Cathy&Ray and the Vineyard

I loved working with Cathy and Ray. They were very easy going, very friendly and a very handsome couple. They are so simple, yet so elegant in nature. I loved visiting them in Fullerton, CA mostly at Cathy's office. 

Their love story, if not mistaken, all started in College at Cal State University of Fullerton. They've been together since then and in October 10, 2009 they met together at Mission Del Rey in Escondido, CA to make their love for each other official through marriage.

I wasn't able to view the ceremony since I was with my other team at the reception site, which was held at the Orfilia Vineyards also in Escondido, CA. I loved this place. I never knew that San Diego even had a vineyard. It was a beautiful day. The weather was perfect, sunny, breezy and above all of that were perfect blue skies.

This was the furthest event site for BFD. It was quite a challenge, but thankfully I had a great team!!! We had a lot of fun working Cathy & Ray's wedding day.

Thank you to you both for choosing Bloomeria~Floral Design to be a part of such a special day in your lives. May your journey together be forever filled with love and endless happiness.

Michelle & Sunday

One of the many things I love about what I do, is meeting the different couples who help inspire me to fall in love and find my someone I can plan such a special day with and of course spend the rest of my life with...

I found myself very privileged to have been chosen by Michelle & Sunday to do their wedding. I have known them for quite some time. We share some of the same friends and go to the same Church. I never really got to know them at a personal level, but since they chose BFD to do their flowers, I was happy to get to know them a little more! 

They are the greatest people. The greatest couple! Michelle and I got a long really well. It's really cute how they both have their own style that make them very unique. I knew I'd have to really impress them by making sure I reflect their style in the floral designs I would be coming up with for their wedding. I love how they trusted me with what I can do.

Luckily BFD was invited to dine with the couple during their reception at the Bowers Museum in Santa Ana, CA. The beautiful Bride spotted me and asked me to come to her. I was hesitant, quite scared that maybe she didn't like the work. But as I made my way to her, she applauded me. I wanted to cry. 

It's times like these that make me really happy that I've made someone else happy on probably one of the biggest days of their lives.

Thank you! Thank you again to Michelle & Sunday!

Wow I posted!

I have just been so busy, haven't had the time to sit and blog. It makes me sad. But of course life goes on and here I am finally blogging. There are so many wedding's I'd like to blog on, but while I wait to load up pictures, I'll just update on what I've been up to.

In the the midst of all the chaos life brings, I was able to sneak away for 8 days and 7 nights to paradise. Where? Hawaii! My Best Friend gave me tickets for us to go back in April for my birthday. August couldn't have come faster! Well it finally did and we went along with 2 of our other girlfriends. We spent half our trip in Waikiki and the other half in Maui. I've been to Waikiki before, this was my very first time in Maui and I absolutely fell in love. In all honesty, there was nothing to do! But that was the best part! Nothing to do, meant so much peace and clarity for me.

I'm not going to lie and say that our patience wasn't tested every now and then. Come on! We're girls. Girls can get catty. But despite that, we still had a good time and my love for these girls got even bigger. 

I love taking vacations and I wish that I could take more vacay's, hopefully my hard work will pay off and my life will totally take me places...

For now a vacation once a year is a great goal.

My Sister's Married

It still brings me to tears when I think about my Sisters Wedding. She was wed on Saturday, July 4th 2009. Not too long ago, but still seems like it was yesterday I watched her walk down the aisle.

As I mentioned in my Maid of Honor speech, I really didn't know how to feel about her getting married. It's always been the 3 of us, My Mom, my Sister and ME! When I saw her walk down the aisle I couldn't hold back the tears because she was one beautiful bride. I've been to so many weddings, witnessed many vows exchanged, but this one was different because this one was my Sister!

My heart poured with love and happiness for her and her new husband. I now have a brother. Still trying to get use to that, but now I know how it truly feels to love a sister. I felt like I gave away my room mate, my "punching bag", my little sister! But I know that this will only bring us closer. Good things come when you least expect it. I'm so glad my sister found her one and only.

The wedding reception was at The Rococo Room in Pasadena, CA. It was a great place with a great STAFF! Bloomeria~Floral Design was all over this event. My team consisted of my bestest friends. It was awesome!  I'm so thankful for all the help BFD got on that day and all the love and support my family received from everyone!

Here's a glimpse of my sisters wedding... BFD made sure there was a lot of love put into it... I hope it showed...
