Cuvier Wedding: Sarah Loves Ryan

   

   On July 28^th, Sarah and Ryan said their vows to one another in an intimate ceremony amongst 25 of their closest friends and family. Cuvier Park in La Jolla was the perfect backdrop for their simple and beautiful destination wedding celebration. The park is nestled on top of the beach with breathtaking views of what seems to be an endless blue ocean. An “S”, for the couples last name, made up of purple rose pedals adorned the grass where the couple would soon say “I Do”. Tropical flowers were tided to the sides of the guest chairs and the corners of the canopy. As each guest entered the park, they were greeted and pinned with a purple orchid, adding an even closer feel to this already intimate ceremony.

    When the ceremony was over, Sarah and Ryan surprised their guest with fun transportation to their reception location, Eddie V’s, in an all white and gold Felicity Wedding Trolley. Once guest arrived at Eddie V’s, they were taken upstairs and welcomed by beautiful music from Jeff Bishop’s guitar, and even more spectacular views of the coast. In such an intimate setting, guests were able to drink their wine, enjoy the seafood tower, all the while mingling with all the wedding guest as the sun slowly set. Sarah and Ryan and their guest ate, drank, and laughed the rest of the night away. So glad I could be apart of such a loving happy day.

Heather loves Nick (Featured on Style Me Pretty!)

Oh how I love this wedding! I was originally approach this time last year by the Mother of the Groom, Joanne. Immediately, I fell in love with this entire family. Heather and Nick compliment each other oh so well, and the creative forces of Mother of the Bride Debbie and Joanne were quite the combination. The entire family chipped in to hand-create many of the items you see here. Most of the details, including all of the stationary, the brooch bridal bouquet and the hand-painted chargers (for 200 guests!) were created by Debbie. Melissa helped tie together all of the details, and designed the florals. All of the hard work and attention to details truly paid off! It was a beautiful day, captured by Acqua Photo. We were so excited when the wedding was featured on Style Me Pretty! See the feature, and all of the beautiful pics below. Heather and Nick, you are an incredible couple on the inside and the outside. Thank you for allowing me to help plan your celebration!

Jenille Loves Robin

Jenille and Robin were married this past spring at the Coronado Community Center. Over an eighteen month period, each detail was coordinated to reflect the couple's wedding theme "Distance and Time." This represented their long-distance romance, as well as the many places they had traveled together. With catering by Personal Touch and Manila Food, the entire meal was not only stupendous, but honored the couple's heritage. Tables alternated between floral arrangements and a "shadow box" created by the bride and groom. These unique tabletops included a photo of the couple in a place they traveled together, as well as trinkets and memories from the location. The couple certainly had fun in mind. With a photo booth by Chaz Cruz, magician Kevin on hand during cocktail hour, and the lego cake topper made by the groom, the day was a really fun party! Jenille and Robin, I so enjoyed getting to know you and your families during the planning process and on the wedding day! Thank you for putting your faith in me.
