MACKENZIE AND BRETT

THE WEDDING

May 31, 2026 | Pelican Hill Resort, Newport Beach, California

Surrounded by sweeping ocean views and timeless architecture, we’re so excited to celebrate our love at The Resort at Pelican Hill, a place that feels every bit as meaningful as it is breathtaking. Over the years, we’ve shared countless memories along this coastline, from summer afternoons to unforgettable nights, and it only feels right to begin our next chapter here.

Our ceremony will take place beneath the resort’s iconic Rotunda overlooking the Pacific, followed by an evening reception of dinner and dancing. We can’t wait to share this incredible day with our family and closest friends as we say “I do” in the very place where our story began — the city where we met, fell in love, and started our life together.

Join us for a relaxed evening of cocktails and conversation as we kick off the weekend in style. It’s the perfect chance to connect, unwind, and toast to the celebration ahead.

Wedding Ceremony & Reception — Sunday, May 31, 2026
