The Knot New York

This season we are published in, "The Knot Magazine New York," for Jackie & Michael's wedding Jackie is a fashion account executive & Michael is in financial sales. They met in college, when Jackie was working at the front desk of the dorms, and Michael showed up wearing only a towel, begging for a spare key. His roomate had locked him out of their room, mid-shower. A while later, when a tornado hit the campus, destroying Michael's college apartment, they met again that night at a local watering hole. Since then, they have never looked back. Michael proposed to her in Central Park & they wed at VIP Country Club in New Rochelle, NY. Jackie's dress is a Monique Lhuillier, her shoes Valentino. Her make-up was done by Ilise Harris

The Event Gallery Opening

This past Wednesday, was Your Wedding Day Magazine Spring 2009 Release Celebration & Event Gallery Grand Opening! Nicole & I took pictures for the event and are very excited to be apart of the Event Gallery here in Santa Barbara. The event was held at The Santa Barbara Historical Museum. There were some great sponsors that created a beautiful event. Here are some shots of the night. Town & Country Event Rentals put up this really cool clear tent over the entire event. Thea on the left, who hosted this event, is Editor In Chief of, Your Wedding Day Magazine. Sarah & Samantha from Je Fais Weddings created my favorite table. See below Je Fais also put together this one. Ariel owner of Soiree Design Group & her husband Camilla Svensson Burns Couture Floral Designs did all of the flowers, and Jill from La Fleur Weddings, designed the two tables below. All of the food from Good Gracious Events was so unique. Very different tastes from the usual cocktail party food. Very good! Michael & Anna Costa, great photographers around here and also great friends of ours. 11H Entertainment did all of the music. It was cool cause they had a DJ, and then they layered live horns and drums over it. Afterwards, people went over to check out the new Event Gallery space across the street. We are really excited to be apart of it! This outside area of the Event Gallery Rhonda on the right owns Chameleon Chairs. Here's Colette, owner of La Fete Weddings, one of the top planners in Santa Barbara Nicole & Me done after the shoot and ready to join the party!
