Southern Cal Events 2010 Party!

Rae Florae was honored to design for the Southern California Meetings + Events most recent industry party celebrating the best of the best in every vendor category you can imagine!

The party took place at the gorgeous Park Hyatt Aviara in Carlsbad, California on a drizzly evening outside, but the amazing light show by PSAV Audio Visual kept us glowing all night!

Pink dahlias took center stage on the lounge furniture provided by Pacific Events Productions..

The entry was decked out with kiwi branches and dahlias, with magazine issues for everyone to take home.

Food stations and cocktail bars lent themselves to myriad mini-arrangements..

Safari Sunset in deep red, with hot pink celosia and coxcomb in mercury juleps..

More pink dahlias pave'd in peephole white ceramics..

& singletons in pink globes lit with river stones and candlelight.

Be sure to see the rest of the pictures on Facebook!

Thanks to Elle G Photography for capturing the fun!

Sweet Sweet Summer

Michelle's colors were so soft and gardeny, it reminds me of creamsicles :)

White scabiosa, orange dinner plate dahlias, yellow stock, and garden roses comprise her bouquet.

The vibrancy of bridesmaids~ deep orange ranunculus, multicolor dahlias, and copper clutches!

Cool blue with poppin' orange- bittersweet berries, purple thistle, and green dahlia buds..

The super sweet ceremony outside the La Jolla Women's Club- mossy cones with dahlias and vibernum berries line the aisle beneath bright red lanterns stung in the giant tree!
Simplicity of cocktail hour~ white stones, orchids, budvases, more dahlias.. oh summer.

Find your seat! Escort cards held by wine corks and wildflower bouquets in terracotta.

You couldn't get more fun loving then this- purple thistle and red dahlias going in every which way...

Floating candles nestled in coxcomb and celosia with enormous white dahlias...

Teddy bear sunflowers and Japaneses poppies add their unique textures to the mix above dangling candles.

Sweetheart Table: can you feel the glow. The shimmering navy pintuck linen sets off our white stones, orchid blooms..
Cake!

Congratulations Michelle & Josh xo

Bubblegum & Lime

Allison & Tyler celebrated their wedding at the Darlington House in La Jolla with a burst of citron and hot pink- perfect for a sunny, happy day.

Classically styled bouquets of mottled electric pink spray roses and green cymbidiums for the bride...

Spray roses and hypericum coffee berries for the Bridesmaids.

Sweet pomanders of kermit mums dangling on watermelon ribbons on chairs along the aisle.

Flower girls with big-girl bouquets are always adorable :)

Horsetail wrapped crystals with an orchid and fucshia rose bloom on the cocktail tables.

Clustered cylinders of floating candles with layered rose petals submerged in water.

Shades of bubblegum to strawberry and raspberry colored the table in locally-grown celosia with clean white and green stars-of-bethlehem for texture.Talk about a burst! Shocking pink nerines and garden spray roses adorned the top and tiers on either side of black bow-ties at each layer.
Congratulations to Allison & Tyler, who truly had one of the cutest ceremonies I've ever heard; and thank you Julia Ann Photography for the great pictures!
