Marvimon House- (near) Downtown Los Angeles

I remember when I first heard about The Marvimon House a couple of years ago, I was in complete awe of the space. A well known venue in Los Angeles I was so thrilled when one of my couples decided to celebrate their union there! 

Marvimon used to be an automobile showroom. Now it's a venue to weddings, exhibitors, and events. I'm most attracted to it's Chicago loft style exposed brick walls, cement floors, and succulent vegetation up the walls and around the courtyard.

I dream of bentwood chairs....everyday...

So when you think of Marvimon, know I'll be working with another amazing couple who also hold a sweet place in my heart. Can't hardly wait for this weekend Kathy and Andrea!

Downtown Vintage Flair

Christina and her bridesmaids on their way to the Fine Arts Building (downtown LA)

Walter and Christina, enjoying a beautiful Saturday afternoon at Dominik's Restaurant...

 

I painted these Bells that were once were silver, but now are gold!

I did it! I had my first full wedding! All on my own...well, not exactly on my own...but under my own business! I had a great team working with me (Nara Kwon) and was surrounded by complete joy!

Walter and Christina are the two most adorable couples I know. They're so witty and they balance each other out so well! It was a joy to work with these two. They were always calm and the one thing that they looked forward to the most was just being husband and wife at the end of a busy, but fun day!

The ceremony was held at The Fine Arts Building in Downtown LA and the reception at Dominick's Restaurant in West Hollywood. Christina has a vintage flair to her. She has beautiful porcelain skin and is tall and beautiful. Walter, he is hilarious! Every time he lays his eyes on Christina, his eyes gets ten times bigger! His love for her is so apparent it's so amazing! So you know how excited I was when they hired me to work their wedding. They voiced their concerns, but they were always open to new ideas.

They celebrated with 140 of their closest friends and family members, with wonderful wine, food, a fabulous selection of great music...and bells :) Even after a long day, it was a blessing to see the smile on their face throughout the whole entire day!

Thank you Walter and Christina!

Now it's on to the next one :)
