Coming Up: Fizz & Frills

 

So happy to announce that honey my heart will be part of fizz & frills: A Wedding Marketplace this September. We participated in the inaugural event last summer (see our post about it here) and had the best time meeting brides, sipping of fizzy drinks, and selling our frills up in San Francisco. Today we are excited and can't wait to meet more brides, be inspired by the amazing style of the event, and to share our new heart shaped frills in Pasadena.

Below is a lovely video of last year's event. 

Hooray for love! Happy weekend.

Fizz & Frills Wedding Marketplace

We had visited San Francisco at the beginning of August to participate in fizz & frills: A Wedding Market Place. Held at blu bungalow on Union Street, fizz & frills was 2-day event hosted by Utterly Engaged and Lovely Jubilee that featured a pop up shop of independent designers, make up and hair stations, drinks and desserts, and wonderful conversations. It was such a stylish and well designed fete for brides and frill seekers.


The colors of the event were navy blue, coral, and creamy white. It is one of my favorite color combos and I liked seeing it in various details throughout the event.




Fizzy drinks!




Geronimo Balloons! I need one of these in my living room.


There were plenty of conversations, diy project, and a Q&A about being brides and the first year of marriage. I really loved the community aspect of it.


Sweet accessories for your wedding day carried in The Collection Event Studio. I totally wanted the coral clutch.


Over the Moon Vintage Rentals had lots of fun supplies, tags, accessories to decorate your venue. I'm even considering some for my table design.


Statement necklaces by Margaret Elizabeth.


Very awesome personalized boutonnieres for the groom and groomsmen by Fritts Rosenow. Some favorites include a boom box, sailboat, Super Mario, and SF Giants logo with baseball bat. I love that this is extra flair for the men and can be worn over and over.


My table. When I heard the event was at blu bungalow I decided to change the colors my heart displays to shades of blue. It actually matched nicely with the light pink polka dot table cloth and paper flowers provided to us.


I have been so inspired since returning from fizz & frills. The design and details, caliber of event, and lovely ladies who created the event have made my August a month full of ideas and work towards the growth of honey my heart. I can't wait to work with them all again.

You can check out some amazing photos and a recap from the event in issue 16 (pg 104) of Utterly Engaged.

Wedding at the SB Historical Museum

One of my college friends was married in Santa Barbara last weekend. It was a beautiful celebration, styled perfectly with the couple's personalities shining through, and a great reunion. I love weddings, love, and was so happy to share in this fete.


The wedding was held at the SB Historical Museum (blogged here) It's such a serene place, very SB, very nice. The reception held in a lower courtyard and the couple stood below an awesome pergola to frame the scene.




Groom and groomsmen await.


Bride and her parents. So happy!


They did a sand ceremony, mixing 2 different colored sands into one jar to symbolize the unity of the couple. It's one of my favorite rituals to see at weddings. And loved that they used blue and yellow, UCSB colors!


Kiss! Officially husband and wife.


Pinata card box. Love this idea and all of the bright colors. The reception was decorated in such festive colors and had an Old Spanish Days feel/theme. It was quite perfect for the location.






The salsa bar open during the reggae cocktail hour offered lots of flavors to enjoy. I loved the corn salsa and the mango salsa.


Details of the bride's bouquet. So many amazing colors and textures in these flowers!


Tile place cards. Once you find your name and table assignment you flip the tile over. When all the tiles are flipped over their designs show and create a beautiful and large mural.


A rainbow of banners and lights hung festively above the reception site.


I loved the scene. It's so SB.


My tile, mini cacti, and mason jar cocktail.


Bride and me. Her style definitely shone through in her wedding day attire.








Mother-Son and Father-Daughter danced to "Stand by Me"


Sun's going down. I really love the banners.


Dancing time!




Lighting sparklers for the couple's exit!



It was such an amazing day and night. I love every detail and the great atmosphere created. Huge congrats to A & B!

The Bride Wore...

A close high school friend was married in May. I blogged about her wedding here, and wanted to share some of her photographer's shots. She's beautiful, kind, funny, so happy, and touched my heart when she chose to wear honey my heart as her wedding day jewelry.




The bride wore a pair of gold bead/tiny leaf earrings, triple sparkle necklace, and single sparkle bracelet. Her maid of honor wore a puffy heart necklace.

I am beyond honored to be part of their special day.

A Los Angeles Wedding

We celebrated the wedding of a dear friend last Saturday. Theresa married her love, Mike, and it was beautiful!


The ceremony took place at the Cathedral of our Lady of the Angels in downtown LA. It is such a beautiful, modern, bright, and open space.


Bride and her happy parents!


Some prayers. Note the bridesmaids in dresses of varying style and shade of green. They wore nude flats and carried the most luxurious pink peony bouquets.


A blessing.


Rings.


Lighting of the unity candle.




The Mr. and Mrs! Hooray.


Directly following the ceremony, we headed over to the Museum of Natural History for the reception. It was another great location.


I love the dinosaurs that greet you at the entrance.


Guests were ushered into the whale room to for guest book signing and to pick up table assignments.


Thumb print tree guest book. I loved this idea! The tree looks so full after everyone signed :)


Ceiling of the rotunda room where we enjoyed cocktails.


Wedding cake in front of some buffalo in the North American Mammal room.


I absolutely adore these corgi cake toppers. Theresa and Mike have 2 cute corgis, so this cake topper is just perfect for them.


Ready to throw the bouquet.


Our mini hs reunion :)


Photo booth fun.

I really love weddings and was so happy to attend another wonderful one. This post makes me reminiscent of my wedding blogging days :)

Happy Tuesday everyone.
