Ian and Abby rolled up in their wedding attire freshly pressed, a little pink in the cheeks from all the attention they were getting. A pristine 1959 Eldorado Biarritz will do that to you. Ian’s family personally restored the Biarritz to tip top show condition and it was the perfect addition to their rock the dress session.
We were quite excited to take part in the upscale Wedding Party Bridal Show held at The Omni hotel this spring. It is always fun to plan and design our booth, from ordering new prints to actually building collapsable walls (Brett does the building). I actually enjoy attempting to build things but it always seems to end the same way with Brett shaking his head and chuckling at my poorly engineered contraption. He then has to step in and probably spend more time fixing than it would take him to build from scratch. But I have him beat hands down when it comes to crafting skills.
The Bridal show was an exciting day. We met a lot of really great couples and loved having the time to chat with them. I think meeting new people is one of Brett’s favorite aspect of theses kinds of shows.
Our booth was right across from Seaside Papery and we absolutely LOVED their set up. It was just so colorful and their invitations are so elegant and tasteful. I so wanted to take their little striped tent home with me. Wouldn’t that just be amazing at the beach. One of my favorite parts of their booth set up was the letter press wedding cake.Super cute wedding favor boxes in all shapes, sizes and colors. Now I just need to finde more excuses to package little tiny things. Hum.We were in awe of all the detail Andrea from A Diamond Celebration put into her inspiration tablescape featured in the Bridal Bar section of the show.Vintage style china is stealing my heart at the moment.Loved the pink and white rose bouquet that matched this elegant table set up. Michael and Denise have some seriously fun props for the Foto Box, and I have to admit that I have major mustache on a stick envy.Loved Alicia’s beautiful booth for Younique Weddings.San Diego Candy Buffet had two really cute table set ups.

I just love the little owl broach pinned to the bouquet. It just adds an extra fun bit of detail.
For two romantics like ourselves, Valentine’s Day definitely ranks high on our list of holidays. From sneaking around trying to get each other something special(which if you run your business with your significant other can be a true challenge); to lining up an order of flowers. Or making each other homemade cards and finding fun little gifts that say I love you in the smalest and most subtle ways. All those little things that lead up to the afternoon activity: should we go to the beach, to the mountains, or just curl up by the fire and watch a movie together??? Decisions, decisions. Well of course doing an impromptu little shoot never hurt either. Enjoy our little fun shoot and we wish you and yours a very happy and love filled Valentine’s Day! Um Blooper Alert!I’m thinking this one might be our Lady and the Tramp moment.Just imagine the face Brett is giving me. There are so many it could have been.
