The venue itself, The Del Mar Race Track, provided the inspiration for a horse racing theme styled shoot. The color inspiration came from the 2017 Breeder’s Cup Logo at Del Mar, who hosted the prestigious race in 2017. The colors worked perfectly since it matched the colors of Del Mar and were ideal for a wedding shoot. Del Mar is known for “where the turf meets the surf” and the colors were a quintessential match for the surf and sun as well.

Music was the inspriation for this styled shoot. Lot of black and white were used and to offset that with a soft pretty pink. Keeping it more upscale than rock and roll by using brass ornaments and a lot of candles. Many aspects of music such as vinyl records, sheet music, concert tickets, etc. were incorporated. It is fun and whimsical, while still being elegant and classic.

Inspired by the fact that Bliss can be found from coast to coast. We find a lot of couples enjoy pulling the “beach” theme into their decor when saying “I Do” by the ocean. The coastal style can be displayed a bit different from the east coast to the west coast and here a bit of both are blended into a fresh, modern look. Using varying colors of the ocean from coast to coast, then bring in a cool pop of orange surrounding it with the dimension of whites & ivories in the florals. A key focal point was creating this ombre feel to the place setting to find the right balance of blues. Gold touches added a modern elegance to the table. There’s a comfy place for the guests to relax and the lounge setup of blue hues would give that atmosphere of ocean water. The bonus feature was the blue TapTruck which completed the setup, evoking a sense of the fun & casual party of a beach style wedding but dressed up with a bar front.

Florist: Haydee’s Creative Flowers
Coordinator/Rentals: TBD Design
The outdoors and the African savannah was the inspiration for this styled shoot. Starting with a romantic proposal. The greens and tan you see in the trees and dried grass. The orange, yellow and rust of the sunset. The focal point was the gorgeous arch that had the tans in the pampas grass with the sunset colors in the flowers. All of the flowers, including the bouquet, had pampas grass to tie it all together. The decor included touches like luggage and globes to really emphasis the travel aspect.
