The beautiful fountain in the center of the courtyard set the focal point for this reception. The tables surrounding the fountain boasted pink sugar rimmed champagne glasses for the toast, and the guests danced on a black and white checked dance floor.

The McMillin event center at NTC Promenade sets the background for this fall wedding with a western touch. Each placesetting was graced with a horseshoe for luck and the walls were highlighted with a custom gobo featuring the bride and groom’s names. The main feature of the room were the beautiful centerpieces, designed and assembled by the mother of the bride.

The Museum of Photographic Arts sets a simple contemporary background for this wedding with an organic feel. My favorite part – the olivino lamour napkins provided a nice pop for the tables, as well as a little shine.

Starting with chic lounge furniture and cigars on the patio for cocktail hour all the way to a gourmet dessert bar at the end of the night, safe to say Shelia and Edwin’s guests got everything they could hope for and more. Adding a coffee bar for their guests to have made-to-order lattes and esspresso, and a candy bar, there were a lot of special touches.

While I only have a few great images of this event, I just had to share. A fully draped white tent at Mt. Woodson with spring colors of buttercream and white was the background for a dream wedding. Little birds nests at each place setting mimicked the garden feel of the Mt. Woodson grounds.

Fall in love with this Autumn reception at Bernardo Winery. Chocolate linens and fall flowers accented all of the tables. A custom buffet with a colorful Tomato Tortellini and Prosciutto wrapped Chicken Breast pleased everyone’s palates. Guests enjoyed Bernardo Winery’s signature wines in the bar, and each dining table was named after the Bride and Groom’s favorite wines.

For our first feature, a romantic seaside wedding:
After a ceremony overlooking the ocean, guests mingled around the property enjoying tray passed hors d’ oeuvres including baked brie with apricot sauce and ahi poke on a wonton crisp. They sat down to a sunset dinner of Filet Mignon and Macadamia Nut crusted Mahi Mahi before champagne toasting and dancing.
