Real Wedding Shenanigans: EJ & Joe

EJ & Joe had a one-of-a-kind celebration at the Ebell Los Angeles' elegant event space. Emphasizing romantic touches green antique wooden chairs were laid out in a row for guests as they watched EJ process down the aisle. Cocktail hour with specialty drinks and appetizers filled the spaces before guests were welcomed into the reception area for dinner and dancing. All through the night, the bride and groom had a station set up for their loved ones to take photos and write down notes and best wishes.
Congratulations to EJ and Joe and a lifetime of happiness! So Smitten provided full service planning, design and day-of coordination.

Real Wedding Shenanigans: Angela & Jonathan

Angela and Jonathan chose to get married outside at the Bel-Air Bay Club. With outstanding views, the couple worked with WenFlorals, to create a gorgeous arrangement where the two stood and exchanged vows. Following the ceremony, guests enjoyed a mix of hors d'oeuvres and specialty drinks before heading into the reception. Laughter and tears filled the room, as the bride and grooms loved ones exchanged some great stories from the past. After the speeches and some dancing, it was time for another quick bite.
