Kristin and Jeff- Monarch Club, San Louis Obispo

This post is very overdue but I think it's good timing....my lovely sister and brother in law Krsitin and Jeff are expecting their first little bundle this week and so only appropriate to showcase their wedding from early last year! We all were introduced to Jeff at Erik and my wedding in 2007 and we all loved him from the get go! He is 100% fun all the time! His laugh is infectious and he and Kristin are the perfect match! Jeff's family is from Santa Maria so they decided to have their big day there! We rang in 2011 with the "Wedding Olympics", super yummy rehersal dinner and then their big day! It was a blast! I was preggers with Peyton at the time and Capri had just turned two! It was a fabulous family vacay and I was honored to doll up the beautiful bride! Kristin envisioned soft,swept back hair and a little more drama on the eyes. Her hair was on the shorter end so we opted to add in some extensions to give the fullness it needed. I loved the way she looked!

As I mentioned, 100% fun!!! Classic Jeff!

My mother in law created Kristin's amazing gown! Isn't is heavenly?!

When Lucia from Utterly Engaged and the ladies of Intertwined Events approached me about contributing to the newest edition of Utterly Engaged I couldn’t say no. Utterly Engaged is an e-magazine like no other!

Taking the theme of issue 15, Sweet and Spicy, we wanted to take the readers on an experience with the bride and groom throughout their entire day from getting ready, to enjoying the reception to the honeymoon suite. Very ooo la la!!
