CONGRATULATIONS KATIE AND STEVE!

Once October rolled around and we thought we'd closed the chapter on our 2011 wedding season, all of a sudden the phone rang. It was Katie, a bride who was only a month away from her wedding and had a falling-out with her previous wedding coordinator. She was very upset and in need of a coordinator who could jump in right away and help her and her mother tie up all their loose ends. I arranged a meeting with them that weekend and we began immediately. Katie and her mother Christine had done a fabulous job with all their plans and I was very excited to be getting involved.

 Katie and Steve chose to have a Mass at St. Maximilian Kolbe Church followed by a "Christmas at the Beach" reception at The Malibu West Beach Club. Katie brought her love of evergreens and pine cones to the beach club where her brother had been married years before and the two themes meshed surprisingly well.

Katie's parents let us know about a very special surprise they planned for Katie and her new husband Steve. They had invited the USC marching band to come for a surprise performance. We decided that just after dinner and before the dancefloor opened would be the perfect time and it was a blast greeting them at the door and sneaking them into the staging room. I'll admit that it was tough being amongst all that Trojan pride (being a very proud Bruin myself) but I got over it just long enough to pull the big surprise off without a hitch. Katie, a proud Trojan and huge fan of the band, was absolutely floored when the roar of the trumpets echoed in the room as the band marched in. They played for a good 15 minutes and Katie danced like a crazed fan the entire time. She couldn't have loved it more and it was amazing to watch!

It was AWESOME helping to pull this fantastic event off in the final month and it was such an honor being asked to step in at such a crucial time. We were thrilled to have been able to help and it was the perfect close of our 2011 season.

Thanks so much to Heidi Ryder Photography for these gorgeous photos!

 

 

And here is the gorgeous video from JakPhoto. We're so happy the videographer took our suggestion and used the audio of the bridesmaids, maid of honor, and the bride's mother signing "Going to the Chapel." It was such a beautiful moment when they sang it to Katie as she prepared to walk down the aisle. Such a lovely video!
