South Coast Winery's Bridal Open House

South Coast Winery had their Fall Bridal Open House on October 11, 2009. For this Open House we were set up in a separate part of the Grand Ballroom which was set with beautiful leather lounge furniture. This is definitely a growing trend in the industry! Along with a Martini Luge, this was a gathering point at the end of a successful day!

Erin & Thomas at the Summit House

Erin & Thomas were married March 7, 2009 at the Summit House in Fullerton. With the wedding colors of Pool Blue and Chocolate, Erin chose to use flowers colors of Light Blue, White, and Shades of Lavender. Erin carried a beautiful bouquet of Light Blue Hydrangea, White Freesia, and White Roses. Erin & Thomas chose to use wedding cakes as their centerpieces! Each table had a different cake stand with a single layer cake with coordinating flowers. With all those cakes, the room smelled absolutely delicious!!

South Coast Winery Bridal Open House

This past Sunday, we participated in our first Bridal Open House at the South Coast Winery in Temecula. This is such a beautiful Wedding & Ceremony location! If you are still looking for the perfect location, I would definitely check this one out! Pictured, are just a few of the favorite bouquets that we had on display that day.

Sara & Torin at Eagle Glen Golf Course

Sara & Torin were married June 28, 2008 at Eagle Glen Golf Course. I can't believe how hot it already is this summer! This Saturday was quite HOT! At least there was a slight breeze, but not so much that it was blowing the chairs over! Sara's bouquet of Cream Roses, Stephanotis, and Lavender Freesia was wrapped with pieces from her Mother's veil. We used the pearl encrusted lace headpiece around the stems of the bouquet, then we made a bow with the tulle fabric. We don't see many brides wear their mother's wedding dress, so this is a nice was to incorporate that "something old" into the wedding! The Maid of Honor and Bridesmaids carried bouquets of Lavender & Purple that included Roses, Spray Roses, Alstroemeria, Stock, Miniature Carnations, Freesia, and Lisianthus. With Eagle Glen having such a large reception room, having the centerpieces alternate high and low gave the impression a room full of flowers!

Karen & Dennis at Eagle Glen Golf Course

Karen & Dennis were married May 25, 2008 at Eagle Glen Golf Course in Corona. Karen carried a hand tied Biedermeier style bouquet of Lavender Calla Lilies, Cream Roses, and Green Cymbidium Orchids. The Bridesmaids carried mixed bouquets of Roses, Stock, Bells of Ireland, Lisianthus, Freesia, Button Mums, and mini Cymbidium Orchids in Lavenders and Light Greens. Along with fresh flowers, we draped Ivory Chiffon to dramatically change the basic arch provided by Eagle Glen. My favorite part of this wedding had to be the aisle! The bride proved us green golf baskets, which we lined with fresh moss and filled with fresh Hydrangea in White, Pale Green, and Purple. This was a great way to incorporate the golf course into the wedding, rather than ignore it completely. The centerpieces were alternating high and low continuing the color theme of the wedding. Karen & Dennis purchased all of the urns and vases used so that their guests could take the whole centerpiece, instead of just the flowers, as a gift at the end of the reception.

Amy & Bernard at Green Mountain Ranch

Amy & Bernard were married May 17, 2008 at Green Mountain Ranch in Lytle Creek. This unseasonably hot weather could have been a problem for an outdoor ceremony and reception! But being that Green Mountain Ranch is location deep in a canyon, it was much cooler than the outlying areas! The wedding colors of Lavenders, Purple, and White went along nicely with the greenery of all the trees. Amy's spring bouquet of Roses, Freesia, Lisianthus, Sweet Peas, and Misty Blue was perfect for this "country" style wedding! The flower spray decorating the gazebo was also used to decorate the bride and groom's sweetheart table. The centerpieces of Lavender & White were Stargazers, Stock, Alstroemeria, Miniature Carnations, Lisianthus, Mums, Roses, Statice, and Misty Blue surrounding a tall cylinder candle.

Jennifer & John at the San Diego Marriott

Jennifer & John were married March 15, 2008 at San Diego Marriott. Jennifer is an Event Coordinator who I did an event for last year! Talk about pressure! Out of her many choices I had to be sure to prove that she made the correct choice in choosing us for her wedding day! Their ceremony was on a four story rooftop overlooking the marina! The view was just amazing. Her colors of purple, lavender and whites showed beautifully on the the site provided arch. Her centerpieces were in her same wedding colors in an antique ivory urn. I received a wonderful email from her the day after her wedding...
