We're happy to share with you one of our Los Angeles team's weddings from March in Ojai. The modern minimalist design is bright with happy pops of yellow and orange on a neutral palette which brought the sun to a surprisingly rainy day in Ojai. The rain may have poured, but the amazing crew of vendors pulled out all the stops to put emergency rain plans into action to give Jessie and John a beautiful wedding day…
Read MoreWe love an excuse to create beauty and great experiences for people. In January we had the opportunity to do both, this time for the Art of Wedding PDX’s Venue Crawl. A group of us creatives designed a mock wedding at the Redd on Salmon in downtown Portland. With bright pops of pastel mint and bubble gum pink in modern designs, we created a fun juxtaposition to the urban industrial feeling of the venue…
Read MoreWhen we sat down to plan this styled shoot, we knew we wanted to aim for something visually striking and even a touch avant garde. Our initial inspiration came from the bold use of colors and playful monochromatic palettes we found in high-fashion shoots and product styling campaigns. Something this daring is rarely represented in the bridal and event design world and we felt inspired and challenged to really push our limits and cross boundaries…
Read MoreSpring is nearly sprung and we're thrilled with the prospect! We are relieved to see that the longer and warmer days are drawing nearer. We've been planning up a storm all winter for our 2018 (and even a few '19) clients and we've been asked by our clients if we have a stylish menswear vendor. The answer is a big emphatic YES. We've been working with The Black Tux for years now, and we love them…
Read MoreHappy Friday friends! Hopping on the #flashbackfriday bandwagon today, for a glimpse of warmer days last summer. Courtney and Carl tied the knot at the family digs on the water outside the city. The garden and tree filled beachside property was a wonderful backdrop for their fun filled day. Their details and flowers were romantic and the food and music were on point…

Read MoreIt's hot in the city with this Seattle wedding! Fyfy +Viet wanted an urban celebration that channelled a bit of swag and a lot of fun for their crew of friends and family to enjoy to the max. We opted for a roaming reception at WIthin Sodo with its eclectic multiple spaces including a rooftop overlooking the stadiums and Seattle skyline. Going full Pacific Northwest fusion from Madres Catering…
Read MoreWe look forward to the Dart Party each year because it presents us with the unique opportunity to design without limits. This year, Jesse and Michael from Dart Collective really upped the ante with their idea for a “Cosmic Folk” themed party inspired by their latest ensemble, the Jensen Singers. After a lot of creative soul searching about how “Cosmic Folk” translates into decor and signage…
Read MoreHappy Wedding Wednesday folks! We've got a sweet Seattle wedding from last summer to share with you. Less is more for this Fremont Foundry roof top celebration, where summer light, local architecture and modern minimalism set the backdrop for Jess and Seth's happy union. Shalom Imaginative flew in from Los Angeles…
Read MoreAfter meeting with our dear clients Rebecca and Garrett, we realized that fusion of past and present was the epicenter of design for Becca and Garrett’s special day. A childhood spent on rural farmland with an appreciation for nature, the organic and the beauty in the Pacific Northwest took center stage as our angle for paying homage to the past…
