What's not to love at the St. Regis?

The Wedding Show at the St. Regis this past weekend was stunning. Truly a beautiful event, marked with sunshine, great attendance and the vendors who helped put them all together are wonderful. Special thanks to just a few: Fantasy Florals, Enchanted Florist, Ashley Video, White Flite, Vive Entertainment, Lounge Appeal andthe St. Regis’ very own Vogue Salon for all the hair and make-up on our models. Special thanks to Erin Cole Couture Bridal Salon for providing all of the Wedding gowns for the Fashion Show. Thank you so much Tara!

Location: Arroyo Trabuco Golf Club

My husband, son and I enjoyed Valentine’s Day Brunch at Arroyo Trabuco Golf Club. It is one of my favorite locations in Orange County for a wedding. Since I had my camera with me I thought I’d take a few pictures for those who have never seen this location.

St.Regis Coordinator's Luncheon

It was an honor and a privilidge to attend the St. Regis Monarch Beach Wedding Forum and Luncheon this past week. Myself and a handful of other wedding vendors were treated to an amazing 5 course lunch with champagne, wine and at the end chocolates and more desserts (galore) upstairs in their Presedential Suite.

The St. Regis has so many choices for a bride looking to get married. They are very reasonable in their pricing and would be ideal for anyone looking to have an afternoon ceremony or evening wedding, overlooking the ocean or within one of their ballrooms. Guest counts can range from small to large, they can accomodate and work within a budget. All Saturday's in May 2010 are available too! For more information please visit St. Regis Monach Beach.

Thank you Kelly O'Dell and Amy Botdorf for your thoughtfulness and invitation to such a nice luncheon.

{ Sue + Ken } St. Regis Wedding

Ken and Sue tied the knot just days before Christmas at the beautiful St. Regis Monarch Beach hotel in Dana Point, CA. With the hotel already decorated for the season and all lit up, there was not much more that Sue and Ken had to do, but say “I do” in front of 300 family and friends. Great Southern California weather prevailed and we had a gorgeous sunny warm afternoon for the nuptials to occur outside on the Grand Lawn. Thanks you two for a wonderful wedding to partake in…and thank you to the fabulous vendors that helped make this wedding possible at the St. Regis. Specifially, Kelly O’Dell in the Catering Dept.

{ Katie + Chad } Bahia Corinthian Yacht Club Wedding

Details, details...nautical themed wedding with navy linens, anchors, salt water taffy, woody beach cruiser, cruise in the harbor for the couple and bridal party during the cocktail hour and, even the brides own "5 Sisters" family wine shared as a surprise to the guests. The reception was held at the Bahia Corinthian Yacht Club in Newport Beach overlooking all of Balboa Island and Harbor. Katie and Chad were so sweet and gracious throughout the entire event, thank you. It is always a pleasure working with a sweet, happy bride (and organized!). I teared up at the Father of the Bride speech, truly a first for me. Here are some wonderful photos from Heather at Vallentyne Photography who captured the October fall day beautifully.
