One of the greatest joys of my job is getting the opportunity to take part in some of the happiest moments in people’s lives. I love seeing the tears, hearing the laughter and especially experiencing in the beauty of the day. Every time I am invited to be part of a wedding I get so excited to see the unique take each couple has on such an old and honored tradition. Elizabeth and Chad’s take on “the big day” was truly cool, completely unique, and amazingly fun. Not even a little rain could dampen the festivities. Guests gathered at the Korakia hotel in Plam Springs for a weekend of celebration. This hip boutique hotel boasts a Moroccan flavor which can be seen in every arched doorway, colorful lantern, and tiled fountain. Liz and Chad took this theme and ran with it, accenting the already stunning details with vintage lounge furniture and and soft candlelight. Their style didn’t stop at the decor. Elizabeth looked stunning in a gorgeous Monique Lhuillier gown while Chad rocked the Chuck Taylors. They are definitely a good looking couple but I have to say that my favorite fashion statement of the day came in the form of a pint sized grey suit and matching newsboy cap donned by the bride and groom’s little one, Cash. Too cute!

The light rain parted just in time for a gospel choir to announce the arrival of Chad’s beautiful bride. Elizabeth and Chad said their “I do’s” in the main courtyard of the hotel flanked by orchids and rose petals. Friends and family surrounded the happy couple as they exchanged vows and shared laughs. The kiss signaled the end of the ceremony and the start of one amazing party. Guests wandered the beautiful property sampling from the many unique food stations as they sipped custom cocktails and grooved to the beats of DJ Kyle Moss. The night was so magical. Congratulations to Elizabeth, Chad and Cash!

Last Saturday I had the pleasure of sharing in the wonderful wedding celebration of Carla and Matt. Friends and family gathered at St. John Fisher church in Palos Verdes for an intimate ceremony and later joined the newlyweds for some serious partying at the Palos Verdes Country Club. It was a gorgeous fall day and we had a blast walking the greens in search for the best photo opportunities. My favorite moments from the day were straight from the heart. Carla’s sister sang an amazing rendition of “Nothing at All” during their first dance and later Carla treated her new husband with a special hula. This is one seriously talented family. The day was so full of love. I am so happy to be part of such a beautiful day. Congratulations Carla and Matt!

Last Friday clients Sabrina and Travis invited me over for a play date with their one year old daughter Evelyn Grace and I couldn’t resist sharing some of my favorite moments with you. Evelyn is such a wonderful little girl. She is all smiles and full of curiosity. She delighted in discovering new things during a walk and later we had fun playing with her best friend Eva. I was even treated to a fashion show of Evelyn’s favorite hats and lady bug Halloween costume. I can’t wait to come back for more adventures with Miss Evelyn Grace.

Marlynn and Jam have been sweethearts for years so their wedding at the Anaheim Hilton has been something that their friends and family has been waiting for for a long time, and boy did Marlynn and Jam deliver. Marlynn and Jam planned their celebration for over a year and no detail was left behind. Guests were treated to so much fun and joy that even my feet were dancing to the music. You have to believe me when I say never before have I seen a dance off at a wedding like this. Marlynn and Jam’s guests really had the moves. I mean full blown “Thriller” moves. There was dancing (of course) and beautiful speeches and a touching ceremony but by far my favorite moment of the night came when Jam’s mom treated everyone to an amazing rendition of “At Last.” She gave Miss Etta James a run for her money. The whole night was filled to the brim with excitement. I loved every moment of it. Congratulations to Marlynn and Jam for hosting the wedding of a lifetime!

This past Saturday Tammy and I headed to Santa Rosa to help Kelly and Fitz celebrate their destination wedding. It was an absolutely perfect Sonoma day at Vintner’s Inn. Kelly looked beyond fabulous in a Spanish inspired gown and Fitz and the boys were styling in custom Chuck Taylors. Friends and family joined them from their home state of Illinois to raise a glass and toast to the new couple’s happiness. I absolutely loved the beautiful ceremony. Kelly and Fitz exchanged heartfelt vows as the sun set on the vineyard. It was the perfect moment bringing a weekend filled with love and laughter all together. The joyous vibes spilled over into the reception with the help of sweet tunes provided by Larry and the Lynch Mob. An amazing weekend was had by all.

After experiencing Kelly and Fitz and all their love for each other I know that like wine their love will only get better with age. Congratulations to the newlyweds!

Hilda and Gary were married at the oh so charming La Venta Inn in Palos Verdes. I absolutely loved Hilda’s glamorous gown, not to mention her sparkling Jimmy Choo’s. Hilda and Gary made quite the stylish pair. The wedding style didn’t stop there. La Venta’s classic Spanish architecture and sweet gardens gave the atmosphere of the wedding a cozy elegance. Guests floated in and out of the reception choosing to either sit under the stars or dance the night away. These love birds didn’t stop laughing the whole day. They are so in love and its so awesome to be part of their fun. Congratulations you two!
