Whoa! Last post was written back in May?!

Needless to say, it's been a BUSY wedding season. I am so blessed for the opportunities to share & help create such special days for such special people. This year really has provided me a chance to meet some of the most creative, talented, & loving couples. I feel I could write a book expressing my respect & admiration for these clients, as well as the many new professionals I've met & worked with for the first time. Perhaps, I will save that for a later post.....There really are some amazing pros I'd love to show off!
This year has also blessed me with a new addition to our family. We are expecting another baby girl next month! I get to enjoy two more weddings & then it's Baby Time! :-) Not that I'm trying to make excuses, but hopefully you can understand why the blog has been put on hold the last few months. Clients, weddings, & family comes first. I will do my best to update you with recent photos, informative tid bits, & relevant wedding info as the season slows down. I have also placed Kaci in charge of creating posts so the pressure is on, Miss Kaci!

Exciting news!

We are so incredibly proud & flattered to have won the "best coordinated wedding of 2010" from Style Unveiled!
Charlene & Michael were an absolute joy to work with. We miss them & their wedding terribly.
Their wedding took place at the Riviera Resort in Palm Springs. Everything about their wedding was joyous, their family, friends, details, weather....everything.
Their superstar photographer was  Michael Segal. We are so excited to be collaborating with him, this August, for another fabulous wedding.
You can check out the photos here.

Neetu & Ken married!

Neetu has a sharp sense of style. From the beginning, she knew she would not be donning a puffy white gown. For her ceremony she was adorned in an exquisite pink & blue sari which she purchased at a designer shop in India.  Afterward, she changed into a sequined black stunner.

The day was dazzling in glamorous details. Everything was hot pink & black w/ damusk details intermixed (stationary accents, table runners, etc…). Neetu’s fashionable taste was apparent.
The room underwent a magical lighting makeover during the switchover from the ceremony to reception design.

For the ceremony, the guests’ chairs circled the stage, along with 4 giant silver trees with crystals to really make a statement.
After the ceremony, guests were escorted upstairs to enjoy cocktail hour, while the dining room was transformed into a divine reception space.  The décor offered a really modern, glamorous feel. The dance floor was covered w/ a damask wash. Every single orchid was painted magenta (hot pink) so even in the dark space, the flowers really popped. The magenta uplights enhanced the etched characteristics of the walls & ceiling.

Isn't she gorgeous?
Love how her candy table was round.

In lieu of favors, Neetu & Ken made donations on their guests' behalf (although, there was a treat in the bag).





I love Lily Stein's style. It's as though we're looking at a fashion magazine....

Jenna & Gerry married!

This was such a gorgeous wedding at the breathtaking Bel-Air Bay Club.
Jenna is an example of a beautiful person both inside & out. I can tell she is an amazing pediatrician by the way she was constantly poised & thoughtful towards others. Check these photos taken by Laura Bailey Photography, just gorgeous!

These hot cocoa shots were mesmerizing, ha ha. I want one, now.



Carrie McCluskey is the incredible photographer behind these shots. Stephanie & Joe celebrated their wedding at the Ayre's Hotel in Manhatten Beach. What a beautiful couple.
Thank you for the photos, Carrie!
