Brianna and Dan ~ August 2, 2009 at Calamigos Ranch

Dear Jennifer,
Thank you so much for everything! Dan and I were truly amazed by how magical the wedding looked and felt. It is obvious why you, Reverend Barbara, and Lori Vreeke are the WOW girls, as you all work incredibly well together. I can't count how many times we were told that it was the most beautiful wedding ever. I can't believe we were so lucky to have you girls on our team! Thank you so much for making our wedding night absolutely perfect!

Love, Brianna

Well, the day finally came. It sure seemed a long time since we first met Kellie and Brent...and the big day fianlly happened! This couple will always have a special place in our hearts!
LETTER FROM THE BRIDE (written the morning after the wedding):

"Good Morning WOW Ladies,

Thank you, thank you, thank you......Words can not express how thankful I am to have each one of you amazing women in my life......Last night was the "dream" wedding that every girl dreams of.....Everything from the timeline, to the amazing kodak moments, kick ass music / dancing, delicious cake to having my own personal make-up artist follow me around. Everything went smoothly and if there were any conflicts...I didn't hear about it. People kept coming up to my "husband" and I and telling us that this was the best wedding they have ever been to. You girls mean the world to me and I couldn't have picked a better group to be apart of my day. And thanks again for the gift that was placed in Brent's car...that was so sweet and thoughtful :) I think we are still both in awe and it hasn't hit us that we are married even though we woke up next to one another this morning. Crazy huh?? I hope we are can stay in contact because I feel that I have created a personal friendship with each one of you and wish you nothing but the best. Thanks Again!! Love you guys!! Mrs. Kellie Shano......"

Michele, Kathleen and Debbie's Magic captured.

Written by the mother of the Bride:
Debbie Fields of Floral Fields has a wonderful eye for color and design. She knew just how to find out the kind of look my daughter dreamed of for her wedding day. Then she worked her magic. Our guests continue to talk about the beauty of our flowers, and the way our color scheme reflected the joy of the occasion. I should add that Debbie is efficient, responsive, cost-conscious, and truly seems to care about the happiness of her clients.

As the mother of the bride, I didn't meet Kathleen Hagan until the morning of my daughter's wedding. This is of course a tense time, but Kathleen and her assistant Patsy did an excellent job of relaxing the ladies of the wedding party and transforming all of us into beauties. Their cheerful and capable presence was definitely an asset.

It's hard to imagine surviving a wedding without Michele Spring of Mia Bella Weddings. With her on the job, keeping track of scheduling and other details, I was able to relax and enjoy my daughter's special day. Always calm, genial, and knowledgeable, Michele was an absolute gem -- as the
entire wedding party can attest.

WEDDING: Hilary's Wedding at Calamigos Ranch on May, 2009
VENDORS: Michele Spring~Mia Bella Weddings, Debbie Fields~Floral Fields, Kathleen Hagan~Beau Ideal Beauty

We LOVE working as a team!

EVENT:
Wedding at The Sunset Restaurant in Malibu. Here's what the bride and groom had to say:

"We originally found Debbie Fields of Floral Fields through our venue's list of vendors.  When we first sat down with her, we were impressed by her creative designs, as well as her calm, helpful guidance.  Her ideas for the design of the bouquets, chuppah, chandeliers, centerpieces, and the elaborate floral swag for the cake--all so creative, so elegant, so beautiful.  When I first saw everything at the wedding, I was just blown away by how beautiful everything was.  She did such a wonderful job, I'm so happy with the way everything looked.  

Debbie recommended her colleagues at Women of Weddings.  We met with Lori Vreeke of Pastries by Vreeke, and after talking with her, looking at photos of her beautiful cakes and tasting very generously-sized slices of several delicious cake flavors, we knew we wanted her to do our cake.  The cake was so beautiful, and tasted wonderful.  We had many comments from guests along the lines of "I never eat wedding cake, they're usually icky, but this is delicious.  Can I have another piece?"

Michele Spring of Mia Bella Weddings was our day-of coordinator, and also printed the menus, table numbers and place cards. "Day-of" is somewhat misleading, since she contacted all vendors well before the wedding to make sure everything ran smoothly. She has a warm, calming personality, and and kept me from freaking out about our officiant being quite late.  Because he was so late, things had to be juggled around at the last minute, and she kept it all under control.  She even helped me into my dress, and got the big 'ol bow in the back tied just right!  Additionally, Michele created the beautiful flourish design for the table numbers, menus, and place cards.  Everything was gorgeous, and the ink matched our table linen.  We had a lot of comments from guests about how elegant the menus were.

What did I like best about Women of Weddings?  Talent.  Each woman I worked with was just top-notch, best in her field.  And Personality.  You're working with these people during a very emotional time, and each woman was happy to be there, calm, and organized at the wedding.  Exactly what you want at a time like that!  I'm so glad I worked with Debbie, Lori and Michele to make my wedding so beautiful."  Karen & Robert, wed on April 18, 2009
