The Wedding of Lee and Priscilla - 8/21/10

The wedding of Lee and Priscilla was held at the Historic Mission Inn in Riverside, California.

Priscilla chose this venue for the beautiful chapel with it's ornate wall of gold. She opted for minimal decor to allow the beauty of the chapel stand alone. It was glorious with all of the candles along the wall lending to the spiritual ambiance.

Priscilla was absolutely stunning as she entered the chapel in her ivory silk gown with the candlelight all around her.


The sounds of The Enchanted Trio from A Touch of Ivory played in the background.
What an incredible moment!

The reception was held in the Spanish Art Gallery surrounded by historic works of art. The gorgeous chandeliers which hung from the golden draped ceiling allowed for the perfect amount of light. The walls and archways were color washed to mimic candlelight. The room was full of romance!!

I included photos from both ends of the room since they are unique in their views. Stunning from either side, guests were surrounded by beauty!

Ambiance Designs created lovely centerpieces with soft shades of white, ivory and sage. Shawn Adams truly captured the theme of this beautiful wedding in his creations.

Gold Chivari Chairs from Elegant Design added class to the already gorgeous tablescapes! Satin floorlength linens in the perfect shade of champagne from Creative Touch Linens shimmered in the candlelight and highlighted to amazing florals.

The cake designed by Sweet Art Cakes was placed on the first level of the Grand Staircase allowing guests to enjoy the view from any area in the room. It was the perfect centerpiece to the beautiful room!

Priscilla and Lee have spent time in many famous cities all over the country, and labeled each table with a city and story of their time spent there instead of using table numbers. We used beautiful gold frames encrusted with faux pearls and crystals to showcase this fun idea!

Harleene from Cean One Photography was there to capture it all! Her artisitc eye and ability to catch the sweetest candid moments is amazing! I cannot wait to see this album!

I had a great time working with this beautiful couple in their planning! These two are so in love and enjoyed the most romantic day surrounded by their closest family and friends, and HMC Event Solutions was honored to be part of that! Congratulations Priscilla and Lee!
