Celina and Martin had such a fun wedding concept, jewel tones and royal accents all set on a beach in La Jolla. How fun! Bringing their vision together was Naomi of Enchanted Dream Weddings, collecting everything from royal florals, to royal place cards to a royal cake by Sweet Cheeks!
Check out the fun details in our amateur shots, the professional shots are on their way!

Recently we were asked to produce a table scape for the Fall Exquisite Weddings Magazine Launch Party. Of course we couldn’t resist. We went with an ultra clean, modern and industrial display of metallic building materials, enameled table, lucite chairs, gumball dessert pyramids, matching paper products, grapewood branches and, of course, a succulent encrusted rope.
Special thanks to Lounge Appeal for all of the fantastic furniture, Brightly Designed for their stylish paper products and A Sweet Addition for making eye popping gumball pyramids!!

Well, here we are again, another beautiful wedding styled by Luxe Special Events. This wedding had lots of contemporary and urban elements including chic lounge decor and backdrops, as well as the backdrop of Downtown San Diego and Petco Park, as seen from the venue, The Ultimate Skybox. Concept Event Design’s smile booth wall and furniture added the perfect chic greeting as the guest entered this fun club experience. Audra Rene did a number on Katie and her ladies. Sweet Cheeks knocked this simple and elegant cake out of the park. Overall, this was a super cool wedding we were stoked to produce for. Enjoy!

Every year we’re met with a challenge, and his name is Chef Timothy Ralphs of Estancia Hotel and Spa in La Jolla. Chef is a big supporter of The American Liver Foundation and their annual gala. Chef puts out a good spread, and he expects us to do the same. Every year he challenges us to do come up with something unique and custom that will act as a conversation starter for all of the gala’s guests which help make it such a success. Here is this year’s table, a round table rendition of our Frank Gehry Metal Tabletop. It’s high recyclable and post consumer waste content went perfectly with Chef’s green menu. Here are some pics of our creation. Special thanks to Rock Paper Scissors for these super cool Lucite menus, Concepts Event Design for the awesome chargers and linens and to Kool. Party Rentals for the magnificent acrylic chairs. Enjoy!

Swirling towers reveal flowers running through like water.

Craspedia offshoots add whimsy.

Neat touches are added to the votive candles.

Chairs magnify the table’s modern style.

Incredible Lucite menus work the table’s modern and curvaceous look.

The amazing vendors are credited.

…well, I think Luxe Special Events put quite a bit of effort into this one but they made it look quite, simply… elegant! Jenny and her team at Luxe knocked this one out of the park for our bride Karen, from stunning napkin detail to beautiful table numbers, to fine linens and lounge furniture by Concepts Event Design. It all went great with the elegant garden feel of The Hilton Torrey Pines. We can’t see the real pics that have yet to come but here are some sneak peeks by us in the mean time.. enjoy!

Cascading phales and gardenias for our lovely bride.

A curly willow and hydrangea chuppah envelope them.

Rustic glam accents on the chairs.

Fun escort cards in wheat grass with satin root wraps and custom buttons.

Damask wrapped cymbidium orchids upon each table.

A portion of the twenty table layout.

Our new, striking black glass vases go well with the stylish whimsy of Concept’s linens and chargers.

A set of three.

A little shabby chic lounge.

Fun cake with phaleanopsis orchids and curly willow.

No detail was left untouched, down to the beautiful table numbers and the exquisite broaches on the chair sashes.
