The Aliluvs.com blogger enjoyed a pre-wedding glass of bubbly with her bridesmaids, her sister Raya Kirby (left) and her best friend Stefanie Muñoz. All three spent the morning in robes by Pretty Plum Sugar.
For the outdoor ceremony, Fedotowsky chose a strapless, Spanish lace number by Alvina Valenta which she purchased from JLM Couture. She paired the gown with a hair piece and jewelry from Maria Elena.
"I didn't want them to match," the Massachusetts native tells Us of the Jenny Yoo dresses worn by sister Raya Kirby (left) and pal Stefanie Muñoz.
Precious and Blooming created a loose bouquet of garden roses and ranunculus.
The Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes, California, provided a gorgeous Pacific Ocean view — without the sandy toes.
Planning a wedding while raising an infant was quite a task. "If I didn't have my wedding planners, I don't know what I'd do!" Fedotowsky says of working with Laura Allin and Natasha Coughlin from Gather Events.
"The vibe was classic and romantic," Fedotowsky's event producer, Leila Lewis from Be Inspired PR, tells Us. "Ali wanted something that she can look back on 10 years down the road and it's still elegant."
Brandon Kidd Photography documented the celebration.
Lounge seating from Found Rentals was a must, notes the bride: "My friend is 33 weeks pregnant!"
For the reception, Fedotowsky changed into a flowing Val Stefani A-line, which she purchased from Mon Amie Bridal. "I didn't want to feel sucked in," she explains.

Ninety guests found their seats with signs calligraphed by Red Letter Day.
Large feasting tables were decked with linens from ModMix. The centerpieces: muted brass trays and marbled glass urns bursting with arrangements of greenery and anemones.
The duo's one disagreement was over the cake. Fedotowsky liked vanilla, while Manno preferred chocolate. As a compromise, Beverly's Bakery made three desserts!
Guests danced all night to the Golden Coast All Stars' covers of "24K Magic" by Bruno Mars (Manno's pick) and old-school rock tunes (hers). "Our band kicked ass!" says Manno. Seconds his bride, "I felt like I was at a Justin Timberlake concert!"
Mallow Mallow provided handmade s'mores. "We didn’t get any!" Fedotowsky says. "It was a testament to how much fun we were having."
Guests posed for snaps from Project PhotoBooth.
The reception was so raucous that when the band wrapped at 10 p.m., the couple scrapped plans to head to the resort's bar, instead picking up Molly for a late-night feeding. "Everybody was exhausted," notes Fedotowsky. "My calves and feet felt like I just ran a marathon!" The party pains were well worth it. "Kevin is my best friend," Fedotowsky tells Us. "The day was more magical than I could have imagined. I just truly couldn't be happier."
