This gorgeous wedding was an absolute labor of love for us. Our fabulous bride, J, wasn’t sure if she wanted to go with a classic, timeless design or whether she wanted to up the drama with a little unique twist. Luckily for us, she chose a unique twist and we couldn’t be more thrilled about it! The ceremony was set against our custom floral wall backdrop complete with dramatic, dripping centerpieces. The reception was filled with tall, stunning florals accented by cascading greens, orchids and glittering Swarovski crystal pendants and strands. Simply spectacular!

Planning and executing this wedding was no easy feat. The gorgeous event space was literally created out of thin air over a cliff at a private residence in La Jolla, where stilts and a custom built platform was built and carpeted thanks to Classic Party Rentals and Victoria Weddings. The bride chose a lovely palette of plums, lavenders, ivories and fresh greens, creating a modern-garden feel.
The ceremony looked out on to the majestic Pacific Ocean, complete with an acrylic chuppah (from Arc De Belle) and tall, framing floral arrangements. We placed delicate orchids and glittering crystal strands within the beautiful structure for a bit of a glamorous twist.
We had exactly 1 hour to shift the ceremony space into this gorgeously detailed reception venue and we are still in love with the results!
What a day, what a night, what a GORGEOUS couple and what an honor it was to work with this talented team on this amazing fête!

We have been dying to share this stunner of a wedding! It was such an honor when Amy, owner of First Comes Love Weddings & Events, asked us to design the florals for her stunning seaside nuptials. With a modern palette of bright purples, lavenders, ivories, silvers and grays, we created a candle studded and crystal filled event that was the true definition of the word “glam”.
Guests stared at the gorgeous, Pacific Ocean as they watched A & E tie the knot! We framed the couple with two of our glittering crystal candelabras placed atop our ivory pillars. Large florals were placed atop each candelabra, dripping in exotic white orchids, tulips, various roses, hydrangea and other like elements. Delicate rose petals were placed down the aisle in a whimsical swirling formation. Hire elegance brought in thee amazing white custom chairs that brought the contemporary look together so beautifully.
The reception was truly breathtaking. Tall, dripping purple, lavender and ivory centerpieces placed atop crystal candelabras were carried by our custom ivory taffeta wrapped pedestals, complete with glamorous brooch accents. We hand placed petite brooches on each candle holder, adding elements of bling and sparkle. Short centerpieces were created within vintage mirrored boxes, custom wrapped in ivory taffeta and surrounded by layers of glowing candlelight in mercury glass, clear glass and crystal cut vessels. Gorgeous draping, linens and beaded charger plates by Concepts Event Design paired perfectly with A’s palette.
we fabricated a driftwood chandelier to hang above the cocktail hour lounge furniture, dripping in purple phalaenopsis orchids and glittering crystals.
A huge thank you to True Photography for getting images of all of our prettiness so perfectly!

It doesn’t get much better than helping good friends design the wedding of their dreams! I was so excited when G & K announced their engagement and came to us for design direction. She chose a neutral color palette for her reception with a mixed metallic look paired with pops of clean black and ivory. The color was brought in through the detailed bouquets and boutonnieres.
Gemma chose a very textured bouquet of over 20 varieties of flowers, branches, pods and succulents!
The ceremony took place in the San Diego Museum of Art, complete with hand crafted “blooming” silver branches.
The reception was studded with details, three types of centerpieces were placed upon three unique linen types for a very fun atmosphere.

A & A chose a soft color palette of white and cream with hints of champagne for their big day. Fragrant gardenias were paired with fluffy hydrangeas and rose blooms. 
The traditional, romantic outdoor ceremony was marked by tall manzanita branches covered in white blooms framing the entry and our dramatic ivory canopy.

We can’t help but gush over all of the fabulous details from S & J’s special day! Each element was purposefully thought up by the lovely masterminds at Luxe Events, who perfectly paired a classic white and black color scheme with fresh greens and silver accenting. True Photography beautifully captured the stunning soiree with all of the beautiful paper goods created by Brightly Designed and linens from Concepts Event Design.
The La Costa Resort & Spa was the perfect backdrop for our ivory canopy, accented with dripping, organic arrangements of soft ivory blooms and fresh greenery.
The reception was dripping in romantic candlelight and ivory floral arrangements atop our delicate silver stands and silver candelabras. Mercury glass and candle holders with black detailing surrounded the dramatic centerpieces, adding texture and superb detailing.
The bride and groom chairs were accented with a custom floral garland of ivy and spray roses.
