Name That Rose!

Anyone know the name of this lovely rose?

I went to the Descanso Gardens in California yesterday and took a picture of a lovely, climbing rose in the antique rose area but wrote down the wrong name. Does anyone know what this might be? The clusters of white flowers looked like beautiful bouquets. The leaves were healthy with no disease. The buds were a sweet pink color. It was probably 20+ feet tall.

At one time I was researching being married there.
Don't they have a list of roses on their web site?

Foliage like 'Venusta Pendula', not sure if flowers completely similar. Supposedly this was sold wrongly by the old Tillotson's Roses as 'Felicite et Perpetue'. Perhaps that is what the story is with the specimen shown, and they have it mis-labeled 'Felicite et Perpetue'. There is certainly a bit of 'Venusta Pendula' on properties up here, including on marginal planting sites where there is no longer or never was any serious care being given.
