“Beautiful dream. The symbolism of Red. Boldly romantic, charming, protective, grand, seductive, sexy. From dahlia to scarlet, crimson and vermillion. A celebration of love.” – Vera Wang

We’re excited to invite all of our Details Details Brides to the Vera Wang trunk show on April 26th-28th at their LA boutique! Be sure to make your appointment to attend the preview…these dresses are truly show-stoppers! I love how Vera Wang has been experimenting with the non traditional white wedding dress. They make a great statement, but for those Brides who want to stick with something a little more traditional, you can always order the dresses in white or ivory! To make your appointment call 323-602-0174.

I wanted to share Tommy’s Bar Mitzvah that took place at the Smog Shoppe in Los Angeles. For any of you that haven’t seen the Smog Shoppe, it is a super cool venue, and it is a great setting for a Bar Mitzvah! I loved the eclectic and urban vibe of the venue, and jazzed up with White Lilac’s design…it was just perfect for Tommy. Tommy is really into tennis, so Sunny from White Lilac took his love of the sport and created a vintage tennis theme for the party. One of my favorite aspects of the decor, was the tennis rackets and balls that were strung across the outside section. Another favorite would have to be the tee shirt favors passed out to all the teens at the party. It was a big hit and a fun memento! The invitation and paper goods created by Rachel Baker with Rock Paper Scissors Design was just too cool! The little details through paper goods really make a big impact on tying the theme of the party together. A huge shout out to Good Gracious Catering. Their menu and catering was fantastic. Thinking about all the food at the Bar Mitzvah makes my mouth water! Thank you Charlie Star for taking all the photos. These photos capture the beauty of the Tommy’s celebration! It was such a pleasure working with the Kendall Family on Tommy’s Bar Mitzvah…such a warm and amazing group of people! I am looking forward to working with them for Tommy’s sister’s Bat Mitzvah 2013.

Angeli & Rishi make a gorgeous couple and it was fun working with Angeli’s family on their engagement party! Angeli & Rishi both have big families and it was fun to bring their family and friends together in honor of their engagement. There was so much eye candy at the party with all the beautiful saris worn by the women. All the different colors and intricate details were just stunning…loved the jewelry, too!

Guests enjoyed meeting for a cocktails and mingling on the entry level of the house and then moved downstairs for dinner and dancing (and boy this group knows how to dance)! Everyone enjoyed yummy Indian food catered by Manohar with Delhi Palace…I couldn’t resist the fresh made naan! Shout out to Steve and Harry with The Black Napkin for being the awesome serving and bar tending staff for the evening! Also, thank you to Melissa with Belle Amie Photography for sharing the engagement photos! I am looking forward to their wedding this summer!

As much as we LOVE weddings, it is fun to switch it up and work on other events, too! Jeannie and I worked with Shirleen to create a fun-filled 60th birthday bash/retirement party for her husband, Lee, at the Resort at Pelican Hill. Shirleen really wanted this party to be all about Lee, as he never makes anything about him, and she had lots of fabulous ideas for her husband’s party theme. Lee’s company is Antimite Termite and Pest Control and it was only natural that the birthday party colors to be the company colors of red, white, and blue. We had guests arrive to the Mar Vista Lounge for a cocktail hour that was themed in red and white and then moved inside the Mar Vista Ballroom for the dinner reception in blue, white, and touches of red. We loved the table decor created by White Lilac Inc! They did a great job doing a tasteful job of decor using the colors of red, white and blue. One of the highlights of the Birthday Party was the toasts from Shirleen, co-workers, and family members…very comical and heartfelt! After dinner there was a surprise revealing of the casino tables in the Sunroom and guests enjoyed playing Black Jack, Roulette, and Craps while also dancing the night away on the dance floor (Shout out to Best Casino Events)! Towards the end of the party Lee’s surprise birthday cake was wheeled out to the middle of the dance floor. The birthday cake was a replica of a house getting tented with the Antimite tent and was filled with details such as the company logo, and engravings in the cement. The cake was too funny…Lee didn’t even want to have it cut! Kudos to Sara Heslington with Heslington Cakes for creating such a cool cake! There were was lots of laughter and love in the room that night and we were happy to be part of this celebratory event! Thank you to Shirleen for being such a pleasure to work with and a big congrats to Lee on his retirement!

About a month ago, I was invited to be a guest at dinner at the Shoot This Not That seminar put on by Summer Grey of Grey Likes Weddings….the style shoot was adorbs! The reason I want to feature this is because of two vendors who put their heart and soul into the table….Fayaz with Bloombox Designs and Elaine with Papermade Design. Big Rah Rah for such awesome creative work. I swooned over the invite…can you tell its a water color ombre, the soft gradation of color….HOW PRETTY! And oh Fayaz, he went bananas with the props, you think we were in the Hamptons! Just darling…and then I briefly met Janel who sent me the cutest photos. I swear her photos are AWESOME!
