Marni Farmer October 12, 2019

From the beginning, Christina and Kyle knew exactly what they wanted for their wedding day, and they knew it was going to be something very unique that matched their style perfectly. The couple said “I Do” at the spectacular Paramour Estate, a Historical Landmark in LA with stunning views of Downtown. Their art deco theme was tied together with pops of velvet and fall colored hues, and we were ecstatic to get to be apart of such a magical day. So Smitten provided full service planning, design and day-of coordination

Marni Farmer January 20, 2018

Between gold chairs, a rug lined the aisle way in an outdoor ceremony for Kara and Mark's wedding day at Big Daddy's Antiques in Los Angeles California. From the ceremony to the reception, this setting was furnished with antique decor. A Macrame backdrop behind two navy, wingback chairs, were just the beginning to this couple's stunning sweetheart table. Their reception included rectangle tables decorated with mix-n-match chairs, rose gold mercury votive candles and breathtaking florals. Focusing on all details, the couple maintained a combination of colors including yellows, peach and navy. All of these colors and designs played a beautiful role in decorating this gorgeous venue!
