Pure Glamour at the Four Seasons, Biltmore

Amanda & Nico were married in January at the Santa Barbara Mission and the reception was held at the Four Seasons, Biltmore, Santa Barbara.  Amanda could not have planned a more glamorous affair with lots of sparkly details, while also being the sweetest and most laid back Bride.  Meghan Christine Photography took gorgeous photographs and Tricia Dahlgren Events helped make the event run seamlessly.

 We attached her family rosary to her bouquet.

White peonies, hydrangea and garden roses made this bouquet smell absolutely divine.

You may recognize one of our former Brides, we love referrals - thank you Brianne!!!!

The Santa Barbara Mission is absolutely amazing, a true piece of art!

 The Mother's wore a simple china mum as a fun alternative to the traditional corsage.

 Ummm, they are perfect.

 Seriously, don't we all dream of a veil like that, and that dress.  It is my favorite of all time.

 The escort cards sat on a bed of white flowers.

Gold, sparkles and luxe white flowers.  What more can you ask for?

 I get so giddy when my Brides use La Tavola linens, is there anything prettier?

 Rose petals and A LOT of candles lined the head table - so romantic!

Cheers to your happily ever after Amanda & Nico, thank you for letting me be a part of your beautiful day!

Bel Air Bay Club Wedding

Natalie and Win were married at the Bel Air Bay Club in Pacific Palisades, the views were beyond stunning and the weather was perfect!  Jenny from Alders Photography (who I had the pleasure of hanging with at The Cream Event last night) captured the day perfectly and just informed me that it will be featured on a major blog in the near future.  Hallie from La Boheme Events, Jen from Prim & Pixie and Melissa from MJB Cakes (who I also got to hang with at The Cream) did an amazing job on the design of the wedding, paper goods and delish cake & dessert bar, I could not have been in better company for this gorgeous beach front wedding!

 The Bride wanted to have a classy beach theme which Hallie designed perfectly.  Loved the addition of the vintage pink goblets!

 Lots of candles, driftwood and garden roses made it super soft & romantic.

The main room in the Bel Air Bay Club is to die for.

The Groom is from Australia where the fiddle fern is symbolic, so we incorporated into the boutonnieres to honor his homeland.

 Our custom sea glass vases with just a hint of peach lined the escort card table.

 Wispy eucalyptus and soft white flowers decorated the massive fountain in the courtyard.

 We created a large, natural garland to compliment the amazing view.

MJB Cakes will seriously blow your mind.

I want a margarita.  Is it 5pm yet?

  Loved the paper goods provided by Prim & Pixie, they tied everything together.

An Elegant Affair, The Carondelet House

First off, The Carondelet House is an amazing venue, those brick walls, the mixed & matched wooden chairs and the black & white awnings are just some of the qualities that make this venue magical.  Alexis and Mateo worked closely with La Boheme Events to create the most classic wedding of the year.  Hallie & Alexis paid attention to every detail to create this romantic, elegant evening that we all want to relive over and over again.  Thankfully, we had Kelly from Wild Whim Photography so we can do so without all the work!

Amazing.

We added black privet berries to her white bouquet to add drama.

We created custom floral frames for the ceremony backdrop.  Doing this again fo sho.

We flipped the room and the ceremony backdrop became the sweetheart table backdrop.

Thank you Wild Whim, this photo is classic.

The cake topper has been in her family for years.  

More framed flowers for your viewing pleasure.
