Thursday, 26 August 2010 17:23
Many people have an interest in photography, but how many actually have the skills and knowledge to become a professional? On Monday October 25, 2010 the Studio of Dan Pettus Photography will be sharing his expertise as a professional photographer, helping you “Photograph a Winery Wedding”. Dan Pettus’ class, “Photograph a Winery Wedding”, is part of a nationwide educational event by Professional Photographers of America (PPA). Called Super Monday—as the majority are held on Mondays—these classes have. Super Monday features educational classes on diverse topics around the country, hosted by professional photographers. The class will be shooting a mock wedding from bride preparation to the ceremony and reception. Spend the day with Dan Pettus Photography at Wilson Creek Winery and Vineyards, one of So California’s most beautiful locations, learning how to setup up your equipment, compose subjects, and understand indoor/outdoor lighting challenges while photographing weddings. You may bring your cameras and shoot along with Dan or simply enjoy the day learning by observing. Lunch will be on your own. The Creekside Grill is a wonderful bistro onsite at the winery.

The DJ Search

Written by Press Release
Thursday, 26 August 2010 17:20
By Jay Fitzgerald - The DJ Company As I’ve been reviewing wedding trends over the past years, I must say I’m amazed at the number of brides that wait to book their wedding entertainment. I fully understand that the game has changed a bit with the economy and credit crunch but more and more brides are “gambling” with their wedding vendors, especially DJs. The question I ask, do you really want to gamble with your wedding entertainment? Many brides don’t know what to look for when booking their wedding entertainment; so they rely on friends, weddings they attend, and reviews. Some may search online via Weddingwire.com or maybe simply a Google search. These are all great resources but I still think researching and booking in advance is a better “gamble” than waiting until 3 months or even closer to your wedding date. If you want the best plan, research, and book early!

Sky Couture Bridal Show and Expo

Tuesday, 09 March 2010 03:24

wed sky couture steve white dress

Wedding dress designers know that the key to a good collection combines the reinvention of culture, history and the style of ideas with underlying signature qualities. Designer Irene Castro has topped the list of designers in Murrieta, CA after debuting her designs on Saturday, February 20 in Murrieta’s first Couture Bridal Show and Expo.
A rush of brides-to-be overwhelmed the expo during the first couple of hours. The show started with an expo highlighting vendors such as Welk Resort, Unique Weddings & Flowers, TenderShootz Photography, Pala Mesa Resort, Menifee Lakes Country Club, Planet Beach, Off Guard Photography, Maria’s Uribe’s Flowers, Cookie Lee, Pink Table Bakery, Village Java Coffee Shop and Bakery and Murrieta Cooks! Bridal Registry to name a few. Show sponsors include IE Style Magazine, Neighbors Newspaper and Town and City Shopping: Murrieta.
During the show, Tacos Tijuana Gourmet Inc. revealed their new gourmet catering services fit for private parties and occasions. Who knew! Chef Marco served ceviche infused with “pommes frites”, stuffed peppers topped in a special house cheese trimming and Latin style bunuelos, which delighted attendees and encompassed the Latin & French theme for the night.
Reve Salon and Sydni Skylar Salon teamed up to make the show a success as they supplied makeup and hairstyles fit for the occasion. It was a unique blend of creativity, teamwork and productivity.
The atmosphere was set and the show began with a tuxedo category featuring designers from Scotty’s Tuxedos of Murrieta, CA. They are said to be one of the main locations for suite rentals and alterations in the Inland Empire. We even had a special guest model from the Riverside Rainmakers ABA basketball team. Wow!
In time for prom season, the boutique’s prom category was filled with electric blues, charcoal blacks, hot reds, and royal purples, short and long alike. Talk about a vision of surprise! During the grand finale, wedding, bridal dresses and flower girls paraded down the runway with vintage dress, crossed with Latin spice and French poise. The event was a sure success and a chance for the new boutique to make it’s mark in the competitive world of prom, wedding gowns, bridal and flower girl dresses.
The Sky Couture will be hosting private trunk shows during the month of March and April by appointment only. You can find additional information by logging on to www.skycouture.net

The Perfect Wedding Gift

Written by Tresa Erickson
Tuesday, 09 March 2010 03:19
You received an invitation to a coworker's wedding, and now the hunt is on for the perfect gift. You haven't been to a wedding in years, so you could really use a refresher course on shopping for wedding gifts. Tradition says that you have up to a year after a wedding to send a gift. However, who wants to put off purchasing a wedding gift that long. Save yourself some trouble. Start shopping for a wedding gift within
