Tammy & Paul's Wedding at Four Seasons Biltmore

Tammy and Paul were a delight for us to work with and they enjoyed a wonderful wedding weekend at the Four Seasons in April. They entertained their guests Friday through Sunday and the Four Seasons was the perfect fit for the festivities. A special thank you to  Melissa Musgrove Photography for capturing all the lovely details from their wedding day! 

We always look forward to the time when Pottery Barn brings out all of the new spring decorations. So many gorgeous home accessories that can transform and brighten up your home. So when we were asked to participate in their bridal registry event, we jumped on the opportunity! We chose to design a table top that would work for a wedding, or your own dining table. We had such a great time playing and designing with all of their wares and are pleased to share the finished product with you! 

The Ideal Santa Barbara Destination Wedding Weekend!

When planning a destination wedding in Santa Barbara, we encourage hosting multiple events in order for your guests to really develop new friendships and to fully experience this beautiful city. This past weekend we were able to plan a series of three events for our Bride and Groom.

 In February of this year Kayla and I met only the weekend she came into town.  She and her fiance David live in Barcelona Spain.  She told me she loved great food, wine and color~she then informed me that she would not be back in Santa Barbara until five days before her wedding.  We picked out her linens together, and the rest we planned via the internet.  They were thrilled with the weekend of events we planned for them. 

 On Friday, we held a barefoot rehearsal on the beach, then transported all the guests up through wine country to Sunstone Winery for a wine tasting, and rehearsal dinner soiree.

On Saturday the guests gathered on the beach for an intimate wedding ceremony right on the water. Then walked across Cabrillo Blvd to the reception which was held at the DoubleTree. 

Then on Sunday we held a farewell brunch for the happy couple in the Plaza of Chase Palm Park. The guests gathered between 10 and 11 am and were welcomed to an omelet station, pancake station, and fruit and yogurt along with a large selection of home made danishes. 

 Mimosa's and Bloody Mary's were served and they relaxed in the beautiful setting.

We cannot wait to see the images of the wedding that Brian from BB Photography captured. 

We will share more then! 

Congratulations to Kayla and David!  

Our Vision for July 2nd Wedding~

Backyard Bridal Shower

We had the honor of hosting a lovely bridal shower for a dear friend of ours in our own backyard. When we first began dreaming of what this party might look like, we were inspired by the gorgeous Tribal Thread Linen by La Tavola. We loved the color theme of yellows and blues and began designing around the idea. Here is the inspiration board that Kaitlin had originally put together before the event:

And now, I am very pleased to share these gorgeous images from Michael & Anna Costa Photography with you of the finished product. It is truly amazing to see our designs come to life, especially when I feel we have really captured our vision.

A very special thank you goes out to Nico Designs for providing us with such abundant and lovely flower arrangements. We would also like to thank Michael & Anna Costa for sharing these stunning photos!

 This table we used as our pre~ceremony cocktail table as the guests arrived off the shuttles.  During cocktail hour it then was perfect for our sushi station. 

 Besides serving Lemon Grass Soup with Lobster Potstickers as our first course. We also passed warm malasades to the guests~ Duo Catering was amazing!

 I loved the flower arrangements designed by cody floral design~so tropical and went beautifully on the twitter pattern from la tavola linens  The two shades of blue tuscano linen runners and linens, chair pads and napkins were perfect with the bright orange flowers.

Barnaby Draper was so much fun to work with~he and his team of photographers really captured this event for us.  He also photographed the Brunch we did for this client the next day.

The pool decor by Cody Floral looked so gorgeous both in the daylight and then again at night with the lighting provided by Ambient Event Design

This was such a fun wedding with a fantastic local family in Santa Barbara.  For more images and the full story click the real wedding section on Junebug Weddings  or the link below.

What better place for an intimate, personal and casually chic wedding for this Santa Barabara couple than in the bride's parents' backyard? With help from Colette Lopez of La Fete Weddings and a team of talented professionals that the couple rave about, Katie and Wakefield's wedding was everything they had envisioned and more! Tropical touches honored Wakey's Hawaiian background, great food and wine honored Katie's profession as a person chef, family members were involved every step of the way and guest had tons of fun from beginning to end!

Inspiration for our August Bride in 2011

Photos Found Using Cooliris

Just wanted to show a sneak peak of an inspiration board we are working on for our bride in August of next year. She came to us with a color theme of turquoise, chocolate brown, and orange. We are introducing the theme of the lovebirds along with accents of Paris- which is where they will be honeymooning! I just showed this to the bride and she loved it! Getting excited to start pulling the professional team together on this!
