Perched along the cliffs of Southern California, Montage Laguna Beach is one of the most sought-after luxury wedding destinations in Orange County. With panoramic Pacific views, manicured lawns, and refined coastal architecture, it provides the perfect backdrop for high-end celebrations.

For a recent oceanfront wedding at Montage Laguna Beach, we were commissioned to design a bespoke macaron tower that would complement the couple’s modern coastal aesthetic while delivering a statement dessert moment.

A Custom Macaron Tower Designed for Montage Laguna Beach

The couple envisioned a clean, romantic palette inspired by the ocean and sunset tones. The macaron tower was created in soft ivory, blush, and champagne hues to mirror the floral installations throughout the reception space.

Design details included:

  • Handcrafted French macarons in custom wedding colors

  • Subtle edible gold accents

  • A tiered architectural structure for vertical presence

  • Fresh white florals integrated at the base

  • A minimalist acrylic topper with the couple’s initials

Because Montage Laguna Beach weddings often emphasize refined elegance rather than excessive ornamentation, the tower was designed to feel sculptural yet understated.

The Wedding Reception Reveal at Montage Laguna Beach

Following the ceremony overlooking the Pacific Ocean, guests transitioned into the grand ballroom. Candlelight flickered across the space while floor-to-ceiling windows reflected the coastline.

Rather than a traditional multi-tiered cake cutting, the couple chose a macaron tower reveal as their featured dessert moment.

The tower was rolled into the center of the ballroom under soft spotlighting. The couple shared the first macaron together before inviting guests to enjoy the display.

The result was:

  • A modern alternative to a classic wedding cake

  • A visually striking dessert installation

  • An elegant and guest-friendly presentation

  • A highly photographed focal point of the evening
