I love working with different people to plan their weddings because they always bring me new ideas or inspiring stories, which are very important for all creative types. Linda and Roland are definitely one of the couples who amazed me! With the help of Amy Tam, their event planner, Linda and Roland created a truly one of a kind wedding with LEGO!! Look at their gorgeous cake and the tiny hotel house for their place card table. And the fun didn’t stop here. There were also a Photo Booth, a Balloon Artist and a Lion Dance show!! Sound like a busy night for all the guests!

These tall glass arrangements transformed the empty space into a fun and interesting piece to look at. As these mini green apples and white orchids arrangements are lining up together like an unique wall art, they are making a powerful first impression, and it also helps to bring out the beautiful color and texture of the tiles.

Nestldown is just a minute away from the Silicon Valley, but it is nothing like the busy city. Walking down the road, you will be surrounded by ponds, waterfalls and many many redwood trees. With the harpist’s music as background, this is really a perfect place for a peaceful and heavenly ceremony.

I am so happy that I finally got some of the pictures from Nancy and Edward today. They are so pretty, as I expected. =P
Like many couples, Nancy and Edward wanted us to design a modern celebration with a touch of the traditions. We know Red means luck in Chinese cultures, and the Ritz Carlton in San Francisco is a place that resemblances romantic elegance, so our goal was to combine these two concepts . I picked to the carmel iron lanterns to be used for their ceremony to romantize and lighten up the tent a bit. The table centerpieces were designed by Canna.

Many people ask us how to turn the traditional floral art into something personal and unique. My answer is short and simple. It is all came from you guys. Your stories inspire us to continue to explore and to create something new. Our ideas may come from your love of fruity oranges or a piece of jewelry that you always wear. I am not kidding. Many great designs are came from little details.

Orange is my bff’s favorite color as it is happy and energetic, but she couldn’t use it for her wedding as her parents wanted everything in red and red only. So, I was a bit hesitated to share these beautiful pictures by John as I am sure my BFF would be a bit disappointed. But oh well, maybe I just send you something in orange this Christmas to make up your loss. =P

Sugar plum is definitely the color for Jaclyn and John and we are so thrilled to help them with their wedding decor as we love the Carneros Innand we definitely won’t mind visiting Napa!! Before the setup, Gary helped Canna and I took some pictures at the Apple Orchard. We are still waiting for the pictures from Anna Kuperberg Photography, but I am going to share with you some of the pictures Gary took. Of course, it is nothing compared to Anna’s ones. She is my favorite photographer and her works has appeared in many wedding magazines and is in the permanent collections of the Philadelphia Art Museum and the St. Louis Art Museum.
