TAWNY & JULIAN - THE WEDDING!

Seeing this wedding again reminds me of why we do what we do! Tawny and Julian were one of our couples that had SO MUCH PERSONALITY! They wanted to make sure their guests felt like their wedding day truly captured who they were as a couple! The couple kicked off a 2- day event where they started with a welcome event for those who traveled from afar and then the main wedding day. On the day of the wedding, the bright pops of red and moody accents really showed the exciting romance that Tawny and Julian have for each other! In California, it’s always a question mark when it comes to rain, and their big day was meant to be a rainy all day. There was an option to keep it indoors, but the couple insisted they keep the wedding as planned to be outdoors, as they were SURE their guests would enjoy it either way! They were not wrong! Towards the latter half of dinner, raindrops started to fall from the sky. Each guest was given a clear umbrella and some hand warmers to keep warm. The rain did not stop them from partying it up, because this dance floor was one of the fullest we’ve seen! It was awesome to see guests dancing the night away under the California rain, that is definitely not a sight you get to see every day!

TIFFANY & LEO - THE WEDDING!

This was a wedding that we will NEVER forget! Tiffany and Leo were one of those couples that had infectious smiles and laughter! Their wedding day embodied exactly who they were as people - fun and outgoing! The couple wanted to create two different types of looks. For the ceremony, they wanted a desert/boho, and for reception a modern feel with industrial accents. During their whole planning process, they made it abundantly clear that they wanted to incorporate their adorable pup, Alfie, as much as possible! He made it down the aisle as the ring pup, he was even incorporated into the throw pillows, paper goods, and more! We had so much fun planning this wedding and can’t wait to plan some more just like this!

WENDY & NIGEL - THE WEDDING!

It’s officially summer and we are missing everything about this gorgeous summer wedding!! The couple really wanted a wedding that had an elevated rustic theme incorporated with a whole lot of romance! This was executed by having a broad spectrum of colors like gold, champagne, blush pink, peach, yellows, and green! Talk about a color palette - we love how our couples are not afraid of color! Wendy and Nigel wanted to display photos of their guests for the escort installation and this was such an amazing and personal touch. The guests really felt like a part of this wedding. We can’t wait until our next wedding where guests can dine right under the stars!

SYLVIA & JOSH - THE WEDDING!

Our sweet couple Sylvia and Josh tied the knot at the venue that brought out so much of their personality! We love the colors at the Grass Room and how perfectly it tied this whole wedding together. The couple wanted a very intimate and romantic and that is exactly what they got! The ceremony and reception were filled with the couples’ closes and dearest friends and the night went about seamlessly. Our hearts flutter when we see the photos from this wedding because you can totally see just how much love was filled in the room that day! The largest component of what makes up a wedding is the “WHO”, and there was an obvious overflow of love from all the guests!

QUINN & JON - THE WEDDING!

Quinn and Jon love Christmas! Right when we heard that they wanted to somehow incorporate actual Christmas trees into their wedding, we knew this was going to be a wedding that stood out! It amazes us just how supportive our clients are of our ideas and how together, their dreams become their reality. This wedding reception required a truss system that Art With Nature worked their magic on to create a glorious atmosphere of greens hanging from the sky during dinner. As June is starting pass and summer is just about to begin, our hearts truly go out to all the couples whose wedding have been directly affected by COVID-19. We wish you guys true comfort during this time, and the strength in knowing that your BIG DAY will be the BEST day no matter when it may be.

MONICA & TIM - THE WEDDING!

Saddlerock Ranch just might be one of the most romantic venues there ever were! Everything about this venue matched our couples’ needs so perfectly! It feels like just yesterday we were physically witnessing Monica and Tim say their “I-do’s", The colors for this wedding were just to die for! Blush pink, peach, and mixes sage green made this wedding come alive. The bride custom made flags with some secret message to her hubby on the same pathway that they shared their First Look! It’s amazing how instantly you see the couple loosen up during the First Look! Moments like this, really help us realize why we do what we do. All for LOVE!!

KANDICE & SIMON - THE WEDDING!

Have you ever attended a New Years’ Eve Wedding?! We were so excited when Kandice and Simon told us that they wanted to ring in the New Year of 2019 the right way! Our high-energy couple knew exactly how to please their guests and throw a great wedding celebration! Right off the bat, they knew they wanted their color scheme to be black and white! They even had their guests stick to wearing black as well! For this wedding, we produced a total of two-room flips! The ceremony area would be flipped to be the reception area and the cocktail hour side would be flipped to be the dancing side! This couple even chose to swap out the traditional cake for a cake pinata that was filled with their favorite flamin’ hot goodies! All in all, this New Year’s Eve wedding is one that we’ll always remember!

JOYCE & TIM - THE WEDDING!

We’ve been missing weddings so much over here! Looking through Joyce and Tim’s wedding photos really makes us feel nostalgic for that real-life wedding air! Joyce and Tim really wanted a wedding that was intimate and modern. The different shades of blue, gray, and gold accents helped achieve all this.  The hints of wood in their wedding added a definitive rustic feel to this perfect day. The couples’ adorable dog was honored several times throughout their wedding hint: cocktail napkins and first look*. Joyce and Tim chose to have their escort installation crash-course their whole eight-year dating history! We love how our couples are devoted to making their weddings express exactly who they are together!

TASHA & JEFF - THE WEDDING!

Tasha and Jeff’s wedding at Shutters on the Beach was such a breath of fresh air! We loved this wedding because of the way the couples’ faces lit up the second they saw each other! For this wedding, the color palette that was used was pastels with white and accents of green! This color palette perfectly matched the hotel and the serenity of the beach. The wedding overall was a calm yet elegant wedding that pulled the personalities of the couple together. Now that it is summertime, seeing the subtle hints of the ocean (even in their invitation suite) really makes us crave the excitement of being outdoors!

JEN & JON - THE WEDDING!

We love Hawaii! We had the privilege of being a part of a destination wedding that took place in Oahu, Hawaii for our sweet couple, Jen and Jon! The couple started their 3-day celebration with a welcome event at Longhi’s in Ko Olina where they greeted their guests and were able to spend quality time with them until the next day! The second day was when the real fun began! The couple had an intimate ceremony with the backdrop of the actual Hawaiian waves that led to the cocktail hour under the great huge trees that provided so much shade! The reception was a special farm to table meal that was filled with beautiful toasts and laughs. There were multiple dessert stations that consisted of Hawaiian shaved ice, Gelato, and the couple even personally handed out the famous Malasadas from Leonard’s to each of their guests! The grand finale of the night was when the guests were given a special performance from fire dancers who came to take the event to the next level! We will never forget all the love that was felt during this wedding where all the guests took part in this sanction in the Aloha State!

CARMEN & JEFF - THE PROPOSAL!

Yes! We plan proposals too! Proposals are such an intimate time that is intentionally all about the couple, and we love being able to be a part of that process! There’s really nothing like it! Carmen and Jeff’s proposal went flawlessly at the classic Montage of Beverly Hills. Jeff had planned an intimate walkway to highlight their many adventures. This pathway was filled with photos they had taken together over the years along with a whole lot of roses and candles. They even had an amazing violinist playing their favorite tunes while they were walking down memory lane (literally). Once they got inside to where everything was set up, the song “Perfect” by Ed Sheeran began to play in the background as he got down on one knee and popped the question! The couple also enjoyed a romantic and private dinner at that same location right after. I don’t know if it can get any more romantic than that!

JANICE & JEFF - THE WEDDING!

Janice and Jeff were the most dreamy couple ever and their wedding was just as dreamy! The couple envisioned an elegant wedding with a relaxed modern feel. They got that exact feel as their ceremony took place right next to the soothing sounds of the crashing ocean waves. Janice and Jeff chose grey, pops of navy, green, and gold for their color palette. Since this couple has a deep love for architecture, they decided to show that by making mini wooden houses for their escort display, where each guest got their own house specially made for them! We love how just by looking at the photos, we feel so serene and warm! Wishing we were back here!

JACKIE & ANDY - THE WEDDING!

Jackie and Andy’s wedding was such a special day! It involved the most high-energy guests and the absolute perfect couple! The overall feel for this wedding would best be explained as elegant and rustic. There were such graceful details to the wedding that blended perfectly within the wooden elements. The couple chose the colors periwinkle, tones of grey, and muted colors that were accented in the floral and table settings. This couple also made the great decision to have a live band from Downbeat Agency rock the night away! The dance floor was filled until the end of the event and guests were very sad to go home. This was a wedding to last a lifetime!

HANNAH & RICHARD - THE WEDDING!

Hannah and Rich’s classy wedding took place at the most amazing venue where the skyline of Downtown LA makes anyone swoon at the sight of it. The South Park Center is a venue dear to our hearts and this lovely couple totally made the space their own! The couple chose a color palette of white and gold that created a clean and airy feel for the whole event. The bride chose a bouquet and reception centerpieces to be tulips, which are her favorite flower! The incorporation of twinkle lights for their dinner portion helped elevate the mood and was the absolute perfect addition! We will forever remember how clean and romantic this wedding was!

CONNIE & ANDY - THE WEDDING!

This elegant wedding was one of our favorites that took place right near the waters in Santa Monica! Casa Del Mar is the perfect location if you’re looking for a venue with amazing food, classic features, and an incredible ocean view! Our elegant couple had a dream for a fun and romantic wedding that was just steps away from the ocean, where they were able to take the most gorgeous sunset shots. Connie and Andy decided on a color scheme of white, gold, and shades of green - it really came to life during their reception! Their paper goods also followed this scheme and it really kept consistency throughout the invitation process until the end of their wedding! This boba loving couple even had Home Brewed Bar serve their amazing beverages for all their guests to experience their shared love! We would live this day over in a heartbeat!

CAROL & FRANKIE - THE WEDDING!

This wedding is dear to our hearts because another one of our own married her sweet love of 9 years (now celebrating 11 years together!). Carol and Frankie tied the knot at the beautiful Caltech Athenaeum on a summer evening of 2018. The wedding was such a dream - it was elegant, classic, and upbeat - all the components of an amazing wedding. The details of the bride’s dress which was custom-designed by Atelier by Dawn presented such delicate florals that added even more romantic elements to match their theme. Dusty blue and shades of lavender were incorporated to create a romantic alfresco ceremony and reception. The couple’s escort installation was a nod to the grooms’ favorite timepiece brand, and their precious fur baby, Cora. The wedding included many pleasant surprises throughout their special day, including a fun choreographed dance that the couple performed for their closest friends and family. This wedding, to us, is the definition of love and happiness, when two best friends become one! We encourage everyone to hold on to their special someone and really celebrate the love that is shared every single day! Cheers to Frarol!

ANGELA & JEFF - THE WEDDING!

Angela and Jeff's wedding took place in Palm Springs where the sun shines ever so bright! This day was such a beautiful one and the couple immersed themselves in every second of it! If there’s one thing that we recommend on your big day, it would be to be “In the moment”, and Angela and Jeff, NAILED IT! The word that I would use to describe this wedding best would be “Ethereal". All the details created a very relaxed and fun vibe throughout the whole day. Instead of floral centerpieces, the guests got to enjoy the beauty and deliciousness of a charcuterie board. This added so much color and vibrance to the beautiful wood tables. It’s almost summertime, and we’re dreaming of another perfect wedding like this!

ADRIANA & BRIAN - THE WEDDING!

We LOVE color! Adriana and Brian’s wedding consisted of tones that definitely popped out to create their dream day! The color palette that the couple chose was champagne, lavender, and different tones of purple and mauve. Believe us when we say we had so much fun with this! These colors were continuously shown throughout their wedding, all starting with the paper goods that were designed by the bride’s very own sister! The couple really wanted their wedding to feel whimsical and modern at the same time. Our sweet couple was all smiles, and the bride even rocked the most luscious Rapunzel-like braids done by the amazing Studio MM&B. If we could live this day over again, we totally would! This is the closest feeling to a fairy-tale that there could be!

Kelley and Adrian’s wedding nothing short of perfect. The wedding was designed by the one and only Sarah Park Events who perfectly pieced every aspect together.

We loved the color combinations of vibrant taupe shades and subtle neutral tones.

DEBBIE & PHIL - THE WEDDING!

Debbie and Phil were one of our high-energy couples that wanted to make sure that their wedding screamed every ounce of their personalities. The color palette that was used for their big day included earth tones, navy blue, and forest green. We LOVE how vibrant this wedding was as it really reflected how energetic and sophisticated was! The couples’ love for animals really played the part in deciding to have a petting zoo available for their guests during cocktail hour. This petting zoo uniquely brought all the guests together and helped kick off the mood for the duration of the event! Phil and Debbie’s pet name for each other “BOOP” was the inspiration behind their custom escort installation that featured individually packed cocktails for each guest from the amazing Bear and Stone. This wedding was a very special and lively wedding event and definitely helps reminds us why we do what we do!
