    My post about setting the mood with light inspired me to find some inspiring candlelight pictures. Doesn’t candlelight bring out the feel of romance and warmth?  Here’s some photos I... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]] ...

  • I love this vintage fashion shoot so much! It has such a cool rustic, almost thrown-together feel with all those eclectic details… and who can resist all those candles? Isn’t the light they emit just fantastic? Photographer Katelyn explains: What do you get when you put together 1 1/2 tables, 2 table-cloths, over 120 candles, 7 lanterns, 6 windows, some pretty awesome containers (jars), and some really cool books? an AWESOME outdoor photo shoot! I did a country vintage shoot that lasted through the day and into the night! It never got higher than 40 degrees but my model roughed it and did ...

  • {Photos: Top: Kivotos Club Hotel, Bottom Left: Oyster Point Hotel, Bottom Right: Mustard & Sage} If you’re planning a destination wedding somewhere near the sand, then chances are you’ll be taking advantage of the stunning outdoor setting.  Day or night, candlelight looks so lovely against the sand and sea.  Contained in hurricane glasses, lanterns, decorative bags, or hung overhead, consider lighting your aisle or marking the perimeter of your reception by the beautiful glow of candles.  Floating on water or boarding it, I just love the reflection you get in your photos!  Just be ...

    Occasionally, a client of ours comes to us with visions of adding tons of candlelight to their decor. But I often feel it is an afterthought for most. After seeing so many events come together, I can honestly say there is no easier and more effective way to create ambiance, highlight your centerpieces and add drama  than by adding more candles. I'm not talking about three little votives around a vase arrangement. My advise; imagine of the number of candles you think is appropriate and double or triple that! This is way less expensive than adding on a lighting designer or pin spotting and ...

    Earlier in June, I coordinated my first event at Pala Mesa. Located in Fallbrook, they have a beautiful ceremony site and our reception was held in an amazing tent. The tent was accented by uplighting, swags of fabric, chinese lanterns and a personalized gobo from Concepts. Jennifer Cole designed all of the flowers and included tons and tons of beautiful candlelight. The bride asked that the back end of the tent be left open so that we could add candlelight to a fountain. It looked magical as the sun set! I was so excited to work with a new amazing photographer, Michael. Congrats to the new fa...

    I’m SUPER excited that I found the perfect wedding dress!! The first store I try like six different wedding dresses, and I found it right then and there. I looked for dresses at other stores, but nothing matched my chiffon dress. It was also at an amazing price! Omg it was meant to be, guys   My mom was with me, and it was so much fun shopping and looking for MY wedding dress. The dress fit like a glove….I loved the rose on the side. What I thought was so unique about it was the design on the skirt. Little roses all over it. It’s SO pretty!! It was funny because while standing on the p...

    Yippee for Friday.  And it's not just any ol' Friday loves...it's the Friday of my birthday weekend!  Oh and you bet your buttons I am celebrating all weekend.  So happy birthday to me!  Ha.  Anyone that really knows me will probably be surprised that I just said that.  Oh things are changing around here these days...only for the better of course ;-)  I never used to make a big deal out of my birthday...always used to let it slip by, under the radar.  But as of this year I am changing that!  Because I should be celebrating me.  And you all should be celebrating yourselves...
