UNVEILED

Inspiration For The Nearly Wed

Just The Two Of Us

“I’ve always admired the bravery it takes to share one of the most private and powerful moments of your life with all your guests,” says Kaci Mallat, wedding planner and owner of XOXO Weddings, who spends every week creating magic-filled weddings for her clients. Thus, when it came time for her to tie the knot, she and her fiancé, Bryan Johnson, shared the same vision: a moment for just the two of them. Kaci and Bryan chose an intimate elopement at Malibu’s Cielo Farms, with its sweeping views of the Santa Monica Mountains. While a light rain fell, their trusted team of vendors created an unforgettable experience. “I still had the dress, the bouquet, the ceremony and a wonderful photographer,” reminisces Kaci. “But we got to do it exactly the way we wanted. And I got to focus all my attention on my now husband.”
