Custom Wedding invitations designed by Peach Mail Box.  When Christina first approached me she loved the idea of having a painting done just like the one we did for Melissa + Bernie's wedding.  Her wedding would be taking place at the LA River and Garden Center as well but her style was more reflective of the rod iron doors and historic buildings. 

Gamie created this custom invite with vintage design that reflected both the clients and the venues needs.  You can view more photos on Just Peachy Blog.  Nuvia of Arte Crisol created a custom painting for them to display at the wedding reception which was also used as the front cover of their wedding invitations.  Can't wait to see the professional shots of the wedding in the meantime enjoy the little sneak peak picture off my trusty black berry.

I can't believe how fast time passes us by.  Casey and I have been emailing back and forth recently about her new venture FutureWise Consulting and realized that a year had quickly gone by since her wedding. 

I didn't have a chance to post any pictures from her wedding since it's been quite difficult to get a hold of her photographer, however, I did manage to pull some pictures off her personal site to share with you all as well as a short video that my friend Andrew of Tour LA formely Iobon Cinema shot of their wedding.

I'm so proud of you Casey and what you are doing to help mentor students through the college transition.  We need more people like you in this world.

Claudia just radiates with happiness.  She has the most beautiful smile that can just light up a room.  I'm so excited for her upcoming wedding in just a few weeks.  William of William Kim Photography has out done himself again.  I'm delighted to be working with him this year.  He has simply become one of my favorite photographers.  He has such a caring demeanor about him and a calming effect with dealing with my clients.  I hear nothing but raves on how comfortable he makes them feel. 

Claudia and I met many moons ago while attending the same high school.  Although we lost touch after high school the miracle that is FACEBOOK and mutual friends have managed to get us reconnected.  When she emailed me asking if I would help her and her fiance plan their upcoming wedding, I was simply honored.  I love planning weddings but I especially love planning my friends weddings.  There is just a different level of mutual respect for one another and the bonds that are formed during the process are just irreplaceable.  Thank you Claudia for allowing me to be a part of your special day.  I can't wait for your wedding!
