How fortunate that they hired a photographer who works in a very rainy region, Seattle. Joey from John and Joseph Photography also based in Los Angeles was the perfect guy for a rainy day wedding, you couldn’t tell looking at these photos! Betty looked stunning in her multiple outfits!

Betty and Mario wanted a fun and entertaining wedding with a show stopping timeline from lion dancers to flamenco salsa performers to a mini movie love story and slideshow. Their friend and brother were the dynamic duo MCs and kept the party going all night. You’ll see in the post that LED’s by Amber Event Production played an important role in changing the mood of the room as we changed lighting colors based on the entertainment…IE Red lighting for the Chinese Dragon performance! One of my favorite decor item was the double riser cake stand encrusted with rhinestones, provided by Nisie’s Enchanted Flowers.

Monique and Mike make a beautiful couple and we wanted to share their wedding featured in the Spring 2012 issue of Destination I Do Magazine! Their wedding took place at the St. Regis Monarch Beach, which was an intimate celebration with their close family and friends. The ceremony was outdoors on the Gazebo Lawn followed by a reception in Club 19, that was part in doors and out doors, with gorgeous views of the manicured golf course and Pacific Ocean. Big kudos to Jasmine Star for photographing these pretty pics (you rock girl!), and R. Jack Balthazar for the flowers and decor. I loved the simple color palette of white, creams, grey and hints of blue. Shout out to gourmetinvitations.com for the lovely paper goods! Be sure to pick up a copy of Destination I Do Magazine’s Spring 2012 issue to see the full feature of Monique & Mike’s wedding.

Our very own Details Details Bride and Groom, Meghan and Andrew, were featured in Smitten Magazine’s March/April 2012 issue. They had their wedding at the St. Regis Resort in Monarch Beach California with an elegant theme with soft white, sand, blue, and gray colors. The bride had a gorgeous mermaid gown designed by Vera Wang that went beautifully with her bouquet of all white orchids. They had dinner outside…dancing under the stars on a summer night, and they didn’t stop letting loose once the band was done. Definitely had a fun After Party where the groom spontaneously performed with the band an unscripted performance to the song “Safety Dance.” How fun!

We are delighted to see our very own, Chelsea, and her husband Omid’s wedding featured in the Winter 2011/2012 Aroos Magazine. Chelsea & Omid got married at Pelican Hill and had two wedding ceremonies that day to incorporate both of their cultures. Their sofreh ceremony was in Pelican’s La Capella Ballroom (specailly designed by Omid’s Mother, Ashley) and their 2nd ceremony was out on the Event Lawn (you got to love the hanging chandeliers)! The wedding was planned by Jeannie and designed by Sunny at White Lilac. Chelsea and Omid selected a color scheme of whites, silvers, and mink to keep the room in mainly cool tones, warm and inviting. I loved the manzanita trees with hanging glass orbs, crystals, and gardenias, which added a touch of a modern feel to the room. Shout out to Triplecord Photography for these lovely photos and Elysium Productions for creating the awesome wedding video. DJ Mike Soltani kept the party going with the tunes going all night! Thank you to Nichelle with Details a la Carte for creating their invitations and paper goods. It was fun for our team to see this feature as Chelsea looked absolutely radiant and glowed with happiness on her big day!

Nicole & Perry’s love is sweet, and when it came to their wedding, they wanted to have a beautiful yet charming wedding at the Montage in Laguna Beach. Nicole and Perry loved the ocean view setting (who can resist the beauty) and the warm ambiance at the Montage. The decided to complement the venue by choosing wedding design that had a touch of the beach feel, but was also soft and romantic. White Lilac Inc. was the perfect fit for their floral & event designer and they picked a color palette that was refreshing and clean in shades of white, cream, blue, green and brown. The bridesmaids bouquets were fun doing separate styles for each gal, but using flowers incorporated in the wedding. To soften up the Ballroom for their wedding they decided to drape the room, add a natural wash look for the lighting, and keep the centerpieces at the guest tables low and lush. I am a big fan of the tuscany chiavari chairs they picked, as it goes perfectly with the overall look. Another fun touch they added to the ballroom was the large mirrors they had laying against the draping…gorgeous! Thank you to Jessica Claire for capturing all the joy during their wedding!

It was fun seeing Natasha & Fred’s wedding featured this week on Style Me Pretty! Here is a little bit about their special day at The London West Hollywood!

Natasha and Fred, living thousands of miles apart, her in China and him in New York, planning a destination wedding in Los Angeles at The London West Hollywood. You would have to have a fun easy going personality to pull off long distance anything, and Natasha was all that. One of the sweetest, sincerest people I have met, with a generous heart and relinquished trust to all those she met. She gave Carissa with JL Designs and I great freedom, to create a modern crisp chic rooftop wedding. Natasha swooned over grey pumpkins! And how fitting for an October wedding as they were in season just weeks before her date. Table tops featured light grey and white chain link pattern runners, with ceramic white vases, cream and white flowers, grey succulents, fuzzy dusty miller leaves, and pop of eggplant callas and burgundy dahlias. A letterpress invite cotton paper was created by Nichelle from Details A La Carte who went bananas over the type font and off center layout. “Eat Drink and be married” menu cards adorned each place setting with chocolate truffles and succulent accents. The best gift, was Natasha’s sister made their wedding cake and cupcake desserts! I LOVE their photos by Jan Garcia Photography. Jan truly captured the beauty of the couple and the fun details of the wedding!

Ben & Ruby make an adorable couple and they had a divine wedding at The Montage in Laguna Beach. Ruby is a girly girl and Nisie’s Enchanted Florist did a fantastic job capturing her style into the flower arrangements and decor. They picked a soft yet warm color palette of white, cream, blush, pale yellow and touches of gold tones. I loved the candle lit glow during their dinner reception…everything felt so romantic. Shout out to Elysium Productions for being their amazing videographers, DJ-Cerritos All Starts for keeping the party going, and Steven with Chiavari Chair Rentals for providing the chiavari chairs and dance floor, which complemented their design! Thank you Chris & Kristen with Chris & Kristen Photography for sharing some of their wedding photos with us. You two captured all the memorable moments through out their wedding!

Beautiful video created by Living Cinema! Jindy and Tilmann make a gorgeous couple, and this video captures their sweet love towards each other…love the film look!

Curtis from Living Cinema writes:
We had a very busy Fall last year and one of our last weddings for the year was Jindy & Tilmann’s at the beautiful Resort at Pelican Hill. From the first time I met Jindy & Tilmann, I was instantly inspired and charmed by their personalities and vibrant love. Their two families came together from across the world to celebrate with them and there was a real sense of rich family history. I could talk all day about all of the beautiful moments I had to leave out from this short vignette, but I’ll restrain and let the film sweep over you.
