Danielle & Jared : A Winter Wonderland

What do you get when you pair a live painter…a champagne tower…a vintage sleigh and an indoor snow fall…? One of the most fabulously glamorous Hotel Del Coronado weddings of the year! This winter-wonderland wedding literally had it all!

Blush dupioni silk paired with a rich lace and merlot accenting was the perfect backdrop to the dramatic palette and detailed floral textures. The sparkle of glittering crystal candelabras surrounded by lush, low floral centerpieces and layers of candlelight were scattered throughout tall, impressive floral centerpieces atop traditional gold stands. The head table boasted large centerpieces clustered with low, crystal candelabras featuring tall taper candles and golden candlelight. A festive ambiance was created with the movie “It’s a Wonderful Life” softly played in the background and custom ornaments were given out to each guest.

Abby & Chris : A Rainy Day at the Del

Ready… Set… SWOON! This wedding truly took our breath away. It was POURING rain the day of this dreamy wedding, but you wouldn’t be able to tell from the lovely feel of the ballroom.

Our fabulous bride Abby came to us with a color scheme of ivory and gold in mind and together, we transformed the large ballroom space at the iconic Hotel Del Coronado into a soft and glamorous wonderland of ivory, cream and light gold with splashes of fresh green and subtle pops of black. We chose a soft ivory linen topped with a delicate gold lace overlay and paired them with light gold napkins. To bring in the black, we designed custom velvet napkin embellishments and subtle candle holder wrapping complete with a rhinestone brooch. Clusterings of mercury glass, gold and mirrored mediums were paired along the table, adding texture and dimension from candle holders to platforms and vases. Tall, shaped glass cylinders and regal gold candelabras were accented by dripping crystal pendants and large, lush and loose florals in shades of ivory, cream, white and fresh green.

Stefanie & Brad : A Luxe Pink Beach Wedding

We are flipping over the images of this gorgeous wedding (and great looking couple!) thanks to She Wanders Photography! Pink/glam was the theme for this stunning soiree, and the ladies of Luxe Events took that concept and ran with it flawlessly. A soft, garden feel was chosen for the ceremony followed by a glam reception dripping in Swarovski crystals and delicate lace.

The bride chose to carry a glittering bouquet of dripping white orchids and soft blush and pink blooms, complete with a dripping jewel accenting. Each bouquet was finished with a glittering brooch.

S & B’s drool-worthy ceremony took place on the lawn at the iconic Hotel Del Coronado, where we used our ivory draped canopy to create a unique, romantic scene. We custom created dripping crystal swags to tie back each pole and placed A-symmetrically cascading floral arrangements in soft ivory, white, blush, pink and fresh green tones. Gorgeous, lush arrangements were placed at the entry to the aisle atop our lace-accented ivory pedestals. The result was pretty magical.

The “pretty in pink” reception couldn’t have been more detailed and fabulous! We created Three types of centerpieces paired with a long, lush, elevated floral runner placed down the length of the head table!

Brittany & Hunter : A Fairytale Love

What better place to meet your soulmate than DISNEY LAND! These two love birds met at the “happiest place on earth” and their wedding guests would agree that they created true magic on their big day. Victoria Schroeder, owner of Victoria Weddings, perfectly orchestrated this regal affair with not a single detail forgotten. A huge thank you to the oh-so-talented Paul Barnett, of Paul Barnett Photography, for capturing stunning images of this estate wedding in all of its glory! A large custom tent was created atop the couples tennis court, complete with a purple carpet and glittering crystal chandeliers. Silver linens were paired with a purple color scheme.

Centerpieces were placed atop our glittering crystal candelabras. Custom vintage mirrored and ivory platforms were wrapped in a rich taffeta and brooch accent paired with a clustering of petite floral arrangements and candles of varying heights.

The gorgeously detailed head table was topped with a lush floral runner, spanning the entire length of the table.

The entry to the home was marked with two very large floral centerpieces, dripping with orchids and fragrant blooms. A custom stage was built atop the couples swimming pool for guests to enjoy throughout the evening! It’s all in the details!

Be Mine : Romantic Inspiration

Oh the glitter, glamour and fabulousness that was this inspiration shoot! We have been eager to share this beauty with you all and we hope you love it as much as we do! The Westgate Hotel in downtown San Diego was the PERFECT backdrop for this Parisian-inspired look. A big thank you to Couture Events, Whimsique and Bryan Miller Photography for collaborating with us on this tabletop. We opted for an elevated centerpiece as we really wanted to pull in the romance of a glittering crystal chandelier, and boy did we ever! We attached delicate Swarovski crystal strands to our center chandelier to create a “dripping” effect, pooling on the table below. To give it a bit of a unique twist, we utilized a sheer champagne silk to A-symmetrically drape from the florals on to the floor. To amplify the A-symmetrically placed silk, we brought in our gold candelabras in varying heights and sizes. We are simply swooning over how this turned out! Keep your eyes out for this tabletop feature in Exquisite Weddings Magazine!

Lindsay & Steven : All that Glitters is Gold

Planning a wedding from afar can be a difficult and even frightening process without the proper team of professionals to help guide the way. Lindsay and Steven came to us via the fabulous Cynthia Zatkin, of Cynthia Zatkin Events and they truly could not have asked to be in the hands of a more knowledgeable and caring coordinator/planner. Together with Cynthia, we created a fantastically sophisticated affair, dripping in creamy ivories, rich golds and glittering accents.

L chose to carry a fragrant, all ivory bouquet of textured gardenias, spray roses, hydrangea, various roses and other elements, her bridesmaids wore her accent color, teal.

Set against the perfect backdrop of the Prado Ballroom at Balboa Park, the reception was true timeless glamour realized. Textured gold La Tavola linens and napkins were paired with gold rimmed charger plates, glasses and our pairing of both mercury glass and clear glass candles. We created two different centerpiece styles, with some being tall atop shaped glass stands with Swarovski crystal accents and some short to the table with tall candle holders rising from within the lush, floral centerpiece.

The escort card display was created on vintage shutters that we accented with gently sprawling vines and petite white blooms to appear as though they were naturally blooming

A traditional ceremony was held at the stunning Immaculata at USD. HUGE thank you to the fabulous photographers at Cole Joseph Photography!

Karis & Blake : KEBBAM Part II

K & B’s reception was created in a “moving” fashion, meaning that it was not set up as a traditional sit down dinner format, but instead was created through various furniture vignettes with a mixture of lounge and formal sitting spaces hand picked and designed by Jenny Minns of Luxe Events. Custom fabric wrapped tables, booths and sofas were created by Hire Elegance.

The grand entrance was flanked by six of our large, glittering crystal candelabras topped with large, draping ivory floral arrangements.

Custom tables were topped with our dramatic crystal candelabra centerpieces. We created custom ivory platforms wrapped in a rich taffeta with brooch accents complete with a sleek mirrored top. Various candlelight in mercury glass and clear glass was placed throughout the room and grouped around the tall centerpieces, adding a warm glow.

A photo area was set up with a life-size cut out of the couple flanked by two tall centerpieces placed atop our custom pedestals. The entry to the two sides of food stations were marked by over 100ft of densely packed babies breath garlands and dripping floral wreaths.
