Ashley & Nick - Private Estate, Tustin CA









Today I woke up thinking exactly what I have been thinking for the last 4 days...I really need to blog about Ashley and Nicks wedding there were so many details that I know people would love to hear about...along with getting it off my chest! Today is the day ladies and gentlemen!
To start off, I was amazed when I first heard from Ashley so far out from the big day, these days its rare to hear from brides early on....I promise not to blame the economy however.....

Ashley and Nick have been dating for over 7 years and on a trip to Mexico Nick popped the question to a plaid pajama wearing Ashley in the sand at midnight, needless to say she said YES! and the planning began!

I met with her and her mother at the grooms parents home in the hills of Tustin where Ashley and Nick had decided to host there big day. I was reluctant at first to see the space as home weddings can be a bit difficult and costly but yet so intimate and beautiful....bittersweet! After the initial consultation and a walk around the property I turned to the mother of the groom and said "did you build this house and backyard for a wedding?" it was perfect! I mean perfect! the ceremony area was on a completely different side then the reception and you couldnt even see the two! amazing!

The wedding came almost too fast and before I knew it I was wearing an all black outfit in 93 degree weather hauling chivari chairs back and forth while my cell phone blared the worst ring tone(now). The wedding was amazing, the lighting was even more amazing and the floral design was stunning, it was almost as if all the stars had aligned with the vendors minds when we helped create this event.

I must...I must as long as this blog is give a special thank you to not only the wonderful, and prompt vendors aboard but to my amazing girls on my team, I have never been more proud to know you and to have you apart of my growing business you truly rocked it out!
