Happy Monday!

I know Mondays are hard!  Here’s a pretty ranunculus to start your day off pretty.  Andrea + I went to the flower mart on Tuesday and this little beaut is still looking perfect!

We’re tying up some details for our next event in March which is going to blow your pants off!  It’s going to be an epic vow renewal!

We’re loving the peachy pastels, watercolor, and even a bit of ombre effect so we created this sweet combo!

Destination Wedding Planner :: Cancun Style

I love every detail about planning a wedding and I love it even more when I get to travel mixing cultural aspects of the destination we’re in.  One of my favorite places is Cancun.  In 2013 we had that epic wedding at ME by Melia and in 2014 we went back for the LOVE Mexico conference.

Here are a couple highlights of this event that took place at the Hard Rock Riviera Maya!

For the most part we were inside for the conference.

But every night we were dined with great food and awesome entertainment!  This night we were at Barcelo Riviera Maya.

And on one of the last days they had the Colin Cowie collections out!

So who’s up for a destination wedding?  Give us a call to start the planning party!  Thanks to the Pixan Photography for the images!

Destination Weddings :: Aspen

I’m always talking about my love for Cancun and Riviera Maya destination weddings but I was recently invited to lunch with some great Aspen hotels that gave me more info on this pretty, little mountain town.  The awesome part of Aspen is that there are so many things for your guests to do while they’re there.  Any destination that has a variety of attractions is a great place so your guests will never be bored. plus it’s a vacation for them too right?

Found these images that certainly make me want to visit in this 90 degree Cali heat.

In my book, you can never go wrong with a destination proposal especially in a romantic city like Venezia. The backdrops for destination proposals are unbeatable!! Here are some of my faves:

Is there such thing as a perfect proposal? It depends on who you ask! The definition of a perfect proposal is going to vary from individual to individual–what is special and meaningful to one couple may mean nothing to the next and that’s perfectly okay. At the end of the day, we just want to know that our future husband put some thought into it, actually maybe a lot of thought.

For those not engaged yet, what are your thoughts on an intimate proposal versus a public one? Any preference?

Happy Friday!

2015 Wedding Trend :: The Bohemian Chic

With wedding season right around the corner, this post is inspired by a trend we anticipate to continue seeing a lot of this summer—the bohemian chic wedding!
When it comes to flowers, we will be seeing more floral arrangements and bouquets made of flowers that look like they have been freshly picked from the garden. Below are some of my favorite bouquets:

Brides and bridesmaids will be wearing flower crowns. For a dramatic effect, we love this:

For brides looking for a more subtle look, these work out perfectly:

And this cake though… What a perfect combination of succulents, ranunculus and anemones!

This is a theme that can also be repurposed for a bridal or baby shower too!

Today we have a blush and dark navy, almost charcoal color palette.  This totally reminds me of chalkboards and Rifle Paper Co..
