Winter Wonderland???

Here in California, it is a little hard to believe that winter is happening. The weather is just great...

But elsewhere in the world, snowflakes and icicles abound. So here are some design ideas on fabulous and frosty winter weddings. Happy planning!

Winter themed weddings are great for playing with mediums other than flowers. Branches and trees with white blossoms, lights or even just sprayed a playful color give a winter theme an added edge, bringing the outside in. 

You can have a lot of fun with color schemes at this time of year too. I love the traditional holiday colors of red and green, seeing how couples have used this palette without it feeling like they stole decorations from the Christmas tree!

Baby shower!

Our banquet room isn't just the perfect place for a wedding, it's also an amazing location for a shower. 
We celebrated these soon to be parents this past weekend with a co-ed baseball themed party. They are huge Dodgers fans. I guess we can't all be Giants fans......



Love the cake by the wonderful Cake Expressions. Best lemon cake in the world! 

The proud parents to be.

Not soon enough! Hurry up Nolan, we can't wait to meet you!

New Year, New Trends....

Wedding Trends 2015

This article covers the newest trends for this coming wedding season. The most anticipated part of this article is of course Pantone's announcement of the color  of the year, Marsala Red. 

It looks as though we will be seeing a continuation of the rustic outdoors themes, even with a slight change towards western and leather, instead of burlap. So don't worry if you already had your rustic theme picked out, you can still be right on trend with a few adjustments. :)

It's nice to see that wedding apps are really making things easier, every little helps, right? 

Will you stick to trends for your wedding, or do you prefer to stand out from the crowd and start trends of your own?  I know I am excited to see what all of my clients do this year.
