Hannah and Sam’s Modern Chic Spanish Hills Club Wedding

The NEW re-model of the Spanish Hills Club + Hannah & Sam’s modern chic wedding aesthetic will make your jaw drop! This gorgeous design is a blank canvas of white with long wooden floorboards, and a modern spanish twist. Hannah and Sam are the first wedding I’ve done with the Spanish Hills Club since their inside remodel, and HOLY SMOKES! Prepare to be blown away…

Ivan and Irene

On a scale of calm to bride-zilla, Hannah is probably one of the most organized and relaxed brides’ I’ve ever worked with! Considering her groom, Sam, is from the UK and had family traveling internationally, I was incredibly impressed by her composure. They were both two of the kindest people ever & with my team at Jamison Events, we helped create an incredible day for them!

Since the new re-model of Spanish Hills Club is pretty much a blank canvas, we had a lot of freedom for design, but this also meant a lot of space to fill! We used a mix of long & round tables with lots of candles, which turned out super elegant & romantic. Their welcome table turned into a sort of welcome room with white roses, mini candles, a “we’re so glad you’re here” sign, a guest book canvas to sign with a custom outline drawing of the bride and groom, a gifts table with a clear card box & tissues for guests. Check out our instagram reel at the end of this blog to see this decor in action! 

Ivan and Irene

The bride and groom chose a unique Ceremony twist by facing the fireplace inside, which became the altar & backdrop for the wedding ceremony, which was absolutely beautiful with the black chiavari modern chairs, hanging modern chandeliers, and dj in the back left corner.

During cocktail hour and photos, we flipped this same space for the Reception and filled the room with round tables and white linens, also re-using the flowers from the ceremony. The sweetheart table was a stunning half-moon table with lots of candles,white linen draped with elegance, and simple table settings. My favorite part was when we had a few free minutes to show Hannah and Sam their Reception space setup and ready. Hannah joyfully said, “This is exactly my vision, I love it so much.” That meant so much to my Wedding Planner heart. Making my Bride happy, is everything I work for! 

Ivan & Irene

The whole reception was also super fun with some funny speeches, and lots of dancing. With the new floorboards, the sound really bounced off and filled the room, so I would recommend testing the sound level during preparations to make sure you don’t wake up the next morning with limited hearing! 

Overall, the wedding went incredible & the vendors were great. Most of all, Hannah and Sam were like models in front of the camera. I can't wait to see more of their photos!

Julie & Mike's Fairytale Westlake Village Inn Wedding

A couple years ago I met who is now one of my best work friends, Samantha of To Be Loved Events. We now often work in conjunction or assist for each other when the time allows. It offers us both needed help from someone we know well and is experienced and insures every event we manage is smooth, The same was for Julie and Mike’s Wedding in November 2020. I had the honor to take the lead in planning for their amazing day and it was perfect.

While we were still in the midst of the pandemic, the Westlake Village Inn made their wedding easy and flawless. Every vendor worked exceptionally hard and as you can see by their photos, it was beautiful too! With socially distanced seating but still a little dancing during the reception, the day could not have been better!

Meaghan & Scott's Santa Barbara Nuptials

If you know me, you know the Riviera Mansion in Santa Barbara is one of my favorite venues. My Brother was married here, so its special. When Meaghan and Scott reached out about their special day, I was so excited. Their dream was to have a Wedding that felt like an intimate party with 200 of their closest friends, and OH was it just that! The day prior Meaghan and Scott said their vows at the iconic Santa Barbara Courthouse with just their immediate familes and the next day was the PARTY! When I think back to this special day, I just remember how in love these two were/are the way they looked at each other, how gracious they were to each other and how happy they were. It was incredible and so well deserved. Here is a small glimpse into their special day!

Also a quick mention- Scott C. (the Groom) is an incredible artist who creates paintings, illustrations and comics with celebrity clients! Check out his creations here- https://www.scottc.com/

Rosie + Patrick's Spanish Hills Wedding

One of the hardest part of this Wedding for me… choosing which photos to post on this BLOG!! Ok, I’m slightly teasing but Rosie was the most beautiful Bride with Patrick her LAFD Groom and deciding which photos to post was really hard (they were all so great!). Ha! I think the number one comment I get about her… she looks like Megan Markle!! I totally agree. This was one of the best parties with some of my favorite vendors too! Rosie said something during her speech that has remained with me. She said “I have waited 37 years for this, this was so special to me.” and it made me remember how incredible this job is. Genuinely making dreams come true! I love reminiscing every second of this special day.

Rosie and I carefully planned every aspect of this day. From their traditional Catholic aspects to their Ceremony to the Mariachi at Cocktail Hour, their Military Sword Grand Entrance and their beautifully choreographed first dance. Rosie surprised her Groom with a Sonora Dinamita tribute band and the Groom’s crew from the LAFD surprised the Bride with a CORED cake! If you haven’t seen this before… its terrifying for the Vendors, haha! But a tradition for all Firemen getting hitched!

Everything turned out literally perfect. I look over these photos with so much pride and nostalgia. I can truly say Rosie has become a friend and I’m so honored to have been her Wedding Planner!!

Nicole & Ryan say "I Do!"

Nicole and Ryan’s beautiful Sherwood Country Club Wedding was nothing short of a dream. With some of the very best vendors, their day was filled with custom special moments. Not only is Nicole one of the sweetest, but she’s also a very talented cookie decorator! We were able to see her special cookies at each table setting and her soft palette of Blush, Burgundy and Gold, accentuated the Ballroom’s aesthetic well.

Jolie and Will Ring In The New Year

From the first time Jolie and I spoke, we hit it off. I felt an immediate connection and wanted to truly make this an incredible Wedding for her and her fiance Will. Jolie shared that they chose New Years Eve as their Wedding date, because her Mom (and incredible former Wedding Planner herself) had been experiencing some health issues and she wanted to truly ring in the New Year with her closest friends and family. As we navigated through the planning process I learned Jolie was innovative and determined. She would come up with an idea and do everything she could to ensure she had the most cost effective and best option possible. Jolie and Will were engaged at an Alpaca farm in Carpinteria. So, through the planning process Jolie decided she wanted to invite a few Alpaca friends to her Wedding, to surprise her guests. And Oh were they a surprise! Not only were we able to hang out with two adult Alpacas and two babies but they even had outfit changes!! Starting out in their formal Wedding attire and switching to their New Years Eve get-ups! Jolie’s entire Wedding style came together beautifully, she intermixed their love for contemporary art with soft Boho style accents. Which meshed well with the Fess Parker Inn decor. A friend of theirs custom drew their invitations and their table numbers were an homage of some of their favorite contemporary artists. All in all, it was an incredible experience working with Jolie and Will on their dream day. Here are a few highlights-

Modern meets Romantic at North Ranch CC

A few months ago our friends at North Ranch Country Club went into renovation mode. They planned to revamp their main inside space of their club for a fresh, clean look. We were especially excited for this because their space is a hidden gem and new this renovation would accelerate the space to be truly beautiful!

So, when Emma of Emma + Josh Photography reached out to collaborate on a Styled Shoot that would feature their renovation, we jumped on board. At Jamison Events, we don’t do Styled Shoots often, mainly because our availability is minimal, but this was one we were absolutely excited about. As we reached out to some of the areas top vendors, we found that Modern Romantic theme to be exactly the pace for 2019! Clean lined, geo shapes, pops of gold and white floral are the popular choices for this year.

We started out our shoot with the Ceremony spots. North Ranch Country Club has two directions you can chose to face. One features a black iron Gazebo that is beautiful to decorate and the second direction is towards the incredible mountains!

Something I learned the hard way… I really wanted infinity or ghost chairs by Imperial Rentals for the Ceremony space. We learned quick that they are actually really difficult to take photos of since they are…. ghostly. So, Mindy of Primrose and Petals acted quick and made a few extra pieces to accentuate the space and show the amazing chairs.

The Second Ceremony site was so fun to dream up. The DeLuxe Balloon company, Primrose and Petals and myself came up with a Modern Circle Arch featuring all white Balloons and a mix of florals and greenery. I loved how the greenery looked as though they were climbing up the arch!!

The “Lounge” area was my favorite because it featured some modern pieces by everyone involved. When I thought about this Styled Shoot I knew this was one spot I wanted to feature. I’m so proud with how these shots came out!

When we moved into the Ballroom to really feature the new renovation. This was where the design aspect got really fun! I just picture the coolest light meets dark styles in this space. I loved the blue lighting with Dark Grey Linens, it felt so warm yet classy!

Lastly we couldn’t not have some of the extra incredible shots by Emma + Josh Photography as they featured some of the amazing details of this day!
