For my “Do It Yourself” DIY brides, you have to check out Utterly Engaged Online E-Magazine’s 2nd issue for DIY wedding ideas from florist decorations and ideas to trendy wedding gown fashions.  Check out their 2nd issues at Utterly Engaged. This special issue features their recent launch party in Fullerton at the Tranquil Tea Lounge, and special thanks to the All Made Up Team.

A couple of months ago, Melissa, got  married in Santa Monica at the Loew’s Hotel. The day was a beautiful cool breezy perfect day, for a perfect ‘breezy blue’ theme wedding. I can’t express how beautiful Melissa’s bright blue-green eyes are and she looked stunning on her wedding day.  We had the pleasure working with Melissa and her bridal party.  Melissa choose turquoise for the color of wedding and it just came out beautifully!  The turquoise and aqua color combination of the wedding was beautiful!

The lovely couple tied the knot at Loew’s Hotel in Santa Monica- a sleek, modern boutique hotel with the most amazing view of the ocean. Kristin @ The Treasured Petals did a FABULOUS job on the flowers for this wedding and tying in the theme colors perfectly.   The hotel decor and the colors compliment the trendy look of the hotel and capture the laid back, breezy feel of Santa Monica.  Thanks Kristin for sharing such a wonderful post for all of us.

We can’t help but rave about the amazing planner, Christina from Simply Modern Weddings. She was always so thorough, punctual, professional, and sweet!

The following pictures below are from Trista Lerit’s blog. Trista Lerit (Wedding Photographer) is an amazing photographer in Southern California, Orange County and Los Angeles County.   The All Made Up Team had the pleasure of working on Melissa’s hair and makeup and the bridal party for this beautiful day.

Kristin Brancaleone of The Treasured Petal, created a “Sex In the City Bouquet” for our last workshop I worked on with Jasmine Star Photographer, called “The Workshop” focusing on branding for photographers.

Kristin a fabulous florist in Orange County created a bouquet, that was Sex In the City inspired by choosing unique elements that stand-out, for example pink flowers with playful textures and interesting shapes. The big pink princess protea in the middle is the star of the bouquet.  Including gathered fuchsia gloriosa lilies, sweet peas, ranuncula, Italian heather (hot stuff!), and perfect white hyacinth.

The ostrich and polka dotted guinea feathers complimented the black feathery center of the protea and added a little whimsy and movement to the bouquet.  It was tied  with white satin, draped it with black beads and more guinea feathers around the base. Black cocque tail feathers fluttering out from the bottom,  like  a feather duster that one of those jaunty little French maids might carry. LOL!

For all you Carry Bradshaw fans, we all hope you like this trendy, youthful, and fabulous Sex In the City inspired bouquet created for this special photo shoot with Jasmine Star and the All Made Up Team!  Thank you Kristin for always producing creative and unique masterpieces…we LOVE YOU!!!

Thank you Janie from The Bride’s Cafe for writing such a great post about our Sex In the City inspired bouquet explaining all the special elements in this beautiful bouquet.  For more information about this post, please check out Janie’s Medley @ The Bride’s Cafe.

The All Made Up Team had another great and fun workshop we did with Jasmine Star Photographer at her photographer seminar that focused on branding for photographers called “The Workshop” by Jasmine Star.  The photographer workshop targeted intermediate and experienced photographers who wanted to learn how to better brand themselves.  The photographer workshop focused in finding yourself and your style and learn creative and effective ways to brand your signature style and your business better.  The photographer workshop was located in Southern California, (Socal, CA) in the city of Irvine.

Though the day was warm in sunny Southern California for our lovely models below, Melinda and Vern, but it was bearable for all.  This was Jasmine Star’s third workshop and I enjoyed working on all the make-up and hair themes, looks, and designs with her.  She is a FABULOUS photographer and below are some the photos I posted on my blog from Jasmine Star’s blog.

The theme from this workshop was vintage, and really worked around Melinda’s beautiful Monique Lhuillier signature style lace couture wedding gown and incorporated lots of gold in her accessories.  The Monique Lhuillier wedding gown was elegant, classic, and timeless on Melinda.  The form fitting delicate Monique Lhuillier signature lace dress fit Melinda like a glove and essentuateed every curve on her tall slender physique.

Floral bouquet was vintage inspired  by Carissa @ JLDesigns.com

Every year the Southern California Vietnamese community host a Lunar New Year Tet Beauty Pageant in Garden Grove, CA next to Bolsa High School and Garden Grove Park.  I’ve been a part of the beauty pageant for the past 3  year now and the UVSA (Vietnamese Student Association) have done a great job organizing this year TET event.

Tết, the Lunar New Year, marks the beginning of spring and is the most observed holiday within the Vietnamese community. As a means to preserve culture, the Vietnamese American community celebrates Tết through a vibrant array of traditional foods, ceremonies, and customs.

The Union of Vietnamese Student Associations (UVSA) is proud to host  the Tết Festival of Southern California annually. UVSA staff and members contribute thousands of hours organizing the festival as a means to strengthen cultural awareness among the youth, build future leaders for the community, and fund community programs and projects across the Southern California region. Attracting over 100,000 patrons annually, the Tết Festival of Southern Californa remains the largest Tết Festival and Vietnamese cultural event outside of Vietnam.
