Ashley + Manny = Engaged

One of my best friends is getting married and I couldn't be happier. I had the pleasure of photographing their engagement session and chose to shoot them at Hatfield Orchids in Oxnard, CA. A perfect backdrop for a beautiful couple.

All the best to Ashley and Manny!

Happy Monday.

Cannot believe that we are in March. The past few months have flown by! And they have been filled to the brim with fun wedding events.

Today though, I had a surprise email waiting for me in my inbox letting me know that the wedding that Melanie and I had stylized ourselves is featured on The Collection Event Studio's blog. Eeeehh!! We are thrilled and so honored.
Also, have I mentioned lately how much I love my job? I get to hang out with people who are so in love and vendors who LOVE what they do. It doesn't get any better.

happy monday!

Utterly Engaged shin dig.

I had so much fun last night at the Utterly Engaged party. There were 13 talented groups that collaborated to create a sweetheart table. The winner will be announced March 19th in the next issue of UE mag. I met a lot of super passionate vendors who love what they do and it shows. Looking forward to the Cream event tonight to meet some more.
There were some really great color palette ideas and I loved the painted succulents on table #13 and the sequined table cloth on the Cupcakes and Cutlery team table. I'm sold on anything with glitter or sequins on it.  I thought the Gather table had a really ambitious way to present their cake. It was beautiful. And if you were wondering, yes that is a flower sushi roll. Amazing!! (made by Bride and Bloom who was teamed with the Itty Bitty Party Committee table.) The IBPC gals also know how to make numerous animal origami and they enjoy doing it. :)

Cheers!
