What was I on doing on 7/7/7? Remember the TEASER blog....well this is the welcome dinner cocktail party 2 days before that wedding. Kelly Green pillows, tufted sofas and chairs, zebra pattern rugs and of course gold fish, yup, the bride had to have those....she had distinctive taste. Profile coasters of the couple set on coffee tables. And check out the grooms cake, rendition of his Tumi carry on bag with all his favorite things. Cake was created by Let Them Eat Cake It was a perfect delicious treat for the end of the evening. And yes, there are more photos from Lars but you have to check back.

Beautiful Ocean View of the Pacific from the hilltop of Laguna Beach, ballerinas dancing for the brides processional, Synchronized swimmers performing during cocktail hour and DJ AM Spinning at the after dinner party....wouldn't you want to be a guest at this wedding..stay tuned for more photos and to find out juicy details...or maybe you can bribe the amazing Withers and Wanberg Photography Team for more clips or try the event producer Christopher Aldama Fiori Fresco Special Events he may tell you more.....

Molly was a beautiful bride but her beauty readiated from within as her life mission was about saving the world and helping all in need. We partnered with Fiori Fresco who designed a perfect zen garden for Molly and Erick. Couldn't miss that Buddha or the foo dogs guarding the gates to the aisle. A 20 piece orchestra/ vocalist team singing an Enya tune guided the processional. The Montage Resort service team dressed in chinese silk jackets and serve tapioca boba tea infused with mango, kiwi and passionfruit. Dinner was even better as the menu card created by Paper-girl was perfectly presented in a chocolate brown silk box with stone beads bracelet favors for each guest. Some guests sat in red leather booths while others dined on elongated wood tables. A ying and yang gobo projection on the dance floor was the couple's symbol of balance and harmony. The enduring cherry blossom was also incorporated through out and seen on the 6 tier wedding cake made by The Cake Studio You can view their wedding video created by Elysium Productions on the DD website as well as more photos of this wedding shot by Ira Lippke on the gallery section.

I think I may becoming one of those moms that thinks their kid is the cutest in the world...okay, I am not that bad, yet! But wanted to show how beautiful my girlfriend Judy was on her wedding day, seen here with my baby girl Madison. Have to get Judy's lipstick, loved her color, she got it from her stylist at Design Visage who did her hair and makeup that day.

Michelle and Jimmy got married at the Montage Resort and Spa last summer and now featured in Bride and Bloom. What a dream, to have two All-Star photographers, Joel from Eckman Maus and Victor from VCS Photo. Michelle knew what she wanted and partnered with Nisie from Enchanted Florist to create a lush tropical scene on the Pacific Lawn. They dined and danced outside until the stars came out. The amazing videoteam was Elysium Productions and the beautiful scroll work cake was from The Great Dane Baking Company. And how lucky was I to coordinate this day for her.

Sarah and Jeff were married at Rancho Las Lomas this past spring...and of course one of the best caterers in town Craig's on the Table prepared the feast for the evening. Partnered with the one and only Nisie's Enchanted Florist for beautiful, fresh, girly centerpieces and perfect bouquets for the ladies. They partied all night as Sarah led the dance floor, boy that girl can dance, probably because Peter from Vive Entertainment mixed some great hip hop dance tunes. And last but not least, the honorable Jose Villa came down from SB to capture the day for the couple. Look at his shots of the beautiful bride Sarah, as seen here in 2 addtional outfits, a Korean "han bok" and a "chi pao" to represent Jeff's Chinese heritage. And we can't forget to credit the guys for the adorable outfits too, or should I say socks!

Andrew and Jamie decided to get married in So. Cal where Jaime grew up, a Valley girl as one would say. Romantic, modern and over the top centerpieces were produced by Jeff Johnson at Square Root. Andrew hired 2 bands from West Coast Music, the best of both, a little rock and alot of soul. Elysium Productions and Aaron Delesie were behind the scenes documenting but also directing as Aaron and Alex know all the hidden spots at the Montage Resort for the best shots. My favorite part of the night was the Father Daughter Dance,as Jamie's dad, a talented producer of MASH wrote lyrics for the song dedicated to his one and only Jamie.
