Cheers To You, Amber and Thomas

I instantly fell in love with Amber and her mom, Holly. They were two of the nicest and hippest (is that a word? it should be) people I've met in awhile. It wasn't until after our meeting that I realized my sweet clients were non other than Holly Sharp, famous designer from Corona del Mar, and her daughter, one of the designers of Lucy Love, which just happens to be my daughter's favorite designer. I couldn't be more thrilled to be coordinating this wedding and working with the wonderful mother daughter team of Lucy Love. The wedding was at St. Catherine's of Sienna in Laguna Beach and the reception was held at the Hotel Laguna. Here are a couple photos from the day: Amber and her dad, just about to walk down the aisle at St. Catherine's I've planned and coordinated weddings for over a decade now (!!!) and this was my first time at Hotel Laguna. Amber and Holly and I completely redesigned the room. We brought in a white dance floor, lounge furniture for two different decks, chivari chairs, specialty linens, as well as custom lighting, and fabric to drape the walls with. Her colors were a pallet of corals and reds, each bridesmaid had a custom bridesmaid dress in a different color. Each bouquet had a room that matched the bridesmaid's dress: Amber and Holly added so many personal touches to the room, including family portraits, Chinese lanterns, and a guest 'blanket' to sign, but my favorite personal touch was that Holly and Amber designed Amber's wedding dress. Take a look at how gorgeous the bride is: The groom looked great too, and was just as nice as his beautiful bride. The flowers were amazing, full of color and life, just like the bride! A Hawaiian blessing before dinner: Redoing the Catalina Room: My favorite, Red Velvet Cake. I knew I liked this couple! The staff at Hotel Laguna was wonderful. The catering directors and banquet captains were on hand and incredibly helpful from start to finish. This hotel really is a hidden gem, check out the view: Check my website soon for pictures (the professional ones) to come from Tyler Boye.
