A Pop Up Wedding!

sitting in a tree — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 21:00:49 +0000

Have you heard? We've been cooking up something good over here! So excited to announce this little project we've been working on. Here are the deets!

torn between having a lovingly hand-crafted dream wedding, and saving some cash and (and sanity!) by eloping with your sweetheart? now you can have both!

here is how it works: we are offering a pop up wedding venue in place of running away to vegas or city hall with a hand picked cast of the raddest vendors in the wedding world.

we provide: a hand crafted and styled venue, celebratory cocktails and pre ceremony apps, a mini bouquet, photography coverage of your ceremony & a portrait session, a private wedding ceremony with officiant, live music, and downloadable announcements so you can tell everyone what it is you crazy kids have gone and done.

you bring: yourself and your fiance, a marriage license (we only need this if you want it to be legal. renewals and same sex unions welcome!), up to 12 of your favorite witnesses, some killer style, and all the love you got.

the whole shindig lasts about an hour and a half, start to finish. it will set you back 1200 bones. questions? comments? ready to sign up? reach us at: hello@popupwedding.com

Happy Holidays.

These are just too pretty not to share (even if they are my daughter). I had a last minute vision of a mini wonderland I wanted to create after seeing some tiny trees in Target and luckily, my gal Rachel from Studio Castillero, was happy to shoot it. And.... to say that she shot what I had imagined in my head would be an understatement. This girl delivers and we are so happy to have these images from Miss Valentine's first Christmas.

I hope you've all found yourself someplace magical for these last few days of December. It truly is my favorite time of year and I'm so sad to see it go...

Thanks for another great year and all your continued love and support!

A Mrs. Lilien Holiday.

Holiday shoots are some of my fave. I mean, we all know I'm a fan of a lot of sparkle and shine and there is no better time of year to show this off than the holidays. So getting to collaborate with Mrs. Lilien, Joielala, The Hostess Haven, & my husband, Mr. Austin Hendrix, on this fun shoot was a dream come true. Check out the full post on 100 Layer Cake & Mrs. Lilien's blog today.

Designing this one was a crazy amount of fun. The bride had a crazy amount of love for Free People which meant big & tiny dream catchers, afghans, tie-dyed linens & 60's wallpaper. Check out the rest of the images on Green Wedding Shoes & Studio Castillero's blog.

I had the pleasure of styling Pigment for their 5th Anniversary. It's my favorite place to shop in San Diego and the night was a huge amount of fun!

Rustic, romantic, and lyrical. The bridesmaids wore boots and we did a two day installation including a hanging program, suspended country lyrics, and a floating dessert bar. Run over to Green Wedding Shoes to see all the gorgeous details of Jen & Kyle's big day!

We are blessed with such amazing people in our lives. Friends that have photographed and captured so many parts milestones in our lives- our wedding, our home, our engagement, and now, our sweet love- Lucca Valentine. And on top of that, we got to make a second appearance on Glitter Guide. The first was here. Pretty rad. And then our friends at Studio Castillero capped it off with the sweetest words about who I call family on their blog today and even more images. We are so lucky. So, I'll be back to weddings in a bit, but for now, here's some of the personal stuff...

Today. We'll be here. San Diego.
