Monterey Bay Aquarium Wedding 5.24.09

When my ex-coworker and friend Michele told me that her mother was getting married I was delighted that she asked me to do the flowers. When she went on to tell me that it would be at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, I was ecstatic. It was such a unique place to get married and to get to see the aquarium after hours after all the other guests had left was awesome. We got to see the new sea horse exhibit with out all the traffic of the regular hours.

Steve and Annie were married right in front of the entrance of the Outer Bay and had the reception in the room with the large tank. It was breath taking! Tuan and I didn't have too much time to set-up the event (only 45 mins.) so we didn't get to take very many photos. Here are some of the pictures. I'll post more as soon as I get my hands on some.

Congrats Annie and Steve! Thanks for letting us share in your joy!

Claremont Country Club Wedding

The Memorial Day weekend started off with Yvette and Jonathan's lovely wedding at the Claremont Country Club in Oakland. They were married in the ballroom right in front of the fireplace, which evoked a romantic vintage feel.

As I was setting up, my husband Tuan took some lovely photos of the flowers I designed for Yvette and Jon. Yvette loved the mauve and sage tones of Old Dutch roses and used it as inspiration for her wedding colors. In her bridal bouquet, the Old Dutch roses were paired with the antiqued lavender of the Amnesia roses, which worked well with blush mini cala lilies, white cymbidium orchids, and vendela roses. The galax leaves around the collar of the the bouquets really complimented the colors well. I was in love with the pair of kissing balls that I made for her adorable flower girl. I can't wait to see more pictures from her wedding.

Congratulations Yvette and Jon!!

More pictures from Lana's party.

Pinkalicious!

My friend Lana invited a few ladies over to her house for a "pinkalicious" baby shower for her soon to arrive baby girl. The food was awesome and the details were so cute in pink and green. Oh, and the cupcake....TO DIE FOR! I brought Lana two floral arrangements one for her buffet spread and the other for her coffee table which Sabrina of Sabrina Wong Photography captured beautifully along with the other cute details like the favors, cupcakes, and the menu and tags Lana created. Congratulations Lana!
