SARAH & KYLE ~ A PERFECT MATCH.COM PART 2

DECOR DETAILS AND THE CELEBRATION!

  Part 2 of the Sarah & Kyle’s beautiful purple, ivory and gold wedding at the Prado at Balboa Park in San Diego showcases the details of the decor in the reception and the rest of the couple’s beautiful and fun wedding day!

It was such a wonderful experience pairing up with Bethany at Splendid Sentiments on the floral design & decor or this wedding. Bethany and her team went above and beyond in creating the beautiful floral pieces for each wedding location at the Prado... I especially loved the escort card table with it’s vignette of florals at the base of glass cylinders and the large gold Mazanita dripping with crystals & candles.   The darling paper elements created by Whimsique Designer Invitation and Stationery really helped pull the theme and look together. While Cole Joseph Photography & Luke McCain Videography were great to work with,  professional and really captured the magic of the day.  I was so honored to work with such an awesome couple and professional team of vendors! read more

SARAH & KYLE WEDDING AT THE PRADO

A PERFECT MATCH.COM PART 1

Their beautiful San Diego Wedding was at the historical Prado at Balboa Park. Balboa Park is perfect place for a San Diego Wedding and it makes for the perfect backdrop for amazing photos with it’s beautiful museum buildings, wishing well and ponds, long stunning hallways and arch ways, the “Blue” & “Wood”door, Koi pond, gardens and so much more.

This location was extra special to Sarah & Kyle, as this was where they had their first date.  Having first met through Match.com, their love blossomed and eventually Kyle took Sarah on the Ellen Degeneres show (Sarah’s favorite show) and to her surprise proposed on national TV. Then to both their surprise, Match.com donated $50,000 to their dream wedding. I can’t think of a couple more deserving of this wonderful blessing!  Their smaller wedding turned into a larger scale, beautiful destination wedding in San Diego – and of course, what better place than where it all began, The Prado at Balboa Park. From there they were asked to be guest judges on Cupcake Wars and the winning pastry provided them with cupcakes for their fun beachside Rehearsal dinner at Breakers Beach Deck in Pt. Loma, which was filmed for one of their episodes. For photos and details on the Cupcake Wars Rehearsal dinner, click here: Rehearsal Dinner Breaker’s Beach Pt. Loma read more

Kory Christenson & Sarah Albert’s
MaGee Park in Carlsbad, CA.

I can’t think of a better wedding to kick off Social Butterfly, A Monarch Weddings Blog then the 1st wedding managed under the Monarch Weddings business name, which happens to hold an extra special place in my heart because it is also my little brother’s wedding.

MaGee park was the perfect backdrop to their San Diego beachy wedding, as it was their neighborhood park and a place they would visit daily when they would take their dog Tiki for a walk.  They spent many of afternoons and picnicking under the beautiful trees and would wonder around the parks neat barn like buildings and rose gardens. read more
