With vintage design a hot wedding trend, Thanksgiving is the perfect holiday to leverage this direction. This Thanksgiving, create a beautiful tabletop inspired by your Grandma’s antique china; consider incorporating colored jars or utilizing vintage-like materials such as burlap, brown string, tweed and wheat! Here’s some inspiration to get your creative juices flowing….

As you can imagine, running a wedding day-of keeps you on your toes. In fact, I am always so focused on the details and logistics of the day, that there are times I need to stop myself and really enjoy the moment, something we’ve worked so hard with the client to make happen. For me…I always pause to enjoy the bride going down the aisle and the Father/Daughter Dance…these are always tear jerking moments for me. And at the end of the day, when I watch my clients dancing with their family and friends, I love to see them let loose and truly enjoy their wedding celebration.
Here are some fun photos sent to me by the talented Michael at Forever True Photography.
Hard at work…

Happy clients…

Sending my well wishes for a Happy 1st Anniversary to Diana & Andrew! Just thinking back on their beautiful wedding at the Castle Green and The Rococo Room in Pasadena…check out some fun details from their wedding that was inspired by the Fall season and its vibrant color palette.
