Autumn Wedding

Romantic Autumn Wedding

Sandra and Robert

Facebook reunited high school friends 15 years after graduating. Sandra and Robert tied the knot in a romantic ceremony at the Huntington Hotel in Pasadena celebrating merger of their two heritages, Irish and Honduran.

Sandra was a gorgeous bride. Her mantilla veil framed her spanish lace wedding gown. A shoe lover she had three pairs ready to go to slip into for the evenings festivities: Ceremony Shoes, Cocktail Shoes and Dancing Shoes.

Their fall wedding was designed to highlight the rich sophisticated hues of the season with deep reds and gold. Red Roses adorned the bridge where they were surrounded by lifetime friends.

A flamenco trio performed during the cocktail hour where guests sipped signature cocktails, The Irish Charm and The Spanish Rose. Escort Cards stood in a box of roses.

Doors opened for world champion claddah dancers who pied pipered the bride and groom’s grand entrance followed by world renowned flamenco guitarist and dancer.

The couples wedding cake included the Celtic band. The grooms cake featured an Irish crest. A special touch by the bride were monogrammed boxes so guests could take a slice of wedding cake home.

"Michele is the BEST wedding planner on the planet, not just LA! " - Sandra

Celebrity Wedding Celebration

Niecy Nash and Jay Tucker

On May 28, 2011, Niecy Nash said "I DO," to Jay Tucker at Church Estate Vineyard in Malibu in front of 200 guests and nearly five million viewers who tuned in for the two-hour wedding special. The wedding recieved honors on TLC's "Top 10 Weddings of 2011" ranking #6.

Upon arrival guests were greeted with gourmet lemonade as they enjoyed the scenic views in Malibu. Charmed with performances from close friends including Ledici, Jenifer Lewis Frenchie Davis and Abraham McDonald, the romantic ceremony brought laughter and tears.

Guests enjoyed wine pairings in the vineyard as horses grazed in the open field for an enchanting cocktail reception.

Drapes opened to reveal a gorgeous dinner reception. Orchids were hanging from the branches above tables with lavender organza overlays on platinum satin linens ornated with tall crystal pedistool centerpiecs with roses and orchids intermixed with crystal studded arrangements.

Following dinner, a French Guitarist serenaded the guests as they followed an enchanting path to a hidden Swan Lake where Niecy and Jay danced to "At Last" sung by Brandy Norwood.

As Niecy slipped into her party dress, guests were escorted to the dance tent, which was decked with an LED chandelier above a five-tier crystal studded wedding cake. Guests enjoyed a candy station, photo booth and most of all, the dance floor.

"Thank you for the best wedding a girl could ask for!"

Fantasy Wedding

"Thank you it was above and beyond what I ever expected," - Rob Dyrdek

Celebrity Wedding To Be Seen on "Fantasy Factory"

Denise and Jayson

Rob Dyrdek, known from this point forward as the best brother in the world, contacted our office to have us coordinate every detail of his sister's wedding to the love of her life. The funny twist was that Rob was excited to be the minister and became ordained to make this dream wedding come true.

His sister Denise was probed for a couple of key wishes but the exciting part was we were able to design a wedding just for her. 90% of everything was a surprise on the wedding day.

Most importantly, Rob wanted the wedding at the Fantasy Factory so we had to build a tent inside his 20,000' warehouse bringing a feminine touch to this testosterone icon.

We built a tent inside and draped every inch in white chiffon. During the ceremony we kept the look clean and whte. My favorite part was a frosted mirrored aisle for the bridal march. Just behind the ceremony miniature mirrors were twinkling as they captured light.

During cocktails we transformed the ceremony space into an elegant dinner reception. We used pink lighting to change the hue of the room. We placed the wedding cake where the ceremony had taken place. A white dance floor was in the center stage.

The buffets paired food and drink: Sushi and Sake , Salmon and Martinis, Burgers and Mircrobrews, and Filet and Wines. Guest had fun sipping and nibbling the night away.

Pelican Hill Wedding

Pelican Hill Wedding Celebration

Nattita and Chad

A Gorgeous celebration for a gorgeous couple. I just love Chad and Nattida and feel blessed to have been invitd to plan the wedding, the second wedding planned for the family. This lovely couple embraced the love that every couple should share and passed int on through their friendships and chairty. Instead of wedding gifts they grciously suggested donations to an orphanage they opened in Thailand.

The day began with a traditional tea ceremony uniting the two families. The granduer of Pelican Hill then transfomed into a gorgeous cermeony overlooking the ocean. I just loved that the bride choose yellow and gray for the colors. Yellow is one of my favorite colors and absolutley charming.

Following th rception guests were treated to His & Her Cocktails in martini glasses infused with dry ice. The doors opened for a fun a night of fun and celebration. The bridal party made their grand entrance decked out in silly props that would later be available at the flip book photo booth.

Guests had a blast on the dance floor working off the enormous feast and gigantic dessert station.

Congratulations to Chad & Nattida for their beautiful baby girl who arrived just in time for their one year anniversary.

Stone Manor Wedding

Bianca and Chad

Such a sweet young couple with so much to look forward to in their life together. We were honored to coordinate this wedding for this very busy young couple who had to move to Vermont the day after the wedding so Bianca could begin Med school.

This celebration with all of their closest friends and family was a tribute to their relationship. They were the happpiest couple who loved to laugh. I wish I could translate the fun mood and spirit of this wedding through the pictures. One of my favorite details was including their pet dog as the ring bearer which showed their love for animals.

We begin with the escort cards which we placed in a box filled with sand, a perfect touch for this ocean view wedding. Guests were greated with rice crackers and lemonade.

The ceremony was followed with a lovely formal dinner by celebrity chef, Celestino Drago which featured Surf and Turf for the entree. The bride and groom graciously went table to table to thank their guests for coming.

Then the fun began, in a back beach house we set-up an after party dance room. Bianca changed into her dance shoes and we were all suprised by Chad's hip-hop moves. A flash mob of back-up dancers appeared as all of the groomsmen joined the dance floor.
