Hilton Costa Mesa Summer Styled Shoot from Expressionary Events + Julie Irene Photography

You may have noticed we’re a bit obsessed with summer. But can you blame us? When you live in Southern California, and the weather is pretty darn amazing every single day,  it is no surprise why we love the summer months. We are talking breathtaking ocean views, lovely beach sunsets, sun bathing, and beachside picnics. With only one month left in this gorgeous summer season, we wanted to continue to celebrate summer love. So when Expressionary Events, Julie Irene Photography,  Love Me Sweets, and a whole team of fabulous vendors teamed up for a styled shoot based on romantic beach elements, we were just over the moon. Totally in love.  Wedding Wednesday is about to get real romantic in here. Ready to be swept off your feet?

From Carmen of Expressionary Events…
Our inspiration for this shoot came from the gorgeous southern californian beaches. We wanted to create a beach feel for the Hilton, Costa Mesa.  So, for the bride that wants to bring elements of beach that can’t necessary afford the beach venue, the beach elements can be incorporated and brought into the hotel. Seashells were added in the vases of the centerpieces, and the bride’s jewelry has stars and seashells. We wanted to use the word LOVE in a creative way. It is used with the bride’s earrings, on the aisle runner,and even on the plates of the cake. A fun summer leading into fall wedding idea with inspiration colors that could be used for either season.  Lush, romantic flowers, celebrating love.
