Sunkissed White
The unbelievably warm & sunny weather we’re enjoying right now (mid-February global climate change craziness) harkens back to the gorgeous day Laura & Matt celebrated at La Valencia in La Jolla…Oh so SoCal… palm trees, sunshine, clear skies over the Pacific. Her elegant dress with crystalline T-back embellishment suited her vintage style perfectly. Laura preferred a clean, classic palette of white hydrangea, snowy avalanche roses, mini callas and fluffy china mums for her bridesmaids. For her own bouquet we pumped … Read more

Our groom Jimmy’s tailored boutonniere. … Read more
