Anne & Jeff - Happily Ever After!

Wednesday, May 18, 2011

I was already completely enamored with Anne when I read her first inquiry email. She seemed so completely sweet and excited to be engaged and getting married... and to top it off, she spells her name with an "e" just like one of my favorite characters from the classic Anne of Green Gables! I knew we would be kindred spirits and we really were! Each meeting was filled with genuine conversation and laughs and I have come to respect and love Anne (and Jeff!) like older siblings who are super responsible, wise, kind and unconditionally caring.  They both hold such a special place in my heart and I am thrilled to be able to share their gorgeous wedding with you all. They truly are a perfect match and the love and respect that they have for each other simply oozes out of each image, don't you think?

Their fabulous wedding was at The Four Seasons in Beverly Hills. I love the staff there and their service is impeccable! All images are courtesy of the amazing husband and wife duo, Erin Hearts Court. I am so thrilled to be able to work with them again next month! They are truly gems in the industry!!

Anne's bridal bouquet was completely comprised of white English garden roses. Yum.
the lovely flowers on her Poeme gown by Christos are simply dreamy
Isn't Anne such a classic beauty? Anne is all grace and light. :)
One of Anne's close friends designed her stationery and had everything letterpressed.
An old and dear friend of mine creates these beautiful, custom silk gift boxes. Many brides treat the gift box like an after thought and use any cage or box they can find the week before the wedding, but it is one of the first things your guests will see on your wedding day, so I think it is nice to have something a little special on the table. :) Plus! It is a nice keepsake after your special day that can hold all of the lovely memories from your wedding! Right now those items from my wedding (extra programs, menus, our place cards and escort cards, my garter, pressed petals from my bouquet, the locket and ribbon from my bouquet, our wedding day cards to each other, etc.) are all in a Crate and Barrel box. lol. It serves it's function, but is definitely not as nice as the boxes above! ;)

Our team created these petal cones to line the ceremony aisle.
Isn't their arch gorgeous? Commerce Flowers never ceases to amaze me with what they can do on a budget! It was the perfect complement to the clean and understated elegance of their wedding.
LOVE these two images captured by Erin and Courtney! ;)

And of course, the orchid display in the ballroom foyer. It takes my breath away every time! I can barely keep one orchid plant alive in my house, I don't know how they manage to keep these looking so beautiful and fresh all year round! We decided to let the flowers center stage and kept the escort card display simple by placing them in vintage gold frames provided by Found Rentals. 

The ballroom was stunning and Anne made these table numbers herself! 

The cake provided by the Four Seasons looked too good to eat! 

And the waffle and ice cream station that we decided to set up as a midnight snack was a HUGE hit! I am such a fan of breakfast at night.
And I leave you with two images of the gorgeous couple during their first dance. 
*I love you, Anne and Jeff! Thank you so much for letting me be a part of your amazing day!
