It was a long drive but well worth the effort once I arrived. The wedding was at a private estate tonight with the reception held in an enormous 250 person clear tent out on a large grassy area just beyond the pool. There were many unique and personal touches to this wedding. To start with the gifts were all dropped off in a wooden sailboat leaning on it’s side next to the guest book. The ceremony was on a large grassy hill under a huge tree which looked amazing as the backdrop. Cocktail hour was held out by the pool with one of my favorite items… a full sushi bar. The tables looked amazing in the large clear tent with five hanging chandeliers. The black and white checkered dance floor added a fun element. The candy bar had older vintage style candy to go along with their theme. The food was amazing (a four course meal as you can see by the silverware on the tables). Dinner took over two hours so it was a bit long but guests did not walk away hungry. Later on in the evening milk and cookies were brought out as a surprise for the groom (his favorite). Dancing went really well despite dinner taking up so much time. They were ready to have some fun. It tapered off towards the end but I think that was because guests had to drive a long way home. A very impressive wedding to say the least.

I am excited that one of my weddings this last year is featured in the recent Ceremony Magazine. This publication is very exclusive featuring only the best wedding professionals and venues. It is exciting because you submit it but you have no idea if it will get published until the magazine comes out. Here is a link to the featured article: Christy & Josh’s Wedding
Enjoy!

Another amazing group tonight! You know you are at a great place when you pull up to the Grande Colonial in La Jolla and there are two Ferrari’s and a Lamborghini sitting out front. It was a smaller group of about 80 people. The Grande Colonial is an excellent place for this size of group because they have different areas to create interest. Cocktail hour and dinner were held outside on the balcony and patio area. Dancing moved inside later on. The bride and groom were very specific with their music requests. It was probably some of the most unique and unusual music I have ever played at a wedding. I wasn’t too sure how all of this music would play out at the event since many of the artists and songs were most likely unfamiliar to their guests (Sound Tribe Sector 9, Pnuma Trio, Nosaj Thing, etc.). I was pleasantly surprised because it really worked well for their group. Everyone had an open mind and enjoyed it (they didn’t have to hear the ultra cliche’ songs in order to dance which is normally difficult for Americans). Highlights included: refreshing/unique music with an electronic twist, I spotlighted the cake which really made it stand out once the sun went down (see photo above), the water effect lighting added some movement and color to the dance floor area, the bride had on a pair of excellent Christian Louboutin heels that the photographer Cary Pennington kept trying to sneak shots of, the coordinators from Red Letter Days helped keep the evening (and guests) on track! Excellent wedding!

Tonight’s monthly N.A.C.E. (National Association of Catering Executives) meeting was at the Crowne Plaza Hotel. The cocktail hour featured a full sushi bar and excellent tray passed appetizers. We then moved into another ballroom for a dinner consisting of duck and salmon. Tonight the topic was all about getting the most out of N.A.C.E. and what topics/guest speakers we would like to see in the future.

The KNOT.com hosted an invite only vendor party tonight at the Inn At Rancho Santa Fe. They gave a 30 minute presentation on local, as well as, national wedding trends and statistics. Pretty amazing information that they can gather through their website and surveys. The rest of the evening was spent around the pool socializing and networking with other wedding vendors. Unique and tasty food was provided by Chile Co. Catering.

Tonight’s monthly N.A.C.E. (National Association of Catering Executives) meeting was held out at the Stone Brewery World Bistro & Gardens in Escondido. A beautiful $14 million brewery and a one-acre lush beer garden. The restaurant is a mixture of stainless steel, concrete, wood and stone. “Sam The Cooking Guy” was out guest speaker. He gave an excellent cooking presentation on how to keep it simple and make it a “hands on” experience.

Also a fun experience for those over 21 during the summer: Stone Late Night Movies. Bring your lawn chairs and blankets then grab a beer down in the gardens for a classic movie on the 12 foot screen!

Tonight’s N.A.C.E. (National Association of Catering Executives) Meeting was held at the Omni Hotel Downtown. A great place right next to the ballpark. The international guest speaker and author Susan Clarke spoke about “Positive Attitudes: The Fun-Damentals of Work” which emphasized the importance of maintaining positive values by sharing real-life examples of how to better enjoy the work environment through finding humor in everyday rituals. Susan touched on attitude adjustment, values, positive energy, and internal and external customer loyalty.
