Here It Is! The Weekly Roundup of Event Photos and Inspiration – Weeks 8 & 9
Alrighty, a little late with the recap posts, AGAIN. I am so trying to just “show up” and post on the blog and it’s not always easy. We seem to have nailed getting everything up on Instagram fairly regularly, but I guess when it’s yours truly responsible for the final final touches on this one, it goes south. Shout out to Camille for staying so on top of this and shame on me for lagging behind!
If you already know what we’re doing, skip this paragraph and head straight to the photos:
In case you missed it, here’s what we’re doing: “Every afternoon we’re posting event photos & inspiration to my Instagram page to give you ideas for your own events, and of course, encourage you to hire yours truly, fabulous event planner in California for your next soiree! In terms of format, we’re trying to capitalize on the whole hashtag calendar world and take advantage of #WeddingWednesday (#WW) and #ThrowbackThursday (#TT) by posting wedding photos and cool stuff we’ve done on Wednesdays and on Thursdays, harkening back to a past client’s event, be it a celebrity, or just one of us tastemakers. So…here is the first weekly round up of my favorite Instagram images that we posted. (For more event images, click here.) Enjoy and tell me which one is your favorite in the comments below?”
Favorite Event Photos and Inspiration – Monday:
The Week of May 4, 2015
Ironically, this party was for Kelly Rutherford and her son, Hermes, Mattel and Rocky the Robot at the Alice and Olivia Showroom in New York. And while we were posting all of this stuff, we did ANOTHER event for Kelly and her project, The Children’s Justice Campaign.
The Rocky the Robot themed party for Hermes was all construction. Think tons of road signs, Rocky of course, cardboard bricks and bright orange cones.
Favorite Event Photos and Inspiration – Tuesday:
Cylindrical jars were filled with ropes, chains and every bolt a boy could love. Peaches filled Rocky up to soften things just a little. SUPER obsessed with the graffiti credenza below at the Alice + Olivia showroom.
Favorite Event Photos and Inspiration – Wednesday:
Happy #WeddingWednesday (#WW): OK, so we’re cheating because these aren’t really wedding photos, but we wanted to stick with the theme of consistently posting about Kelly, Rocky and Hermes’ party, so there ya go. :). It trumped our #WeddingWednesday commitment.
Favorite Event Photos and Inspiration -Thursday:
#ThrowbackThursday (#TBT) to one of my favorite celeb photos. Since I was working the gig, we all wore the bright orange vests – I guess like I was picking up trash by the side of the freeway, but… Kelly, on the other hand, has not aged one single bit since her days on Gossip Girl, and I have no idea how, considering the stress she’s under. Ugh.
Favorite Event Photos and Inspiration – Friday:
Construction themed sandwiches with super healthy multi grain bread, natch. (More good ideas on my Food and Beverage Pinterest board, BTW.) Build your own cupcakes with scoops, candy and plastic organizers that would do VERY well in Rocky’s repair department.

The Week of May 11, 2015
Favorite Event Photos and Inspiration – Monday:
This week featured Ali Landry’s daughter’s birthday party at one of the waterfront beach houses in Malibu. We all got GREAT coverage for this one. (Thanks Christine Chang for the amazing shots!) Pirate’s Booty provided AMAZING booty, what can I say. Thanks to that event, I’m STILL a loyal customer! For real. And I pay retail! 🙂
Favorite Event Photos and Inspiration – Tuesday:
Few color combinations make me happier than that bubble gum pink and wheat grass green. I can never get enough, evidently very much channeling Lilly Pulitzer. Maybe I should do a party for them and just bathe in the whole color sitch!
Favorite Event Photos and Inspiration – Wednesday:
Happy #WeddingWednesday (#WW): The table girl dressed as the table? The table was part of her dress? How exactly do I describe this? It would be perfect for a wedding or bridal shower, but by FAR the most often asked question is: “How does she go to the ladies room?”
Favorite Event Photos and Inspiration -Thursday:
#ThrowbackThursday (#TBT) and my photo with Ali Landry. Sweetest, kindest girl ever! Oh, and, drop dead gorgeous, for real, in person!
Favorite Event Photos and Inspiration – Friday:
Fresh squeezed juices, perfect for anyone wanting to healthy it up after all of that PINK CANDY! #LOVE.
