Temecula Winery Wedding CakeAfter the hour drive up to Temecula I arrived at a private winery estate for tonight’s wedding. It is always interesting to follow the “referral trail” to find out where clients get your information. This wedding was a referral from a 2007 wedding… which was a referral from a 2002 wedding… which was a referral from a 1999 wedding! So basically this wedding is a direct result of a wedding I did over 11 years ago. It is always fun to keep track of these sort of things to see the progress you make over the years. The couple’s house located at the top of the hill overlooking their vineyards was amazing. We held the ceremony out front on the lawn. Cocktail hour moved around back to the pool area. Dinner was held inside the tent. This wedding was for a long time figure within the Billabong surf company. Many of the top surfboard shapers were in attendance tonight including: John Carper, Terry Martin, Pat Taylor (Best Man), and Rich “Toby” Pavel. Inside the tent the groom paid tribute to these shapers with a display of their work along with some background bio information. Dancing went extremely well tonight even with a longer 7 hour event. They really enjoyed family and friends who kept it going until the end. An excellent Temecula Winery Wedding Reception!

Bride SocksAnother weekday wedding! Tonight’s Wednesday wedding was held over at The Thursday Club in Point Loma. As guests arrived they were greeted outside by an enormous pink flamingo and a spring fairy. One of the most unique and cool things I have seen! You almost don’t really know what to say… The weather has been crazy the last few days so we had to make a decision to pull the ceremony inside at the last minute. The Thursday Club has an excellent outdoor space for ceremonies but the indoor space we used still has a view that nobody can deny! We were lucky enough to have some nice pockets of weather so they could sneak outside for photos. A few unique items included the custom made poker chips (since the groom likes poker) with each person’s name placed on the dinner plate to designate their seat, as well as, the fact that our bride actually wore her grandmother’s wedding dress! The style fit our bride & groom’s personality perfectly. I made a special announcement about her dress after the toasts and it was a nice personal moment between our bride and her grandmother. I used eight orange uplights that really added color to the white walls and highlighted some of the architecture on the stage. The little flower girls learned a dance before the wedding so they decided to get out there with all the other bridesmaids and perform! Dancing went really well tonight (especially for a Wednesday night). They kept it going until the end when our bride and groom exited to a tunnel of sparklers. A fun way to send them off.

Bali Hai Wedding Blue DressTonight we were over at the newly remodeled Bali Hai for a great wedding. The new remodel looks great and really updates the look and feel of the location. It makes the room seem twice as large as it used to. The ceremony was held off to the side of the restaurant facing the San Diego bay and the downtown skyline. A few interesting and fun elements to this wedding included: the groom walking into the ceremony to an instrumental version of the song: “The Final Countdown” which got a laugh out of quite a few people, the bride wore a very unique grey-ish blue wedding dress that really stood out from the “norm”, the groom does custom tile and stone work so the groom’s cake had blue waves made out of small square sugar tiles like a mosaic, root beer floats were served for dessert, the couple is really into tandem bicycles so they had their old-school tandem outside on display and I projected a custom image of a tandem bicycle down onto the dance floor, for some unknown reason a group of younger guests changed into disco style clothes during open dancing and surprised everyone on the dance floor with their stylish moves, the bride’s father is a technical genius so he put together a full on photo booth with props and backdrop. Each guest was able to take home printed photo booth style photos from the evening. The uplights around the room added some color to the walls and went well with the bride’s bouquet.

Extras Provided: 8 uplights, custom monogram projection, disco ball

Admiral Baker Clubhouse - Wedding CakeThis evening’s wedding was held at the Admiral Baker Clubhouse and golf course. I started off with providing the ceremony music and microphones outside on the patio. After the ceremony guests moved to the other end of the patio for the cocktail hour with a great view of the golf course. Once inside the ballroom I projected a slide show that they created. It was a nice way to start off the reception. I then announced our newly married couple into the room. They went to their sweetheart table and I invited their best man and maid of honor up to start off the toasts. After the meal dancing began with their first dance to: “Bless The Broken Road” – Rascal Flatts. We cut the cake after about 45 minutes of solid dancing. They had one of the most unique cake knife and server sets I have seen yet. It was an organic shaped set by Nambé and can be seen in the picture below. Tonight was another amazing night on the dance floor. Sometimes a Sunday night wedding will not have the same type of party atmosphere as a Saturday night wedding. This definitely was not the case with this group. They kept it going until 10pm ending time. They had a blast singing along with the last dance song our couple picked out: “Bohemian Rhapsody” – Queen. It was one of the best “last dances” I’ve seen at a wedding.
