When one of our beloved industry friends and cherished colleagues has a celebration, we are beyond thrilled to pour blessings upon them! This French-inspired baby shower was for one of our nearest and dearest, Larrissa and Johnny of Inviting Occasion. With stunning decor (naturally), and a slew of amazing vendors who came together to love on the new bebe, we were delighted and honored to provide sweet and savory treats!

While we take food very seriously around here, we’re always down to play around with food and love getting inspired by our client’s favorites things – whether it’s a traditional dish, or in this case, a rather unconventional source of inspiration: Kanye West. We had a special VIP tasting and used this opportunity to showcase our client’s love of Kanye. We hope you enjoy!

With festival season even bigger than ever this year, we wanted to give our wedding industry friends a party that gave Indio a run for its money! Collaborating with Danielle over at Leilani Weddings, the line-up was full of headliners and crowd-pleasing favorites!

We solemnly swear we are up to no good with this absolutely stunning Harry Potter-inspired wedding. Guests showed up donning their favorite house attire (and even some death eaters in the mix), sipped on potions during cocktail hour, and had chocolate frogs as favors at each place setting. Cindy and Matt showcased their love for the wizarding world while being ultra fashionable and providing an epic guest experience.

Sometimes the magic just fits – Photographer Nirav Patel matched the vibe of the wedding seamlessly and captured these magical images of the day:

You may have seen them over on Martha Stewart Weddings, BuzzFeed, or Huffington Post. If not, maybe Pop Sugar or Refinery 29 caught your fancy!

Kudos to this epic crew of vendors for all the magic:
