Hinna + Iain {ENGAGED!}

I had the pleasure of meeting Hinna over the summer.  This lovely bride and her fiance, Iain, are getting married at the Richard Nixon Library in Yorba Linda next month.  It'll be the first wedding of 2012 for MDCE!!  I'm super excited about this wedding because it'll be my first Indian wedding!  I also team up again with the fabulous Dodie Sy from Brassavalos Floral Couture!  It's going to be a super fab wedding!!

Hinna and Iain chose the Katie Wheeler Library in Irvine, California for their cute engagement shoot!  Special thanks to Gina Marie Photography for allowing me to share their e-session with everyone!  Make sure to check out more of Gina's work!  Enjoy!!

Laura + Manny {ENGAGED!}

Laura and Manny are one of the most beautiful couples I've ever seen...and I really mean that!!  Laura works for US Bank and Manny is a professional baseball player entering his 7th year in pro baseball.  His career includes the San Diego Padres and Philadelphia Phillies.  Laura and Manny will be tying the knot this month at the beautiful St. Denis Catholic Church in Diamond Bar followed by a platinum wedding reception at the Hilton in Pasadena.  MDCE will be reunited once again with Amber Event Production and Brassavolas Floral Couture for their lavish wedding (aka the Platinum Dream Team).  I'm definitely looking forward to their nuptials!!


This e-session was photographed by San Diego wedding photographer, James Moro Photography, in beautiful Temecula, California.  James did an amazing job!  Check out more of James's work via his website!

Happy Holidays!!  I'd love to share a mesmerizing teaser by KLK Photography from Katerina+Paul's modern-chic NYC-inspired platinum "Winter Wonderland" wedding held at the Four Seasons Hotel in Westlake Village on 11-11-2011!!  This romantic image of kissing in the middle of a snowy dusky evening is so magical. And yes that is SNOW you see falling on them!  Doesn't this remind you of that perfect snow-kiss scene from the movie "Serendipity" minus the dusky sky?  Enjoy and stay tuned for more...

Kat + Paul {ENGAGED!} - New York State of Mind Part Two

"I'm looking for love.  Real love.  Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love." --Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw

Hi lovelies!!  I just had to share one of my favorite quotes from SATC!  Last month I posted a teaser from Kat + Paul's e-session in NYC.  Thanks to their fabulous photographer, Kristi & Paul of KLK Photography, I'm happy to share Part Two of their romantic NYC e-session!  KLK Photography followed the couple to places like Central Park, Soho, Meatpacking District, and Times Square.

I can't wait for their platinum wedding in November!!  Enjoy everyone!!

Nadia + Jeff {ENGAGED!}

When Nadia contacted me to coordinate her wedding I was thrilled, of course!  I was even more surprised to find out what her future last name will be!  You see I've known her fiance, Jeff, since the 2nd grade!  We went to the same elementary, junior high, and high school.  Small world, huh?!  I guess you can say I was born to coordinate Jeff's wedding!  LOL!  I haven't seen Jeff since high school so our first consultation meeting served as our little reunion.  I'm very excited to share Part One (yes I said Part One!) of their e-session with you guys!  Part Two, which will be photographed in California, will be posted soon.  For this e-session, Nadia and Jeff decided to do a destination e-session!  They traveled to Bali, Indonesia, which is where Nadia is from!  This session was photographed by Paulus Susanto from one of my favorite international wedding photography firms, Axioo.


From Nadia's own words:  "When we were brainstorming the concept, we came up with "Eat, Play, Love".  The idea came from the book & movie "Eat, Pray, Love", in which part of the movie was filmed in Bali.  It actually made total sense since both Jeff & I love trying new places to eat (especially desserts), playing games on the iPhone and iPad, video games, and board games.  Some of the locations we went to for this session were Divine Wonderland, The Junction Restaurant, and Tegal Wangi Beach."

Enjoy Part One of "Eat, Play, Love"!  I know you'll love the pix as much as I do...especially her beautiful platinum Tiffany engagement ring!!  Good job Jeff!!
