Sneak Peek of Wedding at the Biltmore Santa Barbara!

Here is a sneak peek from one of the fabulous events we did this weekend. Kathryn and Chris celebrated their marriage at the beautiful Four Seasons Resort The Biltmore in Santa Barbara this past weekend. The decor was all about the PURPLE!!!! With such great vendors and venue this wedding was absolutely beautiful. A special thanks to Lindsay from LVL Events and all the other wonderful vendors.

Biltmore Fashion Shoot..amazing images!

We had the pleasure of being asked to participate in a bridal gown photoshoot last month! We love helping our photographers out to help spice up the color of the image through flowers.  

We asked Ron and George, the talented photographers what their inspriation was and here is what they said " The inspiration for this shoot came from wanting to show case the beauty of the Biltmore while having fun being creative and doing things for the sake of art on our own time frame, in contrast to a wedding day where you have to run on the time line of the event and client. "

 This shoot was a collaboration between Ron Levy Photographers  and George Taverna Photography and together we were able to make the Biltmore come alive!

SYED at Pacific Palms Resort's Quiceanera and Sweet 16 Expo

This was no ordinary decor for the Pacific Palms Resort's Quinceañera & Sweet 16 Expo! Hello Kitty themed, we turned the ballroom into a chic, hot pink, black and white party. The expo was tailored specifically to 15 and 16 year old girls, therefore we wanted to have our girly fun with the decor. Simple but dramatic, white hydrangea hang ties were placed in high vases and accented with huge bows where mirror runners and black finials aligned the long tables. Candelabras were added to tables and chandeliers were hung from our sheer hot pink room dividers. Hot pink vases, Hello Kitty pillows and bubbles for the guests to enjoy were placed in lounge areas where the bar was backed with a custom made Hello Kitty decal, to which colorful hand made paper flowers added just enough dimension. Fun and fabulous I must say!
