Had so much fun chatting with @sonja_irondiamond and @summithillstudios on the @weddingdaypodcast about unconventional wedding planning and crafting immersive wedding experiences. And I took a trip down memory lane as we discussed some of my most memorable wedding designs, like this “Heaven and Hell” inspired wedding.

If given the option to select a side, which would you choose? 🪽😈

Check out the podcast - the link is in my stories!

Paradise Found 🌴

This Hawaiian-inspired 70th surprise birthday party gave total island vibes! Attendees started at a cocktail hour featuring hula dancers, ukulele players and a thatched bar serving up Mai Tais in tiki cups along with a conch blower signaling a reveal of dinner behind custom bamboo doors. A transformed tennis court popped with tropical tablescapes and mixed textiles, an authentic tiki band and a Hawaiian inspired menu. Later, Haka dancers led guests to a surprise after party showcasing a second band and DJ playing from our 1960’s tiki bar inspired lounge.

This one truly captured the spirit of Aloha. 🌺

Inspired by the California hillside, lunch for the EPIC conference showcased a balanced menu of vibrant greens, proteins and garden picks. Set under pergolas, long wooden tablescapes featured wild grass centerpieces, white crisp linen runners, ceramic green charges and copper flatware setting the stage for a farm side family style feast.

Color of Time 🌈

Architect Emmanuelle Moureaux’s latest art experience, “COLOR OF TIME,” allows observers to experience the passage of time through color. Moureaux chose paper; layering over 100,000 number cutouts into a 3D grid. From sunrise at 6:30 to 19:49, the numbers turn over 100 shades of color, ending in black. A color changing experience totaling 799 minutes.

The Shadowless Church

The church, named Sino-french Science Park Church, has been designed by Shanghai Dachuan Architects to redefine the form of a traditional church with light materials and new construction techniques. The church, covering only 65-square-metre area, is built on a lavender field, in the light of impressionism, and illuminates the history of art from here. The church is made of thousands of white thin beams to give its pure form and to get its own light and shadow. There is no need to add en extra element to the church. It’s simple, white and looks like only light.
