Karl Lagerfeld‘s pre-fall runway show took place at the Grand Palais in Paris, with curved runways flanked by opulent long banquets decorated with beautiful fruits, flowers and crystal candelabras. The show’s theme was Bombay-meets-Paris and it was fabulous!
Classic Chanel tweed and chains were paired with bindi jewelry and the details of this collection were gorgeous. Overall, the proportions were in perfect balance and the rich fabrics in crepe wool, silk and mohair made everything look very luxurious. The dominant colors of the collection were cream, gold, white and black; but there were pops of color: hot pink and blue. Pretty colors for a Spring or Summer wedding! Read more...
This was a 1st birthday party and was so special for us to plan because we have planned many events for the family, including the baby shower last year!
We chose really sweet colors suitable for a little girl-pastel pink, green, and yellow, which were part of the design throughout the party. The inspiration was vintage carnivals which we incorporated in the stationery, vintage sodas, food stations, and the striped valances and umbrellas. So fun!
Arti and Raj’s reception was filled with fun, laughter and of course, lots of dancing! The purple and fuchsia color scheme was rich and energetic and we draped fabric around the entire room to create a cozy, warm feel. Beautiful designs were illuminated on the ceiling and dance floor and the floral design was contemporary, while maintaining a lush and romantic feel.

Arti and Raj’s ceremony was absolutely stunning! JW Marriott is the perfect venue for a wedding ceremony, with ample space and beautiful views. The guests sat shaded from the sun in a white canopy flanked with beautiful yellow roses. The mandap was decorated with columns of yellow roses and hanging crystals and orchids.
As you can see in these amazing photos by Joy Marie Photography, no detail was overlooked for Arti and Raj’s big day. It was a perfect ceremony filled with love and happiness! Congratulations Arti and Raj! Stay tuned next week for the gorgeous reception! Read more...
A few weeks ago we celebrated Madiha’s baby shower at the beautiful Hummingbird Nest Ranch. Although rain was in the forecast, it could not have been a prettier day…Thank God!
When I was thinking of a place to host the baby shower, the first venue that came to mind was Hummingbird. It is just so majestic and one of Madiha and my favorite venues in Los Angeles.
Since she is having a boy, the color scheme we chose to go with was blue and white. We used the gorgeous baja blue satin linen from Wildflower Linen which was complimented by the most adorable flowers from Shirvan Design.Read more...
