Happy New Year!

To all of the newly engaged couples out there, we are offering a 10% off any of our planning services through 1/20/2011, a very special day for me!  

So excited for this season, a couple of good friends have gotten engaged in the last couple of days!  Hope everyone has a fabulous NEW YEAR!

Real Wedding: Elizabeth + Paul

So happy to share images of this wedding at the Long Beach Aquarium of Elizabeth + Paul.  This one was definitely a special one because the groom had a very special surprise for his lovely bride.  We would meet and when she would get up for reason a or b, he would update me on his surprise.  It was exciting!

 First look!  I always love these shots and the expressions they make when they first see each other!

 It’s a big whale!  We had a whole 2 hours to transform this venue after it closed…talk about time crunch!

Here’s the big surprise.  Paul had rented a baby grand piano and got Matt Giraud to come and perform!  Even Paul sang for her!  Seriously, this guy loves his girl and he wasn’t afraid to show it!

I hear Mrs. Liz is now expecting!  Congratulations to you both!  Can’t wait to see that baby bump!

Wax Paper Poms

Everyone out there knows about the infamous tissue paper, but have you seen wax paper poms?  I think they’re gorgeous!   They have this softer look about them…
What do you think?
This is all you need:
  • Waxed Paper
  • Scissors
  • Covered Floral Wire or flexible metal wire

You can use them so many ways!  For decor at home, weddings, and gifts.  Christmas is just right around the corner!

The process is pretty much the same as making tissue paper poms but if you’ve forgotten how to, head on over to the Nice Package Blog!

Happy Weekend!
