This Bride and Groom Said “I Do!” at one of LA’s hottest new venues: The Smog Shoppe. It’s a perfect vintage wedding venue with a uniquely California vibe. Not only is it a top spot for LA nuptials, it’s also one of the most sustainably designed urban spaces in Los Angeles and in the US.
After the ceremony guests enjoyed fabulous tray passed hors-d'oeuvres such as Maple Glazed Salmon on Asparagus Skewers and Shitake Crusted Filet of Beef on Bamboo with Roasted Red Pepper Dip (see the complete menu & photos below). For the main event, the couple chose a homey and hearty family style menu. With the family style meal, guests shared a variety of dishes served on platters in the middle of the table. What a perfect way to have a relaxed time, sharing good food, wine and laughter!
