I know, I know. Photographers are ruling the planet these days. There are so many of us, and it’s hard to know who to choose. And while I think your photographer’s portfolio should make your heart sing, that isn’t the only consideration. Personality and process are essential (and you can learn more about mine here). […]

Breathtaking views, exceptional cuisine, and non-stop luxury? All this sounds like a recipe for your dream wedding!

Will’s sarcastic big eyed stare with a smirk on his face as he looked at Nikki. Looking down and laughing at the silly ways Will makes Nikki happy. Nikki looks back up at Will and says, “I love you”. Those three words that surpassed ten plus years of being together. The wedding was planned for […]

Shanelle, a luxury wedding planner in Los Angeles, and her fiancé, Kareem, wanted a glamorous desert sand dunes Palm Springs engagement session. But with thirty-mile-per-hour winds, that sand begins to feel more like a dermabrasion treatment rather than dancing with sand between your toes at sunset. While the weather can be unpredictable in Palm Springs, I […]

This Little White Chapel elopement was everything a Las Vegas elopement would be, including getting married by Elvis in a classic car with a vintage dress. It was not the wedding Blaire and Ed had originally planned for, but it brought everyone together for a gorgeous occasion. Keep reading to learn more and get inspired […]

Planning a wedding today is much different than how weddings were planned even a decade ago. Pinterest and Instagram have given rise to seasonal trends and over-the-top wedding designs. As you plan your wedding day it’s all about creating a tribe of vendors that will bring the feeling of your wedding day to life. Not […]
