening was the chance for the newlyweds to greet their online guests with our signature Zoom wedding Speed Greeting feature.

Then to cap off their virtual wedding the couple performed their First Dance as people joined in from their living room. After the virtual guests signed off to get back to their day (or in some time zones go straight to bed) Katie and Shane shared an intimate dinner with their in-person guests, beautifully catered with individually plated meals by Spotted Hen. This wedding was a total group effort but was expertly brought together by Allie at Pop The Champagne and The Backyard Wedding Collective, who is quickly becoming the go-to option for Elopements and Micro Weddings in Southern California.

Shane and Katie’s wedding proved that even in challenging times, love finds a way. Their innovative approach to incorporating technology ensured that family and friends, near and far, could share in their joy. The picturesque setting of Malibu Solstice, combined with meticulous planning and a touch of creativity, made their wedding a standout celebration. As we continue to navigate through the pandemic, their wedding serves as an inspiring example of how to celebrate love safely and meaningfully. Congratulations to Shane and Katie on their beautiful COVID wedding!
