Rose from Cuppacakes was awesome. She really cares and makes you feel secure. I loved her. She really took my ideas into consideration and the cupcakes tasted amazing and our guests are still raving about it. She made our cupcakes with love - so elegant. Not only did they look great, they were absolutely delicious.
Cliff did an awesome job on our invitations and save the dates. He really took the time to help us figure out what the theme and style of our wedding was going to be. Once we figured that out and let him know, he completely customized our invitations to the look and feel of the theme of our wedding. The invitations were absolutely gorgeous. It was exactly what we wanted, modern and elegant. We gave him basic direction and completely trusted him to run with it. As a result, I've gotten so many compliments on both the save the dates and invitations. I would definitely recommend Cliff Brunson to anyone looking for beautiful, one of a kind unique invitation.

We searched everywhere for the perfect venue for our wedding. The second I stepped into LBMA - I had a feeling that this was going to be the place. LBMA is a venue with so much character. It's not just a usual venue overlooking the ocean. It has a real unique feel about it but at the same time, it was a blank slate that you can do anything in the venue to make it "your wedding". For us, it was such a romantic, intimate setting that really set the mood for our wedding. The views are amazing and the whether you do an indoor or outdoor wedding, you do not have to do much to make it look spectacular because of the venue. The food was great. Sara is such a sweetheart. She was a little hard to get in touch with because she does all the events at the museum and always busy but once you get her, she is the biggest sweetheart and will get things done. We had 63 people at our wedding and this place was perfect.
Sara Newton did the bridal party, my mom and aunt's hair for the wedding. She did a great job. She was timely and really patient with all of us. She did our hair exactly the way I wanted it to and all the girls looked so beautiful. Please message me if you want to get her information. I found her through a referral.
From the moment we met Don Johnson, we knew right away he was the one we wanted to marry us. Don made us laugh, cry and feel inspired. Our guests say that it was one of the best ceremonies that they ever witnessed. People laughed, cried and felt great emotion. We really loved Don - he was AWESOME. I recommend him to anyone... and trust me, he is worth it.
Larry from Diamond DJ was awesome. He was the first vendor we chose in our wedding planning. He was based from a reference and I would refer him to all I know. He is a pro at his job. He also recommended our florist and officiant. Larry made us feel like nothing would go wrong at our wedding and nothing did. We were in great hands. It was also great that you can put together your customized playlist and submit everything electronically on his website. He was really easy to talk to and got back very promptly.
I met with so many vendors and it was Corinne who stole my heart. She made me feel super comfortable right away and she was straight up with me. I had a really low flower budget and I wanted something very simple. Corinne took my ideas and transformed it to something even more than we imagined it would be. It was super easy to speak with her via phone and email. Honestly she was just so personable and seemed so excited and supported that flowers was one last thing I worried about. I would recommend her to any bride. She went out of her way to make our wedding look beautiful and elegant. Corrine - we love you!
Mahtab made me cry. My dress came out perfect and she is just one of the nicest people you will ever meet. I bought my dress at Alfred Angelo and when they gave me the estimate for alterations, it was double what I paid for my dress and I walked out of there so angry and in tears thinking how can we afford to pay for this since me and FH are paying for the wedding ourselves. As soon as I met Mahtab - she was honest about the cost and quoted me less than half what I would have paid for at Alfred Angelo. Ladies - Mahtab is amazing, honest and worth the drive. I am so happy I found her.
I love Jessica! Not only do you feel like she can be your friend, she is a very genuine person. Jessica was very easy to communicate with and she would respond right away. We met with her a few times and she was very helpful with the timing and planning and intuitive to our needs. She was willing to work with our budget and customized something that worked for us. I like how natural and almost vintage her style is. At first we were afraid to do engagement shots because we thought we looked awkward but she made us feel at such ease and she also had it on her blog the next day! I love her and am happy we ended up with Jessica Quadra. I can't wait for the wedding - I know she is going to do an awesome job.
UPDATE:
I love Natalia. She went above and beyond her duties the day of my wedding. Not only did she really pay attention to detail and all my girls loved all their makeup - she was inspiring and helpful. Words can not express how grateful I was that Natalia was there to touch me up right before I walked down the aisle. Natalia - you are the bomb. I am so glad you were my MUA for the wedding day. I would recommend this woman over and over and over again.

From the moment I met Natalia, I felt immediately comfortable. I don't really wear a lot of makeup or know that much about it so she sat down with me and went through some photos of different styles that I would like. I really wanted something that looked more natural, but enough makeup to look great in pictures. She was patient with me in coming up with the look I wanted and had some great suggestions. The trial went great! Not only did she do a great job but she really helped me in deciding the look that I wanted, it was really a fun time as well, I really felt at ease. She was easy going, friendly and professional and her prices are very reasonable. She walked me through everything she was doing and she was completely open to change it to how I wanted to look. I am excited to use her as my makeup artist for my wedding.
