Holiday Homes Tour 2009

Well We pulled off another beautiful Holiday Homes Tour!

What a week! I'm pretty sure I had N1H1 since Friday and there were moments that I though there was no way this job could get done, but some how we pulled it off. Huge thanks to my Mom & Lorraine with whom this could not been possible!

It was great collaborating with Designers Karen Wittich, Lynn Sealy , Maureen- Tabula Rasa and Melissa the Sand Pipers home facilitator was a dream to work with.

If you in the Manhattan Beach Area this weekend, it's a great tour & all proceeds go to local charity's

Feeling inspired tonight. Want to get this blog rolling...........

Here are Here are Daisy Varleys Amazing photos of Matt & Kristen's Wedding that took place on September 12, 2009 in Temecula

They are a match made in heaven. I have known Matt since he was in High School. He use to come in and pick out flowers for his prom dates. (most boys sent their mom's) He is the sweetest, kind, witty, guy you could ever imagine. When I met Kristen for the first time, I know right away they were meant for each other. These two have the greatest spirit! I really don't need to say more, because the photos tell it all.

Check Out Daisy's web site, she is super talented!www.daisyvarley.com

Kristina & Brian Sunday Nov. 22

Shade Hotel Manhattan Beach-

This was a small but fun job for me. I only took care of the Bridal party flowers, but they were pretty cool.

Kristina asked to have black feathers incorporated, this is what we came up with...

Bridesmaids had a single type of flower from the bridal bouquet with black feathers surrounding.

Kristinas' bouquet was super Sexy I loved that she went for the black satin stem wrap

So this wedding season is winding down, Keep your eyes on the blog for the best of 2009. I had a lot of amazing events this year and will post photos in the next few weeks.
