We celebrate spring with a bright and cheerful yellow-infused wedding between Nicole and Luke. The adorable couple both lead very interesting lives in Australia where the bride is a professional bicycle racer and the groom a professional golfer. Nicole and Luke were married underneath a canopy of oak trees in an intimate understated ceremony amongst family and friends at her parent’s home in Saratoga, California.

Erin and Andrew

Erin and Andrew happens to be one of the sweetest and most fun couples we have ever worked with. The UCLA graduates both live in Southern California but grew up in the South Bay, so it was only natural to celebrate their wedding in the Bay Area. Erin, the bride, came to us with a theme of cameos, ballet and dance. We took the idea and ran with it. The blush pink wedding held at the Montalvo Center for Arts in Monte Sereno, California featured an incredible amount of details all pointing back to Erin’s original idea of cameos and dance.

Erin chose a teardrop shaped bouquet which included peonies, ranunculus and hydrangeas. The special detail: tulle from her mother’s veil skirted the bouquet reminiscent of a ballerina’s tutu. The Candy Buffet was right out of an old apothecary or penny candy store, a nod to romance and nostalgia. We did not forget Erin’s wish of cameos. Featured behind the bride and groom’s chairs we hung silhouettes of the couple. Not enough details, you say. How about a tree adorned with 1001 hanging cranes? As per Japanese tradition, Erin’s family lovingly folded 1001 cranes to bring happiness and luck to the couple. We wish the couple happiness and prosperity as well.

Gilbert-Martin Wedding at The Ritz

We did a beautiful wedding this past week for a total of 6 people! The Bride contacted us via email and we planned her entire wedding without meeting until the day of her wedding. Heather is the most sweetest Southern Belle you could ask for. She knew what she wanted and we were more than happy to carry out her wishes. Her Family was as sweet as could be, full of Southern Hospitality and Charm.

After an intimate ceremony on the Miramontes Terrace and dinner in the Observatory they retired back to the terrace for S’mores!

Clos La Chance

Weddings at Clos La Chance are our favorite. We love the venue, the staff, and beauty of the setting. Our Bride was beautiful in a lace, fitted gown, that looked beautiful on her and she looked beautiful in it. It was a perfect Sunday afternoon, guests were greeted by images of the family and parasols waiting to shade them at the ceremony. Michele the on-site coordinator was great as usually, calm and ever helpful.

Our Wedding Coordinator and Designer Nancy Thomas and Anthony Solano got married on June 9th, 2011 at the beautiful Nestldown. It was a gorgeous day under the Redwoods. It was the first time that Brooke at Nestldown hosted a wedding down below in the grove. She was stunningly beautiful in her gown. Nancy has been our manager and lead designer for 4 years and has a great sense of style. The menu was vegetarian and artfully made by Thomas Johns Catering. Of course we did the flowers, but Nancy came in and made her own bouquet, from peonies she cut herself from the peony farm in Milpitas. She chose every fragrant flower she could find; gardenias, tuberose, lily of the valley, freesia, peonies and sweetpeas.
