Vintage Gold wedding at La Valencia Hotel La Jolla ~ Ceremony Magazine 2012

I love everything about this wedding.  The bride, the colors and texture, the beautiful Ocean front location……. The wedding of Erica and Craig was published in the latest Ceremony Magazine San Diego.   The theme and tone of this wedding includes the rich Golds, vintage lace and delicious texture of garden flowers.  The ceremony was set in the garden over looking the ocean where we provided two large and lush floral pieces.  The flowers includes peonies, french tulips and garden roses.  The beautiful reception took place in the Verandah room with spectacular views of the ocean.  Rich floral display of buttercream colored flowers set in wrought iron stands graced each table.  The lovely menus from JGrace was beyond perfection.  I love the harmony of the light feminine colors combined with a rustic element.  The sweetheart table was set in the midst of the room fully embellished with our very own rich gold over lay.  The elegant  vintage style of the this wedding paired very well with La Valencia Hotel.  We incorporated our crystal chandeliers to add to this ‘Vintage inspired’ yet elegant wedding.  Special thanks for CBS weddings for the coordination and Darin Fong for the beautiful images.

Purple and Gold tabletop ~ Featured in Ceremony Magazine

If you love the rich purple plum fuchsia palette, you will LOVE the following tabletop we designed for Ceremony Magazine 2012.  Using some of our favorite blooming stars:  Makara orchids, tulips, cymbidium orchids, phalaenopsis orchids, and roses gracefully sitting atop gold stand.  The touches of gold tassel trimming, velvet seats on Chameleon chairs and cascading tulips brings femininity and softness to this tabletop while the bold gold in the place setting and dark containers brings a harmonious balance.  Thank you to Jgrace luxurious  stationery for the striking menu and of course Pam Scott for the stunning images.


Chanel inspired wedding ~ tabletop featured in Ceremony Magazine Orange County

Our absolutely favorite tabletop photo shoot ever!  Who doesn’t like a little Ccoco Chanel?  The classic and elegant style of chanel simply makes my heart goes pitter patter.  This Chanel tabletop was designed exclusively for Ceremony Magazine 2012 in Orange County.  Needless to say, we are obsessed with the texture, color and sense of style of this brand.  Everything about this tabletop shouts ‘gorgeousness’!!!  Think ruffles,quilted texture, tweed (french ‘Lineage’), black and pink and all the glamorous crystal blings.  We took full advantage of Cafe au lait Dahlias that were in full bloom.  The ruffles of the peonies and cattleya orchids were insanely gorgeous and perfect for this table.  We hand crafted each vessel and adorn them with ruffle rosettes from tweed and sheer fabrics and feathers.  The mirrored table accentuated and enhanced all the gorgeous blooms on the table.  We enlisted the fabulous Jennifer from Jgrace stationery to assist us with the upscale custom menus.  Each menu custom wrapped with tweed fabric to coordinate with our lovely theme.  The photo shoot was complete with the dessert table displaying a posh macaroon wedding cake.  Ooooh la la.  C’est magnifique!
These gorgeous images were taken by the ever talented Pam Scott.

 



A Grandeur wedding at the Grand Del Mar ~ featured in Ceremony Magazine 2012

I am still gazing at the magnificent wedding of Linda and Steven at the Grand Del Mar in the latest Ceremony Magazine 2012.  Their extravagant, lavish and luxurious wedding looked amazing in print.  Linda and Steven was a joy to work with. Their excitement for their own  wedding was contagious.  Their expectations were high but so was their gratitude.  In the beginning stage of  planning,  we all knew that this wedding will be filled with tons of fine and gorgeous details.  It was indeed an elaborate affair filled with glitz and glamour.  The rich gold and neutral tones worked very well at the Grand Del Mar.  I can not tell you how many crystal brooches were used, but there were in abundance!  The ceremony took place in the Capella chapel.  Tall thick pillar candles lined the center aisle amidst luscious white petals.  Two large florals sat atop a custom crystal tufted columns that flanked the altar. Moving to the dinner celebration, beautiful large white floral arrangements at each guest table graced the Elizabeth ballroom.  Each vessel was hand painted with gold leaf adorned with hanging crystal prisms.  The striking custom seamless dance floor with their gorgeous custom logo (designed by Jgrace) was stunning and definitely set the tone for their wedding.  I love how the rich gold palette looked in this ballroom.  From the custom menus provided by Jgrace to our signature crystal brooch napkin rings, the attention to details was absolutely key to the overall look of this wedding.  The beautiful bride and groom looked amazing dancing to the fabulous Wayne Foster Entertainment.  This could very well be out of a movie.  Spectacular!  Kudos to CBS weddings for the smooth and flawless planning and True Photography for these amazing photos.  Congratulations to the beautiful couple Linda and Steven!
