Gwen & Erwin's San Francisco Wedding


Gwen & Erwin had an awesome wedding up in San Francisco. The day started out with a beautiful ceremony at the gorgeous St. Peter & Paul Church. Next came the reception at the super unique Bently Reserve. We just don't get that kind of architecture here in the OC! Everything was fabulous. Gwen & Erwin were so fun and so was their wedding party! Alex had a blast trooping around downtown San Francisco with photographer Sherman Chu. They got some amazing shots!! Grace Lee helped coordinate all the details in order to make the event unforgettable. Congratulations guys! Check out their Arthouse Edit:

Silvie & Stan's Wedding Trailer


What do you get when you combine a couple totally in love with a talented wedding coordinator at a gorgeous venue? One ultra chic and unique event! Carolyn Chen pulled out all the stops to help put Silvie & Stan's dream wedding together. The logistics were tough... a private residence with no parking in the Pacific Palisades, no built in catering or furniture for that matter so everything had to be brought in. The color palate was Orange & Green and it was amazing how everything matched and looked incredible... right down to the soaps in the bathroom! Other unique elements that were added included lounge furniture and Mass Ensemble (a very unique band... you'll see footage in the trailer). Other vendors that contributed to the amazing night were the fabulous Ira Lippke (I know he got some stunning shots in the courtyard), Good Gracious Catering (yummy!), and of course we can't forget Nisie of Enchanted Florist who provided the gorgeous floral decor! Congratulations Silvie & Stan!

Ashton & John's Same Day Edit from the St. Regis


Oh my gosh I can't say enough about this amazing couple! Ashton and John are super sweet and soooo fun to work with. And I'm not being biased just because I grew up in the same town as John (he went to my rival high school... of course I'm like 10 years older than him LOL!) The wedding at the St. Regis had a Japanese flair with beautiful flowers and decor provided by Nisie of Enchanted Florist. Paula Laskelle did a fabulous job planning this event... it was flawless! She's always so great to work with and makes the day so special for everyone involved. We were able to work with Chris Humphreys (& his wife Katie) for the first time. They were taking the photos and were so easy and fun to work with and boy did they get some crazy cool Images! Oh and lastly I don't think I even need to mention Ashton's amazing dress... one of the most killer gowns I have ever seen! Check out their Same Day Edit... congratulations guys!

Misty & Rick's Same Day Edit from the Four Seasons Las Vegas


Misty & Rick are a super cool couple. We were lucky to spend quite a bit of time with them and their hilarious friends before the wedding because we shot a concept video that was also played at the reception. So when it came time to shoot the wedding at the Four Seasons Las Vegas, we were so excited. We knew it was going to be amazing! The whole event had a Rock & Roll vibe mixed with elegance. R Jack Balthazar came out from L.A. and they provided stunning florals... all red roses. And I've never seen so many rose petals down a ceremony aisle before! The ballroom was also stunning with a huge Rock & Roll stage, lounge furniture, and it was complete with a gold dance floor. Brooke from Details Details did an incredible job with this wedding. There were so many details and logistics to organize and everything ran super smooth and looked amazing. Aaron Delesie and his wife Jen photographed this event (check out the SWEET pic below) and it's always so fun and easy to work with them! Congrats Misty & Rick! Have an AMAZING honeymoon!

Ariel & Joey's Arthouse Edit from the Four Seasons Santa Barbara


This wedding was absolutely stunning. We first met Ariel when she was the coordinator for Mira & Jeff's wedding last year. She loved our work and we were thrilled when she hired us for her very own wedding! And boy... does she know how to plan a wedding!! Ariel & Joey had a Marie Antoinette inspired themed event at the Four Seasons Biltmore in Santa Barbara and the details were extraordinary... from Ariel's magnificent dress, to the Sylvia Weinstock cake flown all the way in from New York City. There were also special touches like a miniature pony that walked the rings down the aisle as well as chandeleirs and decorative mirrors in the beautifully draped cocktail area. Jamie from Churchill House VIP Events did a fabulous coordinating all the design and events to make Ariel's dream wedding a reality! The day was even more incredible because we were able to work with fabulous photographers Michel & Anna Costa They rock the Santa Barbara area (and beyond) and it's great when we have an opportunity to work with them! Oh and keep checking the listings because Platinum Weddings will be featuring this gorgeous wedding! Congrats Ariel & Joey!

Katia & David's Same Day Edit from Casa Del Mar


Casa Del Mar is a gorgeous hotel right on the beach in Santa Monica, so what better place to have a beautiful wedding? The fabulous Carolyn Chen did a crazy cool job coordinating this wedding... just look at the amazing ballroom! Wow! Katia & David are a super cool couple and we thoroughly enjoyed working with them. I loved that David carried Katia into the ballroom from their Grand Entrance! It was also really cool to work with Michael Norwood who we've hung out with a few times socially, but hadn't ever worked with him... until last Sunday! And he was fantastic... and his photos are just as great as his personality. Congrats Katia & David!

Kendra & Mike's Same Day Edit from the St. Regis


Hi all! I just got back from an amazing two days in Austin with my fab Re:Frame Collective friends! We spent two days planning for a KILLER time in New Orleans and scouting out awesome fun opportunities for Re:Frame Austin!

Anyway... before I left for Austin I edited Kendra & Mike's SDE which was super fun! Kendra is really into house/techno and so am I so I was really excited to use this song! The day's events went down fabulously thanks to Jeannie at Details Details and the design was super unique! Of course that means that Sunny from White Lilac was on board to add to the creativity. JP was the officient and White Flite provided the amazing 100+ dove release! On top of all these amazing vendors, we also were thrilled to work with Bob Ortiz! He's always so fun and takes some sweet pics!! So here's the Same Day that was projected on plasmas around the room. The Monogram at the beginning stayed on until the video was ready to play. Enjoy!
