t the start of a two-month work stint in London, Malibu native Jordan Foster, who works in fashion marketing, met Cheshire-born music and entertainment executive Tom Woodger at an office party (they worked in the same building). “Less than one week later, we were in love,” recalls the ebullient bride. When Jordan’s visa expired and she returned to the States, Tom realized he couldn’t lose her. On their oneyear anniversary, at her family home in Malibu, Tom held up a sparkler designed by the bride’s friend Hilary Tisch, which prompted an immediate, “Yes!” The N.Y.-based couple worked with JOWY Productions to secure a private estate in Bel Air to host 200 guests for the black-tie affair. Her father, famed music producer David Foster, coordinated the entertainment throughout the evening with performances from Eric Benét, Nita Whitaker and Seal—even jumping behind the piano himself. Family plays a big role for the couple. “I was worried about having a head table that had space for everyone,” Jordan says of her growing clan, “Thankfully, we managed to find a setting that sat all 36 of us.” • VENUE Private estate, Bel Air CAKE The Butter End CATERING Serves You Right DRESS Monique Lhuillier TUX Flannels FLOWERS Eric Buterbaugh RENTALS Classic Party Rentals, Green Set RINGS Jennifer Meyer band, Hilary Tisch designed, E.Eichberg made engagement ring ENTERTAINMENT
