We’re beyond thrilled to share Taylor and Ben’s wedding has been featured on Style Me Pretty 💚

The Merv Griffin Estate’s Spanish-Moorish architecture gave us the bones. From there we built something fully art-forward: sculptural lattice screens framing the ceremony, olive velvet draping the lounge, a mirrored dance floor catching the last light of the evening.

Taylor walked the aisle in a sleek strapless Renhue gown, dramatic hip draping and all, toward Ben in a white dinner jacket and black lapels. Her bridesmaids carried the color story in mismatched butter-yellow silk, a soft counterpoint to the sage green and burgundy woven through the reception.

Garden roses, burgundy tulips and blush ranunculus filled sage green linens. Vintage-style lamps and taper candles did the rest of the work once the sun went down. A four-tier buttercream cake, piped with lace-like detail, stood at the center of it all.

Modern and romantic were never supposed to compete here. They just had to share a room.

Thank you Style Me Pretty for the feature!

A cream cap on every woven charger, stitched with the same palm tree from Shirley and Patrick’s welcome sign.

That little palm set the tone for the whole night at the Ritz-Carlton Rancho Mirage, where the desert handed us the palette and we followed its lead with burnt orange printed linens, ranunculus tucked in among succulents, and candles ready for the moment the valley went gold.

Everyone they love, together on one hillside, with the whole weekend still ahead.

Congratulations, Shirley and Patrick 🧡

Jordan poured the ch*****ne tower herself, and that set the tone for the whole night.

Vows happened under a clear acrylic frame on the lawn at La Quinta Country Club, white florals up front and the Santa Rosas behind, and then the party moved inside to a dance floor with a ceiling of hanging blooms, a rotary phone collecting voicemails from everyone they love, and a neon sign saying what the whole room already knew.

It was always you.

Maddie spent years as a ballroom dancer, so the dance floor was always going to get its moment.

It got a feathered outfit change and a bride who danced like she’d never left the ballroom.

Before that, dinner at The Parker Palm Springs ran down custom glass tables that caught every candle, with olive trees rising through the room and white florals spilling against deep green velvet. The whole night sparkled, right down to her gown.

Congratulations, Maddie and Cody 🤍

Studio 54 landed in the desert for Nathan and Trevor.

Their after-party at Cash Estate took the disco fantasy and set it against Palm Springs at night. Drag queens lined the entrance, sending every guest into the ballroom like it was opening night. Silver horses stood watch under the lights. Sequins caught every flash. The dance floor never emptied.

This is what happens when a couple hands us a reference and lets us build the whole world around it.

Congratulations, Nathan and Trevor. What a party.

Beyond thrilled to have been named ‘Best Wedding Planner & Designer’ by Loverly!!

To every couple who has trusted us with their vision, their families and the story of their big day, thank you. We don’t take that trust lightly, ever.

To the vendors who take our wildest ideas and somehow bring them to life even better than we imagined, thank you. None of this happens alone, and we know it.

And to be named alongside such incredible talent on this year’s list, we are so honored. Truly.

This industry is full of people who pour everything into a single day, and to be recognized among them is something we’ll carry with us for a long time to come.

Here’s to more days, more details and more couples who let us build something extraordinary with them 🧡

Pearl details, darling patterns and a pop of daring pink worked together seamlessly for Jordin and Allan’s playful wedding day, now featured on California Wedding Day!

Jordin carried orchids down the aisle in a Sarah Seven gown finished with teardrop pearls. Allan matched her polish in a white tux jacket and Louboutin loafers.

Two people who clearly know exactly what they like, and weren’t going to compromise on any of it.

The reception carried the pattern language through everything, including a striped bar, checkerboard cake, textured linens layered under the florals. Cohesive without ever feeling matchy. Just a couple’s personality, built out room by room.

See all of the details and read the full story now on California Wedding Day!

Jackie and Andrew wanted color, not a palette.

Pink, yellow, and purple against the Santa Rosa Mountains carried the ceremony at PGA West Mountain Dunes, from the floral installation framing the arch to a lemonade bar striped to match.

The reception kept it elegant, white linens and gold chairs under an open-air tent.

Then the after-party flipped the whole night, a hot pink balloon staircase, a dance floor strung in gold light, and a crowd that never left it.

Bold looks good on a couple willing to commit to it.

Shirley and Pat built their wedding at Cache Estate around two identities that didn’t need to compete.

Ivory florals under a sprawling old tree, a live band playing through dinner, and place settings that paired chopsticks with the menu card.

The reception honored Shirley’s Chinese heritage as a full banquet, bamboo steamers to start, then a dessert bar with its own chalkboard menu, tofu pudding, pandan, red bean, tang yuan, and boba.

A wedding that looked like a garden party and tasted like home.

Trevor and Nathan didn’t want their wedding at Cache Estate to look like anyone else’s.

So the tables came in olive branch and soft greenery, the cake wore the same palette down to the last leaf, and when the sun dropped, the whole property lit up under hanging chandeliers and string light for a night that didn’t quit. Two grooms in black tie, a dance floor that never emptied, and a money dance that had the whole tent on its feet.

Weddings feel different when the couple lets the day be exactly theirs. This one was.
