This was such a beautiful wedding… Jenn and Chad’s glamorous Great Gatsby inspired wedding so such a fun wedding to be a part of and design with Splendid Sentiments Floral Design. Every detail was on par with the Gatsby theme from the flowers, her wedding dress, stationery, linens, mini champagne escort-cards, dessert display to even her special music selection.
PRADO AT BALBOA PARK
PART 1 – PRE-CEREMONY & CEREMONY
It’s so much fun to design around a beautiful theme and this one is one of my favorites. This stunning was wedding a the Prado at Balboa Park was inspired by Great Gatsby and the art deco designs of the 1920’s era. There was glitz, glamor, opulence and beauty. From the beautiful Gatsby inspired invitation with it’s black laser cut design with gold and ivory color pallet (by Whimsique) to the beautiful and intricate detail of the beading of the subtle blush tones wedding dress, to the opulent florals centerpieces with crystals, pearls and feathers (Splendid Sentiments Floral Design), to the Mini Champagne Favors/place-cards with themed art decor designed place-cards to the beautiful champagne tower and sequin glamorous linens (Concepts Event Design) and even the Great Gatsby themed music – you felt and saw the theme throughout.read more

MANDY & JAMIE ~ LOVE AT FIRST BLUSH PART 1
{PRE-CEREMONY & CEREMONY}
I was beyond thrilled when Mandy reached out to me and asked me (Monarch Weddings) to be her wedding coordinator. She is not only absolutely stunning, she has the sweetest personality and such a warm kind spirit. Jamie (Groom) is equally as handsome as she is pretty and too was a total sweetheart. If you spend any amount of time with these two sweet lovebirds, you get the sense that they are kindred spirits from another time or place, soul mates that compliment one another on every level.
When we met and started talking about her design aesthetics, she shared with me that she was inspired by the movie a “Midnight in Paris” and the scenes from the 1920’s in Paris, so it seemed a natural fit for her to select the beautiful Parisian designed Westgate Hotelin downtown San Diego. The stunning Versailles Ballroom with it’s gold gilded walls and opulent crystal chandeliers set the stage and was the perfect backdrop for her design theme. Rich luxurious textiles and patterns in soft romantic warm colors complimented her choice of blush, ivory and gold color pallet. She selected the extremely talented San Diego floral designer Karen Tran to create the beautiful floral masterpieces. The Versailles ballroom was the site for the glamorous ceremony and reception. It was a unique setup in-which we had the couple getting married on a white circular custom dancefloor by Platinum Pro that displayed a custom filigree monogram logo design by J Grace Luxury Event Stationery. The guests were seated around the danceflloor all facing the center of the dancefloor where the couple were standing – there was an awesome views from every seat in the ballroom. After the ceremony, the guests were invited to join the cocktail reception in the Westgate Foyerwhile we worked diligently to flip the room for the reception.read more
