Local Vendor Highlight- Foto Nuova

We always hope that our clients have great photographers to capture their wedding day (noticed I put photographer(s) rather than photographer. Two is always recommended (One main and one assistant photographer at the least). This is the one area that we advice our clients to spend money on. At the end of the day, pictures last FOREVER and if you have a talented photographer who can help you capture it, its money well spent.

Foto Nuova is one of our Pasadena favorite photographers. Each photographer have their own style, and if you go to Foto Nuova's website you will find that he excels in vintage wedding looks. Just the music on his website can tell you a lot about his style. Aaaron Gil at Foto Nuova is a such a professional vendor to work with. Many clients flock his way to help them capture their special day with a flair.

Local Vendor Highlight- My Sweet Cupcake

This week I would like to put the spotlight on one very special Pasadena vendor- My Sweet Cupcake. As an event planner, I have the privilege of tasting many delicious cupcakes, from Pasadena to Beverly Hills, I have pretty much tried every single place. And today I am proud to share one of Fresh Events Company's favorite cupcake places- My Sweet Cupcake. The cupcakes are always prefect and scrumptious, soft and moist.
We are on a cupcake addiction! Take last week for example, we had a few events plus personal celebrations, so four out of the seven days we had cupcakes at the office. So, don't be surprised next time you visit the store and find our company picture there as "Guest of the Month."

The Huntington Library opens grounds for weddings

Known for our beautiful and fabulous weddings, we are happy to announce that we have been named one of the three exclusive planners to work with The Huntington Library who recently opened its doors for weddings.


We couldn’t be more excited about helping these very special couples celebrate their nuptials in this phenomenal space that is only now available for weddings. The Huntington Library has so many botanical gardens, collections, and historically significant settings to experience a truly unique wedding. There is so much room for creativity.

The Huntington has been chosen for decades as a movie location for weddings. Whether one envisions a wedding to be “A Cinderella Story” or prepares to battle out the wedding details with a “Monster In Law” (to name just two of the hundreds of projects that have been filmed on the grounds), the potential of a real wedding produced on its premises outshines anything seen in the movies.

However, renting this exquisite venue comes with an exclusive price: For $100,000, one can have the privilege of saying “I do” surrounded by such beauty. Despite the price tag, interest for weddings at The Huntington is high. Having a wedding at The Huntington is magical. It’s like having an exclusive, destination wedding in its one-of-a-kind gardens and collections, and comes with personalized attention. Brides and grooms understand how incredibly special that is, as will their guests.
