MILITARY MONDAYS – Another great way to start the week! Michael and Silky enjoyed their moment at Sunset in La Jolla with family and friends on hand to help share in the magic. It was one of those magic moments by adding a few of my Hero’s like Francesca, the solo violinist from Caprice Strings, Rob Andrew Photography and a beautiful bouquet created and donated by Katrina O’Donnell Custom Florals. Thank you everyone for being part of the magic and Thank you Michael for your service to our country!

Military Mondays™ is just a small way for me to give back to our hero’s by offer free elopement services to any and all full time active military every Monday. I also ask local wedding professionals to help me serve those that serve us by donating their time and talents to these wonderful couples. Photographers, Videographers, Florists and Musicians. Each one of these professionals gives so much and I am humbled and grateful for their participation. for more information, please visit http://www.freemilitaryelopement.com

TUESDAY – A wonderful day on  Coronado Island. First, a mid day Elope to Coronado celebration with Erin  and Michael, a wonderful couple from San Francisco!

Then at Sunset, I had the pleasure to share in the Elope to Coronado celebration with Lyndsey and Nathan. She is from TN and he is stationed at TwentyNine Palms.

.

FRIDAY – One of the best ways to kick off a Holiday weekend… 3 celebrations back on Coronado Island! First, the Elope to Coronado celebration of Larry and Annette. A wonderful couple for AZ that wanted to make their moment happen, feet in the sand along the ocean rather than the desert! I agree, much better…

Then, the Elope to Coronado Vow Renewal celebration of Jonathan and Marisa. They are celebrating their 5th year and plan on doing this every 5 years at a different beach. I think this is an awesome way to keep the magic of the moment alive!

Then, a private and confidential Elope to Coronado celebration. Jason and Kristina are a wonderful couple that have been together for so long, they are so meant to be!

Vendor Shout Out to Hal Martin and Focus-On-U Photography.

SUNDAY – Off to the coast to share the moment with Karen and Duane at the Sheraton Carlsbad. This is such a beautiful location with a wonderful view and was just so warm and personal.

Vendor Shout Outs: Melissa at I Do… Weddings!, Mick at Elite British DJ, Mike and Janis from True Photography and the ladies of Caprice Strings.

Update: One 5 star review on Yelp.com this week!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wednesday - I was invited by Tracy and Joy at the La Jolla Cove Suites to take part in their 3rd annual open house “Romance By The Sea; a wedding to remeber” bridal show. What an awesome location for a bridal show sitting rooftop at sunset on La Jolla Cove!

Thursday - A meeting with Adam and Sarah to discuss their big day in December at Humphry’s Half Moon Bay.

Friday - I drove to San Juan Capistrano to meet with Jennifer (http://www.jennymcmastersphotography.com), a photographer I met last week at a wedding at Falkner Winery in Temecula. I am hoping to work with her again very soon. On the way back home I met with DJ friend Preston Foreman to talk over upcoming wedding ideas.

Saturday - A real busy day for me… First a meeting with Christopher and Rosemary to talk over their upcoming Scottish Wedding Ceremony in Glendale next month. The off to the beautiful beach at the Hotel Del Coronado where I shared an intimate moment with old Radio and TV friend Gary Kelley, his beautiful wife Stacy and their four children for their 10th Anniversary Vow renewals. I was most honored to have been asked to share in this celebration.

Then, moments later, a Elope to Coronado moment with Ophelia and Cortez with their family and friends.. This was a most awesome celebration. I was thrilled to be part of this celebration as it seems the “Other” elopement service in town called and canceled their services on them and I was able to be of service to make sure their Special moment still happened.

Not to throw stones, but I encourage couples to review the “other” elopement service on Yelp.com before they decide. Here is the LINK. After the elopement I was off to Del Mar for a celebration with Benjamin and Kaci at Seagrove Park. This is a most beautiful location iwth a large group of family and friends.

I had the honor to work with Victoria from Theory Wedding and Events and one of my favorite guitarists, Miles Moynier at this celebration and can’t wait to work with them again soon.

Then, off to the new Sheraton Carlsbad for the wedding celebration of David and Jennifer. What a fun couple and a wonderful group of family and friends to share in the moment.

Worked with good friend and florist Amanda and Jose from BotanicAllure which is always a pleasure!

Sunday - Happy Mother’s Day…..

Another great week to come, I can’t wait…..

Blessings,
