Tulika + Oleg | Palmdale Estates | Bay Area Wedding

I loved working with Tulika on her wedding. She was so sweet, easy to work with and very organized - a planner's favorite kind of bride! She hired me to help her design her wedding and execute her vision on wedding day.  She had a color scheme in mind - teal, rich pink colors and gold. One of our favorite design elements was the sequins linens in teal and gold for cocktail hour. We added touches of mercury glass votive candles to the tables, along with gold charger plates topped with caramel popcorn favors for each guest. Nona, from Floral Design Studio, did a beautiful job creating the centerpieces with all the right color elements we had discussed. Everything turned out so beautiful and I was so happy to see the bride's vision come to life. Congratulations to Tulika and Oleg! xoxo

Tracy + Bryon | Private Residence | Los Gatos Wedding

Tracy and Bryon's wedding was so sweet. It was held at Bryon's parents' beautiful home in the Los Gatos mountains. I worked closely with Bryon's mom, Laurie, during the wedding planning and I met Tracy and Bryon about a month before their big day. They are such a cute couple and such nice people. Although there are a lot of logistics to think about when planning a wedding at someone's home, it was fun to work with both sides of the family to put together such a joyous occasion. I really wanted them to be able to enjoy the wedding day and not worry about all the work that goes into a home wedding. The wedding was a success thanks to an amazing team of vendors and two very sweet families. Congratulations to Tracy and Bryon!

Melody + Billy | Kaua'i Marriott Resort | Hawaii Destination Wedding

This post is extra special to me because it's my sister's wedding! My sister and her husband wanted something simple and fun for their big day so they ended up choosing a destination wedding in Kaua'i, Hawaii. Nothing hits home more than planning your sister's wedding and working with family to plan a big event. After they picked a venue, my sister let me take charge of everything else - flowers, decor, timeline, etc. Melody and Billy wanted wanted their wedding to feel very personal and warm which is why they chose to have my father officiate their ceremony and had my brother and Billy's brother emcee the reception. This was definitely a family affair! I had a few hats to wear that day and there was definitely a lot to manage, but seeing Melody and Billy happy and stress-free on their wedding day made it all worth it. Their wedding day was perfect! We are so lucky to have such amazing family and friends who traveled to Hawaii to see this lovely couple tie the knot. Congratulations Melody and Billy!! xoxo
