{mark + mary | married | newport beach}

Hello all! Hope everyone had an fun Labor Day weekend as we celebrate the end of the summer. Personally I love Fall so I'm definitely ready for cooler weather to be with us all and done with this hot and humid Southern California weather we've been experiencing.

Today I'm posting about our most recent wedding we covered at the Newport Beach Marriott Hotel & Spa. I first met Mary through Allison from Flower Allie in May and I immediately knew that her and I would get a long. Mary had already hired a previous florist/planner to help them with her wedding planning but unfortunately her previous vendor was expecting and wouldn't be able to be there for her wedding day. I'm really glad that Mary & I met since she is an absolute gem to work with. She remained calm & graceful from the first day we did our consultation to the moments before she walked down the aisle. I love the spirit that Mary & Mark embodies with such kindness and true love for one another. They've known each other since they were young and we're actually "set up" by their own siblings & cousins. This is our first Coptic Orthodox ceremony and it was such an amazing experience for us to be a part of. One of the perks that I truly enjoy about this business is meeting people from different cultures so witnessing this ceremony was such a treat for us. 

From the time we spent together planning all the details of their wedding day, you can sense that Mark truly treats Mary as his queen. We wish both of you well and thank you for entrusting us with all of the details of your wedding day.
