September 11, 2009 Leslie + Jeff

Leslie and Jeff are married! I don't think it could have been any more beautiful at Eberle Winery than it was during their intimate ceremony. It was truly "God's light" shining behind them as they said their vows! Ely Roberts and Christan P photography captured the evening beautifully. Along with their assistant, there were 3 photographers for a 30-person wedding...talk about paparrazi!
Leslie, Jeff and their close friends and family enjoyed a FEAST prepared by the always scrumptious Trumpetvine Catering in the Eberle caves. Um...chocolate french toast for dessert? Yes, please!
Congratulations you two!

August 8, 2009 Sarah + Brent

Sarah and Brent hired us one month before their gorgeous Villa de Buena Vista wedding, and we're so glad they did! The views for the ceremony backdrop and reception were spectacular!

We had a great evening working with Melissa from Kramer Entertainment, and Mike and Rachel Larson from Mike Larson, Inc. photographers.

And do we even need to mention how yummy the ollaliberry ice cream from Doc Burnstein's was?!?!

Tami + Mat, September 13, 2008

This past weekend was Mat and Tami's wedding at the lovely Eagle Castle Winery off of Highway 46 West. Mat and Tami are just the nicest couple ever, hailing all the way from the midwest for their big day.


The original plan was to have their ceremony on the rooftop Sunrise terrace, and their reception on the Sunset terrace. However, after the entire reception was set up Mother Nature had other plans for us! It was so windy that 30 minutes before ceremony start time we had to break down the ENTIRE reception, move everything (tables, chairs, you name it!) downstairs to the ballroom, and re-set all of the tables! Jonnell and I felt like we were on some wedding reality show! Thankfully, the caterers were there to help us and the rooftop ceremony started on time as planned.

This was another wedding that was planned mostly via email. And even though Tami is a former wedding coordinator, it was Mat who was our primary contact and planner! You did an excellent job spoiling your new wife, Mat! We wish you guys the best!

Niki's Bachelorette Party

Jonnell helped me celebrate one of my last days as a bachelorette! A group of my girlfriends rented a trolley and we went wine tasting in Paso Robles. We had a blast! Above is a picture of us enjoying Bianchi, which is a place we would love to coordinate an intimate wedding at- gorgeous.

Amanda + Dave, July 11, 2008

This past weekend we coordinated Amanda and Dave's wedding at Meridian Vineyards in Paso Robles. Jonnell and I both got teary eyed a few times while we watched "our bride" make her way down the aisle. Dave proposed to Amanda the night before they moved to California from Indiana, so Amanda didn't have any local friends or family to help with the planning...we stepped in and held their hands through the entire process. It was a joy to see all of our hard work pay off!

Lawren from Manzanita Designs did an awesome job with the flowers, and Daniel and Laura from Daniel Wilson Photography were a pleasure to work with. Amanda and Dave even surprised their guests with one of the most *perfect* first dances I've ever seen (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9Qcn3k4z_0). Chris Bailey from Kramer Entertainment mixed it up and had everyone on the dance floor celebrating the happy couple!

Cheers to you two!
