Real Wedding – Mike and Michelle

admin — Mon, 18 Jan 2010 19:24:47 +0000

I love when I meet a couple for the first time and I can hear, see and feel their energy, love for each other and their optimistic outlook for the future. This is exactly how I felt the first time I talked to Mike and Michelle. They were so in love and excited to get married that is radiated all around them. They flew in from New York and we had only three days to get their wedding planning done.

The details were simple but elegant. It was a beautiful Healdsburg fall day, the colors outside were vibrant orange, red, yellow and green. The sunflowers, lilies and roses mimicked the outside natural color palette inside the barrel room. The reception was an intimate setting where Mike and Michelle could enjoy the company of their friends and family. .

I don’t think there was a second in the day that Mike or Michelle did not have a huge smile on their face. Their friends and family were able to come from all over the world to enjoy the beginning of their life together. I was honored to be a part of their wedding planning and their wedding day.

Mike and Michelle thank you for letting me be a part of your special day I thoroughly enjoyed working with you!

I was so honored to be a part of Amanda and Ted’s wedding. The ceremony was held outdoors at the beautiful Community Congregational Church of Tiburon The day was perfect, the view was amazing and the ceremony was sentimental and did not leave a dry eye in the house. The reception was held at the Mill Valley Community Center. Amanda and Ted know how to host a party and this was definitely the party of the year!

Amanda and Ted thank you for letting me be a part of your day!! I enjoyed every second of it!

Real Weddings – Jessica and Brett

I love my job. I enjoy every single wedding that I coordinate from beginning to end! Each one is special and different and leaves me with a special memory that I get to take with me to the next wedding.

I was honored when my brother-in-law and sister-in-law got engaged asked me to help them plan their wedding down in Southern California. Brett and Jessica choose an amazing venue to get married (Pine Rose Cabins). It was picturesque and breathtaking! Every detail of their wedding was thoroughly thought out down to where we placed each and every crystal throughout the ceremony and reception areas.

There were so many things that I enjoyed about this wedding, not just because it was my brother-in-laws wedding, but because of all the personal touches. The butterfly was a theme that was seen throughout their wedding. The save the dates, wedding invitations and wedding stationary all incorporated butterflies. We decided to place crystal butterflies in strategic places throughout the venue so Jessica could see them wherever she was she, but they were not so obvious that they were overdone.

Brett and Jessica’s wedding was beautiful and done on a tight budget. This is a great example of using your resources wisely and going above and beyond set expectations. I hope you enjoy the pictures.

Lacy and Tejas Wedding

Recently I worked with Lea Macintosh of Lea Macintosh Fine Events on Lacee and Teja’s wedding. Lea asked if I was interested in helping her do day of coordination for a double ceremony wedding (Indian ceremony and reception in the morning and America ceremony and reception in the evening). I of course jumped a the opportunity. I love coordinating weddings and I get giddy when it is a wedding that is unique and filled with customs and traditions!!

I have to say this was one of neatest weddings I have been to in a while. The Indian ceremony was amazing and filled with a sense of family and community. I remember thinking that a wedding and a marriage should be about everything that happened during the Indian ceremony. Lacee looked amazing the entire day!!

Michael Soo of Soo Photography was the photographer and he did an amazing job!!! There are wedding photographers and then there is Michael Soo. He captured every detail and moment of Lacee and Teja’s day! Below is a link to their wedding album I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!!
