Art Deco Wedding Day at Rancho Bernardo Inn

Understated elegance was what this day was all about.  A stunning garden courtyard was the perfect location for an intimate ceremony with an art deco backdrop.  The wedding party then moved into one of the ballrooms at Rancho Bernardo Inn which we decorated with candles, elevated candelabras, and delicate bud vases each holding their own selection of textural blooms.

Del Sur Ranch House Wedding with Petula Pea and Nicole George Events

Blooms-breesa-san-diego-florist-del-sur-ranch-house-nicole-george-events-Wedding-Petula-Pea-Photography107.jpg

Such a lovely day in San Diego.  This combo of pastels and bold pops of color is something I would do over and over again! Del Sur Ranch House offers the most beautiful and intimate setting while maintaining sweeping views of San Diego's rolling hills.  Sweet shots of the couple in the family's close-by vineyard give such a memorable experience.  And of course, a day couldn't be so perfect without a wonderful team. Thank you Nicole George, Patty of Petula Pea, and Coast Catering for once again delivering a wonderful design and fantastic end result.

Vista Valley Country Club Wedding

OOH - one of my favorite San Diego venues.  This place is a serious dream especially if you like garden ceremonies and grand European buildings.  From the bridal suite to the cocktail bar to the ballroom with the grand wooden hearth - it's seriously stunning and each detail is spectacular.  Here I have my favorite photos for my fall wedding with Leif Brandt and Kelsey Rae Designs.  If you're considering Vista Valley Country Club as your wedding venue - book it! And seriously give me a call because I'm obsessed with flowering this place up.  

Wedding Inspiration in the Meadow

After being asked to participate in a bridal inspiration shoot styled by Blush and Adore and photographed by Acres of Hope Photography I knew the final product was going to be exactly what they are - STUNNING.

Such a lovely day working with some of my favorite vendors at this sweet outdoor wedding in La Jolla.  The Darlington House is such an elegant and intimate venue.  I love every chance I get to flower up their amazing grounds!

The photos by Fog and Dawn came back beautifully! Such sweet moments and details were captured and there are just so many great backdrops on the property at Darlington.  Nicole George left no detail unturned and added so many personal touches to Katie and Jack's day!
