Dear friends and family were invited to participate in the Catholic ceremony, which was filled with love, family and commitment. Bonnie and Houston exited the church to a flurry of rose petals and doves flying overhead. The couple boarded a beautiful horse-drawn carriage that drove them, with a police escort, to The Beverly Hills Hotel for the reception. En route, the newlyweds sipped champagne and savored those precious few moments of time alone as husband and wife.
At the same time, the wedding attendants toured around Beverly Hills in the Beverly Hills trolleys and drank champagne and apple juice for the underage!

As a surprise for Bonnie, her mother and the florist draped the entire staircase with stunning pink and white roses, some in heartshaped clusters, and greenery that cascaded down the hand rail, something that Bonnie had wished for but did not know was being planned.

The vibrant colors permeated every table, with centerpieces that included Hawaiian dendrobium orchids, vendella roses, ivory hydrangea, pink peek-a-boo roses and other roses in ivory, blush and seafoam green.
