Awesome, wonderful, beautiful… What else can I say about my lovely Bride Jamie!?!?! And Steve is a pretty swell guy too… It was truly a splendid wedding and here’s the scoop on Jamie and Steve…
I had the opportunity to work side by side with Jamie and Steve as they planned their wedding somewhat long distance from San Diego. It was a true pleasure to see Jamie, and her sweet mom Kathy, remember to put the details in place the day of the wedding. Every recommendation I gave them, or that they found online, for keeping their color palette of burgundy, gold and ivory consistent through the entire wedding was perfect. I loved their attention to detail, even down to the consistent “scroll” type pattern that Jamie carried over from the invitations to Send Off Brunch notes we handed out at the end of the reception…
The Richard Nixon Library set the perfect tone for their lovely ceremony and reception… The ceremony in the gorgeous Rose Garden and their reception in the stunning East Room… Absolutely divine it was and we could not have asked for better weather on this November day… Alan Landes, their officiant, led the ceremony with love and warmth… and the sunlight was perfect, and none other than the amazing Jen of PhotoJenic, captured the entire day from start to finish…
Before guests headed into the lovely East Room for the reception, they were greeted with the tasty cuisine of White House Catering, one of my favs. Guests raved about how yummy the Hors d’ Oeuvres were and how the presentation of the food was spectacular. Nothing but the best for Jamie and Steve! And, who could forget the beautiful Centerpieces and arch in the garden, all created by Michelle of Magnolia Designs (another one of my favs)… I loved the creativity of having tall and short arrangements in the grand East Room. It really was eye catching… And the soft amber lighting and tunes, from Fly By Night completed the mood for this festive occasion…
Jamie and Steve selected a yummy Cake from Klaus over at Heidelburg Pastry.. it was a great way to end the night on a sweet note!
oh, and I forgot to mention how I loved the simple and sweet decor on the Escort Card table. Jamie combined their engagement picture along with Steve’s Parent’s Wedding Picture and Jamie’s Parent’s Wedding Picture. It was truly sweet and a way for them to honor them…
It was an evening to remember! Thanks Jamie & Steve for giving me the opportunity to be a part of your special day! Many blessings to you both!
