Maria + Anton, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Church and the Resort at Pelican Hill

Maria and Anton had a truly international affair for their gorgeous April wedding at the Resort at Pelican Hill. Guests from pretty much every continent flew in just for the occasion! In chatting with them I encountered visitors from Canada, the UK, Slovakia and even Dubai in attendance. That speaks so greatly to the character of these two, and shows just how captivating of individuals they are since all their loved ones would cross oceans to be there in support of their journey together. And talk about a real treat for all the guests- I cannot say enough good things about Pelican Hill. It is a venue truly in a league of its own...

Thanks to Maria and Anton's good friend and photographer Joshua Komanapalli for being on hand to capture the day on film. Here are some of the images from the day for you to enjoy:



Loved Maria's Giuseppe Zanotti heels- so SO gorgeous.


The bouquets (courtesy of Square Root) were so elegant and sophisticated; perfect for Maria and her girls!


Maria's niece was such an adorable flower girl- and she definitely loved the camera. Too cute:)


Something blue was a ring given to Maria by her father.





Married!







The two shared a waltz to the tune of a traditional Slovakian wedding song for their first dance. Such a timeless and enchanting moment- it seemed as though time stood still for a moment as they glided across the dance floor.



Many laughs were shared as family and friends toasted the couple and enjoyed the decadent four course meal.





They were a dancing group- big time! I don't think I saw the floor empty for a single song...



The night was complete when Maria changed into a gorgeous, elaborate sari towards the end of the evening- she was absolutely breathtaking!


A special thank you to the following fabulous team:

Happy Anniversary, Vanessa + Mark

Honestly- has it been a year? Really? Truly?? It seems like just yesterday that Vanessa and Mark were married on a gorgeous day filled with all sorts of fantastic memories. So many wonderful things have happened since then, and I am truly blessed to call Vanessa a good friend. It has been incredibly fun having her along as a part of the PWBK team, and I am so SO proud of the journey she has started on her own. I can't wait to see what the future has in store not only for V, but for the two of these love birds as a couple:)

Lauren + Kyle, to-be-wed

Lauren and Kyle's upcoming wedding is going to be super-fabulous for so many reasons. For one, they chose the Richard Nixon Library and Birthplace as the location; a venue that is overflowing with elegance and sophistication. And more importantly, their vendor line-up could not be more incredible. Included in their day is Michael Norwood, who snapped some gorgeous engagement photos of the couple recently. I picked a few favorites to share:
