We wanted to share with you one of our SoCal events that recently appeared in Wedding Style Guide. Such fans of this impeccably gorgeous magazine. Ashley & Rob’s wedding was stunning, taking place last fall at the fabulous Bacara Resort in Santa Barbara. *Love* Our friend, the ever-talented Mindy Rice provided the florals and Aaron Delesie captured this perfect day. Check it.

We love collaborating with Elana! She creates the most ingenious, personalized, and adorable gift bags for our clients! When she sent us photos and info about these new bags she created for Etsy we knew that we needed to share the love! Here’s some info from Elana about her latest goodness…

Our “To Have and to Hold” tote is perfect for wedding welcome gifts and favors (see the double-entendre) or as an everyday carry-all.

Having an event? We can print our “To Have and to Hold” totes in your choice of ink color if you order 50+. For fantastic welcome gift packaging, combine this tote with it’s matching customizable event guide.

Our event guides and packaging can be purchased a la carte, or combined with our mélange curation services. Mélanges are our answer to the gift basket: a thoughtfully curated group of items accessorized with distinct design details (and no cellophane wrap, thank you). We’ll help you select and source the contents, and even do the final gift assembly. Looking for a different aesthetic? We are happy to offer bespoke gift design services.

Please inquire for pricing, or you can purchase individual totes now on our Etsy or Supermarket Shops at:

Yes, you read that correctly.  The Boom Boom Room is now open to the public and for private parties.  What is it you ask?  A throwback space, located in the new Standard Hotel in the MPD.  Outfitted with 1970s retro-modern decor:  gold chairs, black tiles, and lots of cream leather.  An aesthetic that any Riunite drinking, Three’s Company watching, tracksuit wearing, lover of all-things 70s inspired will appreciate.  Enjoy.  We did.

Yay! Our fave wedding (of which we recently gave you a Sneak Peek) is up on Style Me Pretty all day. xo

If we could label anyone as a kick-ass bride it would be Krista! Krista is a professional seamstress in Seattle. She wanted a 1920′s style wedding and Clane brilliantly captures the aesthetic. The carnival-circus theme was shot at Evergreen State Fairgrounds in Monroe, WA. The fair hadn’t opened yet, but they were able to get on a couple rides for photos. Rad. Krista and Clane collaborated the entire day about photo ideas and styles. All of the 300 guests dressed in a 1920′s style theme, including the live band and vendors. The entire wedding can be seen here.
