I am a pretty affectionate person. I love hugs and I usually greet people with a kiss on the cheek. I miss seeing people and hugging them. But in the meanwhile, you’re all in my heart and prayers. And I’ll give my kids and husby all the hugs and kisses for all of you. I hope you’re all doing well and socially distancing. Let’s get through this together and then we can party and hug all we want. In the meanwhile, drink wine, coffee and make the most of what we’ve got. Let’s support the small businesses and be kind to one another. See you all on the other side!

I gotta say, I love this impromptu portrait by the awesome at the networking event tonight. I’ve been going to more networking events the last couple of years and I love the attitude and values that vendors have in these groups that I’ve joined. I’ve met so many great new friends and have had the honor to work with some of them. Hope to continue collaborating with you all!

Shoutout to for this awesome dress!

I was helping a client shop for wedding gowns and it made me totally nostalgic about my wedding dress shopping experience. When I got married in 2007, the biggest trend was the ballgown style gowns with pickups, so naturally I wanted one of a similar style. I brought my very opinionated aunts whose opinions I highly respect and showed them my first choice dress. The first thing Auntie Elaine says is, “It looks like a comforter.” I was totally heartbroken, but fortunately, within the same shopping trip, I fell in love with the gown I ultimately purchased with incredibly detailed beadwork. I’m a super detailed person so it actually makes sense that I’d appreciate a gown like this one. I still admire all the beading whenever I see it in the depths of my closet. If I could still fit in it, I’d totally wear it more often... at least around the house. 🤣 Feel free to swipe to see what my gown might have been. I still think it’s pretty, but I’m glad my aunt steered me toward the gown that was truly meant for me. Tip of the day: trust your tribe who knows you to be a good mirror.

Hello springtime! My mother loves lavender and every time I find an awesome candle, I get her a lavender one. Last time was a soy candle made by from recycled wine bottles from and the fragrance was so lovely! I kept a sweet peach scented one for myself and I just might have to order more.

This lovely springtime centerpiece was brought to you by with the fresh lavender handcut by family friends of the bride. I loved the rustic romance of this whole look and the perfect embodiment of the promise of spring and new beginnings.

Fusion of cultures come together in a beautiful way at this wedding. The combination of the geometric pieces along with the softness of the draped silk runner is so romantic yet with such uniqueness and interest that draws us in. Everything about this wedding came together so harmoniously!
Tap for the awesome vendor team!

Happy (I’m a little late)! My grandmother was a poet, a business owner, raised 9 children, and was the most put-together, well-coiffed woman I knew growing up. My mother was an HR and training executive in a hospital in the Philippines, came to another country without a job or a clear path to how to make a new life for her young family. Their courage and trailblazing is one I aspire to, and I hope that I’m building a life that they can be proud of.

Every 3 seconds, a girl - some as young as 8 or 9 years old (Lily’s age!) - is forced to be married. 12 million girls are forced into marriage without their consent before 18 years old. Child marriages robs girls of their futures, puts them at risk for violence, and traps them in the cycle of poverty.
With every ring selfie posted until October 11 with the hashtag , $1 will be donated to end child marriage

Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like on
A-Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby, kiss me!

Fill my heart with song and let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you!
~ Frank Sinatra

I love when my weddings have a unique flair. And can you say flair with a helicopter grand entrance?!

I have to say, this was an amazing collaboration with a fantastic team that was assembled. Everyone was an expert in their own field and we played off each other’s strengths to bring all the elements together beautifully. We weren’t superheroes or anything, but it was one of the best examples of teamwork I’ve experienced.

Love how the room got dressed up with just a few jumbo balloons with palm branch accents! Some small floral arrangements added the perfect touch to tie it all together.

Sometimes decor doesn’t have to be so elaborate to make a big impact. This palm branch from my own garden added the perfect touch to the jumbo balloon for this Cuban tropical themed party! So feminine and fun!

Meditation labyrinth: walk the path and as you walk, think about your life’s journey - where you currently are, where you’ve been, and where you wish to be. Take the time to thank the Lord, your God, the universe, for all your blessings and challenges, for these make you who you are and who you will be.

On this gloomy, rainy day, I’m dreaming of beautiful sunny outdoor weddings, like this one at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu, California. Real sprigs of lavender harvested from a friend’s garden, muted florals and lots of greenery adorned every aspect of this gorgeous day.

Raise your glass to this gorgeous couple! It was a delicious and beautiful reception at and I told you, her gown would be amazing! Love the lace bell sleeves, especially cuz it was reminiscent of my own mom’s bell sleeved wedding gown. Much love and happy blessings to my cousin and her handsome and lucky groom!

The days have been so chilly (for us Southern Californians anyway), but even an outdoor wedding can be cozy by providing pashminas for the ladies in your guestlist, simply draped over the ceremony chairs. It’s a fantastic way to have a thoughtful giveaway that your guests will cherish and remember you by when they use it again and again!

Rehearsal time for my darling cousin! It is such an honor of mine to do my work for my loved ones and I can’t wait to see her as a gorgeous bride! And seriously, if her rehearsal dress is any indication of how styled out her bridal gown will be, I absolutely can’t wait to see her in it!

Be my valentine! Thanks to for the cute mini cookies!

02/19/2018

My darling little boy’s Valentine-themed 1st birthday party was today! Valentine’s Day has always been my favorite holiday so I loved putting together these details. built this awesome kissing booth and I have to thank my friends and family for cooking, helping set up, pick up food, and generally helping make this celebration a success! I got emotional as I thanked everyone for coming just before we said grace because as I was sorting through pictures of Ethan from his first year of life last night, I recalled all the emotions of this journey. From the joy and loss of Baby Hope a few years ago, to experiencing the ultimate pain and triumph of birthing Ethan sans epidural, and then to his scary first 3 days as he was readmitted for severe jaundice, and then going through the first months of pain and diligence it took to be successful at breastfeeding, it’s been such a roller coaster of emotions. I’m so grateful for where we are as a family and all the love and support we’ve had from our loved ones. My heart is so full! .

I so loved working on these invitations! Translucent vellum envelopes with large heart shaped confetti are such fun touches on this baby blue and red Valentine’s themed 1st birthday party. Even the stamps coordinated perfectly!

Invitations ready for delivery! I do love working on the paper goods for my clients. Even this simple single panel has beautiful details that are also functional. The RSVP section is customized with pre-printed guest names with check boxes for their responses. I use the same technique for weddings with meal indicators, so that the bride and groom know exactly who is eating chicken, beef, or fish when the rsvp card is returned. Stationery design is included in several of our packages and can be added a la carte, so ask us about it!
