The couple kicked off their grand entrance with an amazing performance by the USC marching band. The couple even joined the USC band in a little surprise performance they had prepared for their guests. Additional performances were scheduled throughout the night to keep the guests entertained.

As for decor, each arch within the ballroom was accentuated with cardinal colored lighting. Guests picked up their fortune cookie favors which housed their placecards. At the reception entrance, guests were greeted by a striking five tierd cake.

Fresh Tabletop Design










































Known for our fresh and innovative designs, we were recently selected by Girari from
a “who’s who” list of top event designers to showcase our capabilities at the competition on April 10, 2008.

For our centerpiece design, each of the butterflies was thoughtfully designed and crafted from recycled soda cans. They truly exemplify doing something extraordinary with something ordinary.

The highlight of the table that "WOW'd" all judges and attendees- using lightbulbs, we reconstructed the "filament" with green wire and artfully formed them into words. Each word is related to things we hope everyone will have in his/her life: love, joy, inspiration…..

Champagne Chic

I came across this vibrant, sexy vasque designed to house champagne bottles of Veuve Clicquot at ideal temperatures. I'm loving its shape and I think it would certainly inspire confidence in even the most shy of toasting speech-makers. (Well, that or the champagne should eventually do its job.)

This chic vessel totally reminds me of the exterior curves of Walt Disney Concert Hall, which provides such a great space and backdrop for events. Champagne toast, anyone?

The Art of the Cupcake




















For the past few years, cupcakes have been the craze. At premiere parties, product launches, weddings... The cupcake had taken over the crispy creme and cake, officially.

When all these boutique cupcake shops started springing up, I loved it because each boutique represented another tasty adventure. I couldn't wait to see how each bakery reinvented and perfected their cupcake.

I know there are some of you who will inherently groan upon seeing another cupcake - however, I guarantee after seeing Kylie Lambert's beautiful cupcakes you will fall in love again. I mean, look at the detailing in both the cupcake and the cupcake stand, and the color! It looks too perfect to eat! I'm craving a cupcake right now. It's just too bad she's in Australia.
