Styled Shoot :: Audrey Inspired

Years ago we had a styled shoot at the gorgeous Castle Green in Pasadena. We had a great group of vendors and our inspiration came from Audrey Hepburn. Can’t believe this was about two years ago!

In love with black and white striped ribbon handles on bouquets!

Camera, LIGHTS, I Do!!!

One of the things that many couples forget to look into for their wedding is lighting. Lighting sets the mood that you want your guests to feel for that Big Day, be it during the ceremony, cocktail hour, and especially during the reception. Do you want to make it a show stopper? The chic glamorous chandeliers are a definite to that modern romance. Or is your ideal wedding a dreamy one? Use candles as centerpieces for that picturesque wedding. It will make everyone fall in love again. “But I’m having an outdoor wedding, ” you might be saying. Here are some awe-inspiring settings for any flair you desire!

Destination Wedding Planning Review!

Our clients are the sweetest! Here is one of our most recent reviews from our destination wedding in Cancun late last year!

I had a destination wedding in Cancun Mexico and Wendy was an amazing planner. She helped me every step of way. The big day was flawless. I highly recommend her she made everything so easy and stress free.

Such a great destination wedding! We’ll be recapping this wedding soon!

Inspiration Board :: Deep Burgundies

We have a wedding in October in which we’re in the color scheme deciding process. The venue is a sweet, little spot in the valley with lots of greenery. Imagine 30 guests on 2 gorgeous wood tables.

Which route would you take?

I love this combo – radiant orchid and gold! I’m not crazy about deep purples but I love deep burgundies. It’s probably because purple has always been a pretty popular color. Do you guys love it or hate it?
