Melysa and Mike's Wedding
We finally got the pictures posted on our website of Melysa and Mike's Wedding and they are so incredible we had a very hard time deciding which ones to use. It's no wonder since the photographer was Leigh Miller. She does amazing work and she is such a pleasure to work with. She captured Melysa beautifully which really isn't hard to do since she is stunning to begin with.
Mely and Mike were married on October 25, 2008 at Casa del Mar in Santa Monica. We love doing weddings there because the staff is so easy to work with and they are very helpful. If you have never been to a wedding there and are looking for a beach location to hold your wedding or event, you should definitely put them on your list. The ballroom is gorgeous and if you don't mind an indoor ceremony it is the perfect place to get married. Even though your ceremony takes place in the ballroom, the west wall is covered in ceiling to floor windows that overlook the ocean. It is a breathtaking view and one to consider if Santa Monica appeals to you.
For this particular wedding, we were able to work with some vendors that we had never worked with before and we couldn't have been more pleased. We worked with Hidden Garden Flowers for the first time and if you have ever heard of their reputation let me tell you they exceed it by leaps and bounds. Amy and Trisha are wonderfully creative and are just as nice as can be. We look forward to working with them on other weddings and events in the future. The flowers that they provided for Mely and Mike's wedding were stunning. Done in deep shades of red, the bouquets popped against the bride's and bridesmaid's gowns. The centerpieces were a combination of topiary and candelabra styles. The topiary centerpieces had a ball of deep red roses, and dahlias at the top with large pillar candles and the base was wrapped in spanish moss with votive candles surrounding the bottom. The candelabra centerpieces were also wrapped in spanish moss but the top had just the large pillar candles on them with roses and votive candles surrounding the bottom. It was definitely a sight to see!
To date this has to be our absolute favorite wedding. Not just because we were able to work with some wonderful new vendors, but Mely and Mike are such a fun couple and their family is full of love and life. It was such an honor to be a part of. I must mention that never in my 15 years in the wedding business have I seen the Hora go on for over 15 minutes! When all was said and done, I don't think an immediate family member was left that didn't go up in the chairs and there were 11 of them!
Yes a good time was had by all.
