Brittany and Aaron are an adorable couple with a genuine joy and love. When planning their wedding at Rancho Valencia, the goal was to create an exquisite event, while allowing guests to feel comfortable and enjoy themselves.

To match the lush and luxurious atmosphere of Rancho Valencia, Blush Botanicals created a stunning bridal bouquet, which was wrapped in burlap, buttons and pearls.  A photo of Brittany’s father was also attached as a special way to honor him on her wedding day.

Birttany was escorted down the aisle by her brothers at The Village Presbyterian Church in Rancho Santa Fe. She looked stunning in her tapered lace gown from The White Dress.

After the ceremony, guests lined up on either side of the church’s entryway to celebrate the newlyweds!  In this adorable photo, you can see guests waving wands of burgundy and orange ribbon, and ushering the couple to their awaiting Rolls Royce.

The color palette for this gorgeous garden wedding included deep purple, burgundy, orange and touches of ivory.

The Croquet Lawn of the resort, with market lights draped overhead, made for a beautiful outdoor setting.  Guests were able to relax and enjoy live music provided by Wayne Foster Enterainment.

The focal point of this affair was the breathtaking head table, which had a floral runner made of fresh blooms and driftwood. The table was lined with tall-footed candle holders, wrapped with a burlap accent.

In the tree directly behind the head table, rustic lanterns were hung to create a romantic backdrop.

Lighting is always key. Tim Altbaum Productions created the perfect look by carefully stringing the lights above the guest tables. That way, guests could comfortably dine and dance outdoors in a well-lit environment.

The rain decided to grace our presence at 9:30pm, encouraging guests to move inside! Once in the ballroom, guests found that a DJ, Garrett’s popcorn and other snacks awaited them. It was a fabulous event with a warm and comfortable finale!

Estancia La Jolla Wedding with EverAfter Events

By, October 04, 2012

I recently had the opportunity to work with Anita and Michael, who were married at the Estancia Hotel and Spa. I love the Rancho style of the The Estancia Hotel in La Jolla, as well as the green gardens and overall elegance. This couple was one of the sweetest I’ve had the pleasure of working with. It was apparent to everyone that they enjoyed every moment of their day!

Anita and Michael’s pale pink and white color palette blended beautifully with the rustic brick and natural elements of the venue, as you can see in these gorgeous photos by True Photography. Take a look!

The ceremony took place in the Garden Courtyard, which was adorned with soft and feminine shades of pink by Organic Elements.

Just before Anita and her Dad walked down the grand staircase, all eyes were on this cute little ring bearer. It was so much fun to see him getting pulled down the aisle in this adorably decorated wagon!

The Estancia has a beautifully tiled staircase that leads down from the adobe buildings to the ceremony site. This allowed for the bride to make a dramatic grand entrance!

Following the ceremony, guests enjoyed spectacular drinks and appetizers just outside of the La Jolla Ballroom.

The name card table was decorated with photos of the bridal couple’s parents at their own weddings. It was also topped off by this amazing floral structure!

The room was gold toned with pale pink and white accents, which created a beautiful ambiance and a relaxed atmosphere.  Each table top was set with high centerpieces and with hanging candles to set the mood.

Watching Anita dance with her dad was so special and touching. Mr. Vishwanath had the largest smile on his face and was beaming the entire dance. So precious!

A Wedding at a Private Residence in Point Loma with EverAfter Events

By, August 01, 2012

It can be a wonderful experience creating your own wedding – and an even better experience when you have help!  At EverAfter Events, we work together with our brides and grooms to coordinate all the details, and celebrate the unique personalities of each couple.

Recently, we had the opportunity to work with Patrick and Sherry. They are an amazingly sweet couple who both just started their residencies here in town! Together with the couple, we planned the perfect wedding at Patrick’s parent’s home in Point Loma. The gorgeous antique-style decor was a perfect complement to the refined couple, and the elegant atmosphere of the day.

The ceremony space was set up in the backyard of the home, overlooking all of downtown San Diego. It was a breathtaking landscape for an intimate ceremony.

Sherry’s bridesmaids wore purple dresses that fell just below the knee, which were beautifully accented by purple and pink florals.

To change up the scenery, the couple chose to go to Balboa Park for some more bridal party and personal photos.

Gold tones were carried throughout the wedding. Gold chargers accented each place setting, as well as and personal menu cards that featured the couple’s elegant monogram. Each table was named after one of Sherry and Patrick’s favorite restaurants. What a fabulous event it was!
