Hotel Del Coronado

Wedding @ The Del last Saturday...
What a great venue! I felt like I was transported back to the early 1900's. It's a magical (and some say haunted) place with a picturesque backdrop. Whether you envision a celebration that's traditional or trend-setting, festive or formal, intimate or grand scale, in a ballroom, garden, or right on the beach, the resort's variety of premier outdoor wedding sites has something for everyone!

The hotel, built in 1888, inspired my vintage photos...

Julia's Beach Bridal Shower

May 1st was Julia's Beach Bridal Shower... and what an amazing location, right on the beach in San Clemente. The bride-to-be has a very classic & timeless style, so I wanted to reflect that in the shower. With the beach as my backdrop, I combined white & light blue linens topped with large vases filled with sand, shells, rocks and all things beach! White pom-poms were dancing in the wind, and orchids (Julia's favorite flower) were everywhere you looked! Guests sipped on champagne & sangria, munched on tasty food from Sundried Tomato Cafe and fed their sweet-tooth with cupcakes from Sprinkles.
