Brent and Sarah

Vintage-y shabby chic weddings are my favorite right now...so working on Brent and Sarah's wedding was so fun for me! I've known Sarah for a long time and was so excited that she asked me to do flowers for her wedding day! And it was such a privilege to work with Lost Canyons Golf Course and their staff for the second time this year...Lost Canyons knows what they're doing and they make my job so much easier!

Cisco and Danielle

Wedding season has begun for 2013!
First up for this year is the wedding of good friends Cisco and Danielle. Working with them was a blast and I got to do my first solo flower gig. FYI, If you're ever planning to do your own flowers for any event and you're in the LA area, the Flower District is a must! The selection of flowers and the prices are just incredible...it's become one of my favorite places to go.
I'm also excited to debut my new photo watermark in this post, made for me by Kristin Page of Belle Web & Print Design. She's awesome!
Check out her Etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/BelleWebPrintDesign

Thanks again, Cisco and Danielle for letting me be part of your special day!

Charles and Jenny

I am so happy I had the opportunity to help with my friends Charles and Jenny's wedding!  I enjoyed playing the slightly less stressful role of right hand woman to my friend and fellow event planner Melissa's headmistress of wedding plans!  One of the things I did for this particular wedding ended up being one of the creations I'm most proud of to date.  The Bride asked for a decorated aisle...so I set to work to give her just that!

I spent about an hour and a half in this position...but SO worth it!

6 gallon-size bags of pink petals later: the finished product!

Dustin and Rina

My good friends Dustin and Rina found a beautiful space with tall white columns for their outdoor wedding...the only problem was the space behind the columns that was not so beautiful...and I'm so glad they asked me to help!  I made a few silver satin panels that hung behind the columns, but what made their ceremony over-the-top amazing was the light from the sun that peeked over the curtains just as their ceremony began...which I canNOT take credit for, but I'm so happy I had a small part in making their wedding special!

Roy and Cynthia

Usually only photographers get the pleasure of working with couples for both their engagement and their wedding...but I also had that opportunity with my friends Roy and Cynthia!  I was very honored to help them plan their wedding...and I had way too much fun doing it!

I made their wedding invitations from 5X7 pictures, printed vellum and ribbon.

Their ceremony was held at Grace Baptist Church in Santa Clarita.  The stage was home to a large choir loft with lots of chairs, so I made curtains to cover them.  The white arch was the church's but I dressed it up with organza and flowers.

I made the flower balls that hung in the aisles to match the bridesmaids bouquets.

I hung their initials for a personalized touch.

The wedding favors were different flavors of candy suckers.  Each girl in the wedding party decorated a pot and the guests grabbed a sucker from a pot on their way out.  It was a personalized touch and each pot was so cute and different!
