Frosted and The Pie Hole

When it comes to an event nothing is better than having vendors that are unique, cute, and fit well with the theme.  I love it when you’re having a 50′s summer picnic themed wedding and there’s a popsicle cart. An engagement party  with an rustic urban feel, with a pie dessert buffet. Or a vintage baby shower with classic cupcakes for a treat. If you can’t picture it yet you’ll get it when you check these two places out…

We have stumbled across these gems from, literally stumbling across them, or having friends give mouth watering suggestions for them. We love their style and most of all love how finger-licking scrumptious they are!

The Pie Hole 

Located in Los Angeles this little shop is adorable! From their tables to their butcher paper menu I fell in love with them the second I walked in their shop! And best of all beyond the cute decor their pies are AMAZING!

Frosted Cupcakery

I visited this cupcakery on 2nd street in Long Beach. They have a cute little vintage/retro feel to their shop! I loved their menu, their flavor of their month, and they have ice cream cup cakes for those hot days, and little pup cakes for your four legged companions! I fell in love with everything they have to offer, plus their cupcakes are the perfect combination of cakey and moist!

We hope that you take the time to visit these two amazing spots and maybe we can use them at your upcoming event!

Elegant Picnic Styled Shoot


This past week we finally did our “Elegant Picnic” styled shoot! It was beyond amazing to see all of our planning come to life! We started designing this mock up in August and finally had the time to put it all together. We are way too excited to wait to post about this shoot so we put together a little sneak peek and behind the scenes look at the Elegant Picinic styled shoot! We’re so happy we could pull it all together with the help of, Simply Happy Photography, Little Hill Floral Designs,  Circa Vintage Rentals, Home a Cottage Food Bakery, The Gunion Run Shop, Ruche, Twigs Print Studio, Behold Designz, our models Rachael & Jeffrey,  Hair by Sabrina, and Make up by Valerie St. George! It was such a blast working with such an amazing team and we can’t wait to be able to share it with the world. Keep and eye out, and we’ll let you know when and where you can expect to see more. Enjoy the behind the scenes sneak peek!

Color Inspiration

We’re not just event coordinators, we’re also event designers, and this is becoming more and more evident to us everyday! We’re starting to find inspiration in the most random places! Like in the children’s shoe section at Target! Yup you read it right…walked by these cute little shoes and fell in love with the color palate! Would love to use this white, kelly green, and navy palate for one of our events! color palate inspiration

 

Keep your eyes open, inspiration is everywhere!

The Kent’s Backyard Wedding

J&M rings & invitationMichelle and Jerad decided to celebrate their love at their home in Cypress, California. At first I was a little nervous about all of the logistics that involve a wedding with adding a backyard into the equation. By the time the wedding day rolled around there wasn’t a worry in the world! This wedding was perfect, the backyard transformed into the cutest quaint reception area with a mason jar country theme! It was homey, rustic, creative, and most importantly filled with the love that the bride and groom have for each other! I truly loved this wedding and can’t be more happy for Michelle and Jerad!

Premier Bridal Show

Last Sunday we had the pleasure of roaming the Premier Bridal Show at the Long Beach Convention Center! There were many notable vendors that we were able to see what they had to offer, their style, and what their craft is. Among those vendors  are five photographers that stood out to us the most.

Erhart’s by the Sea

This past week the Something Event’s crew was wine and dined by Erhart’s by the Sea during an event planner preview night! We all enjoyed the delicious food provided by their catering and the character of the site.

Erhart’s by the Sea is located in San Pedro, on the Fort MacArthur base. The venue site is perfect for any bride that is looking for a vintage wedding and an ocean view! Plus you have built in security against wedding crashers! All guest have to show ID at the gate!

This site is special and needed to be shared! I hope that one day we can coordinate an event that will take place at Erharts!
