Liv Perez Wore Elie Saab to Marry Alex Nachum in an Oasis of Wildflowers at Soho Farmhouse

Kikis also worked with Alex on his looks. He wanted to bring a British designer into the mix and landed on a Thom Sweeney suit for Friday night. For the wedding, he wore a Ralph Lauren Purple Label black tuxedo and changed into a classic Ralph Lauren white tuxedo for the reception. “It was a really collaborative experience, where we were sending each other looks weekly until we found those moments that felt so true to us,” Liv says.

The same considered approach was taken when deciding on the location for the actual ceremony. “When Alex, my mom, and I visited Soho Farmhouse last year in August to start planning the wedding, we biked past an incredible meadow one morning on the far end of the property,” Liv remembers. “It was completely overgrown, and you could barely walk through it, but it had a sweeping view of the entire farm alongside a running river.”

The team loved the idea of hosting the ceremony there and, the next morning, planted seeds that they hoped would bloom over the next year. “When we got to Soho Farmhouse a few days before our wedding, it was everything we dreamed of and more,” Liv says. “The wildflowers had bloomed and were so tall, and our wedding planner mowed a curved aisle through it that led straight to our ceremony, right in the middle of an oasis.”

A string quartet played for arriving guests, and signature cocktails were served before the bride and groom were married under a chuppah filled with florals from around the property. “We felt so calm,” Liv recalls. “It was all so meant to be. We asked our guests to not have their phones with them, and it was the most amazing feeling to look out at our circle and see their beautiful faces.”

The bride walked down to Lana del Rey’s “Margaret,” while Alex made his entrance to Daft Punk’s “Something About Us.” “We had so much fun making the ceremony feel like us and really telling the story of our families coming together,” Liv says. Each of their seven siblings wrote a custom blessing with a different theme for the couple that was read during the ceremony. “It made it feel so intimate and unique,” Liv says. “We loved getting to include our entire family in this very special moment.”

After the ceremony, the newlyweds went back to their farmhouse to spend a few moments alone together. Their families and friends then joined them to sign the ketubah, and then they went into a tent in the center of a field to have dinner and dance the night away.

The couple did their first dance to Bonnie Raitt’s “Thank You.” Soon after, espresso martinis were served and the party got started. “We got up on stage to dance with the band and had way too much fun,” Liv remembers. “We ended the night in the pub on the property, where our friend Pedro Cavaliere DJ’ed and we danced until the sun came up.”
