Ultimate San Diego Wedding

I was honored to be a part of this years Ultimate San Diego Wedding put on by Bridal Insider and donate my services to a lucky couple.  My good friend and the always fabulous coordinator Courtney Tibbets of After the Engagement was the talented  coordinator that designed every detail of this fun wedding brunch.

The flowers were a fun mix of yellows, pinks, reds and aquas which turned out to be the happiest color scheme I have ever gotten to work with.  Plus the guys wore gray which is always my favorite to add yellow and gray into a wedding.

Here are my favorite shots taken by La Vida Creations...

It was such an honor to work with all the wonderful vendors and I wish the bride and groom all the best.

Yellow and Gray weddings

I get a lot of searches for yellow and gray weddings through my website so I thought I would feature some of my own wedding pictures from my own yellow and gray wedding as well as some others I have done.

Here are my wedding pictures, courtesy of the wonderful Andy King Photography.

My bridesmaids wore yellow dresses and gray sweaters with yellow belts and gray shoes, the groomsmen wore different gray suits and yellow ties.  I even requested that the guests wear yellow, gray, black or white, it was a bold move but no one seemed to care.  The flowers were a combination of all yellow flowers and my bouquet had white peonies.  The tables were gray linens with yellow runners down the middle and collections of various sized and shaped clear vases with candles and silver platters with the yellow flowers.

Another yellow and gray wedding I did was this super cute wedding with a deeper shade of yellow, pictures by Eisenhower Photography...

The bride carried white hydrangea with yellow cymbidium orchids, yellow mini calla lilies, yellow billy balls, white lisianthus and large white gardenias.  The bridemaids we made of white hydrangea, yellow dahlias, yellow billy balls and green pittsoporum leaves as accent.  The groom had a white mini call lily and the groomsmen (not pictured) had yellow mini calla lilies.

 This bouquet was a combination of yellow china mums, yellow ranunculas, yellow button mums and yellow billy balls.

Overall, it is such a beautiful and un-expected color combination that is becoming more and more popular.
