I am a big fan of ISES (International Society of Event Specialists) and ABC (Associations of Bridal Consultants)Events.  I attend their Special Events about  once a month and have Showcased my company, doing the Make-up for Bridal Fashion Shows for the Vendors involved as well.  I have met SO many genuine, wonderful, talented Vendors at these events, many of whom I work with on Weddings and Special Events often.  I had the pleasure of meeting Summer, who is with the fine dining catering company Patina Group, about 1 1/2 years ago.  We connected right away and have continued to stay in touch as well as see each other at different events over the years. When we  ran into one another at a wine tasting event in the Summer of 2009 at the Fairmont Hotel in Santa Monica and I met her, at the time wonderful boyfriend, now fiance. Summer said that she thought that she’d to be engaged soon and knew that when that day comes, she would love for me to do her Make-up for her wedding.  Well,  that day finally came! She is getting married in Sonoma, in Northern California at a winery in July 2010 and  I can’t wait!!  Below you will see some of the adorable and loving images from their Engagement Shoot, courtesy of the dynamite Laura Grier of Beautiful Day Photography.  The shoot was done at one of my favorites, The STUNNING London Hotel in West Hollywood, California as well as different areas on the beach in Venice and Santa Monica, California.
