Samantha Anderson and Andrew Vorhees chose the Millennium Biltmore for a wedding built around historic Los Angeles architecture and classic black tie style.

Ornate ceilings, chandeliers, textured walls, and deep window light gave the day a formal visual language while the candid moments kept it personal.

A Classic Hotel Wedding Morning

Samantha prepared in a bright suite with her family and wedding party while Andrew dressed against the hotel's darker architectural details.

Portraits in Historic Interiors

The Biltmore's stone walls, tall windows, and layered rooms gave Samantha and Andrew multiple settings for editorial portraits without leaving the hotel.
