Planning Erin and Scott’s wedding at the stunning Balboa Bay Resort was truly an honor. From our very first meeting, it was clear that Erin was a dream bride!! With Erin and Scott living in Texas, establishing trust was crucial, and I’m grateful we were on the same page from day one. Her joy and confidence in me made the entire planning process a true pleasure. The love between Erin and Scott was undeniably infectious, and it was evident in every moment of their celebration. Their two adorable little boys, who served as ring bearers, added an extra touch of sweetness to their special day.
The wedding perfectly blended coastal elegance and timeless charm, featuring a stunning color palette of dusty blue and white. Erin captivated everyone with not one, but three breathtaking dress changes throughout the day, leaving everyone in awe.
The decor featured lush all-white florals and candles by Flowers by Cina, creating a romantic ambiance. The entertainment was nothing short of spectacular, with electric violinist SPAGS performing during the ceremony and cocktail hour, setting the stage for an unforgettable evening. LIV Entertainment’s 15-piece band kept the energy high throughout the reception. Fun details like a champagne tower, an espresso martini ice luge, photo booth and a white dove release added to the celebration.
As if the day couldn’t get any more magical, Erin’s 30th birthday was celebrated at midnight with a surprise floral cannon and a heartfelt performance of “Happy Birthday” by the band. A beautiful cake from Sweet Traders was the perfect finishing touch to this joyous occasion, marking a memorable start to Erin’s new decade.
Happy birthday, Erin, and CONGRATULATIONS to the new Mr. & Mrs. Tally! I miss you already and am sad that the planning is over, but you and your family will always hold a special place in my heart.
