Brilliant Yellow with Black at the Jones Victorian Estate

Hi!

The brilliant pop of yellow is amazing for Stacy teamed with our Ralph Lauren Black floral linens!

See how beautiful the combination was!

A special and big thank you to Kim and Jeray Photography!

Centerpieces were a wow factor!

We added black candelabras with crystals and the table design was complete! Thank you to Flower Allie of Fullerton for an amazing job with the flowers.

Seating for the wedding with yellow accents with crystals hung from our shepherd's hooks!

And the wedding arch... covered in orchids, roses,  gerbras with black crystals  for that breathtaking backdrop.

The Bride and Groom's sweetheart table with a white candelabra!

And the three flower girls taking a moment on our swing...

The gorgeous Stacy!

What is your dream? Do you have one? Let's find out and have fun!

Ladders for Wedding Decoration?

Hi!

Are you looking for some fun with your decorations? 

Would you entertain the idea of using ladders for your wedding?

They are rustic and woodsy. They give heigth and texture. They are a perfect backdrop for displays.

In a word, yes!

A ladder may be dressed up with a fresh coat of white paint (or color!) and some fun jewels for that sparkle Bride. 

A ladder may be paired with another for a table... the possibilities of endless. 

Here are a few examples of what we did! 

Jessica used our ladder as a fun decorative addition for the bar. We included photos of her with the Groom, their families and friends to bring out their party side of wedding planning!

 What better place than at the Bar, right? 

It was a conversation piece as well as a warm tribute!

Here, Ashley and James agreed to add the ladder with a touch of color with blue canning jars, flowers and another crate filled with flowers and plants for a special accent piece.  An old wooden tray was added to the top so their monogram "B" would bounce!

 This spot was screaming for attention so the ladder and crate design was a perfect. 

I hope you can enjoy your wedding planning process. Because, isn't that what it is all about?

Let's get together!

Another Favorite!

Hi!

A couple of days ago, I posted my favorite picture from Greg and Erin Wright's wedding

 but I stand corrected!

I love two or three or ... gosh, they are wonderful. 

A big shout out to Marcella Treybig Photography for supplying me with "my favorite" precious photos. (more on the next post)

This is my favorite, really I mean it! It looks like it should be on a magazine cover! Right?!

 I sent it off the image to the "Vows Magazine" to see what they think! 

This really is a great shot! Erin and Greg look amazing AND the dogs are perfect! The dogs each are wearing their floral wreaths, they are looking right at the camera and if you look really close, 

they are smiling for the camera!

This is a keeper!

G  R  E  A  T      J  O  B Marcella!!

More to come....

Hi!

Are you looking for something fun and well, just adorable as a special accent piece?

I found a photograph of a heart and thought how perfect it would be to be cut out of a wooden crate! It's just a special rustic creation for any wedding!

I just love it and although it was taken by my camera, I can hardly wait

for the professional ones. 

I enjoy the little details that when added up, they create a whole look that is precious!

Enjoy the process!

From my heart to yours!

My Favorite Shot! the Jones Victorian Estate (714) 343-1964

Hi!

It's that time again when I go through the photos from a wedding and pick out my favorite!

Here it is from Carissa and Lee Artavia's wedding!

Why is this my favorite?

This is the first time any photographer has captured the Bride and her Father as they enter the ceremony site  from this angle.

I have the Pastor asked everyone to please  remain seated until the Mother of the Bride stands for the Bride. 

And it worked!

The guests are seated as she enters the courtyard, so Lee is able to be the first to see his Bride!

The guests turn and wait until Carissa and her father reach the designated spot, and then everyone stands!

It's all about the presentation!!!

I simply love this shot!

Thank you again to Gina and Ryan Photography. Well done!

Love,

Michelle Gregory
