Well when they invite Michael Luna of lunaphoto along for the ride – you get a minimal, but so chic it makes me want to cry, engagement sesh in California.

Brides + Grooms to be – Don’t forget about our LBB! This week’s Don’t Miss List spotlights our Little Black Book VIPs who take the stress out of planning your big day. In between saying “Yes!” and exchanging “I do’s,” plan to perfect your soiree with the professionals WE couldn’t live without.
Why don’t you jumpstart the planning process by picking our your venue – thus setting the tone of the whole day. The Langham Huntington, Becker Vineyards, and Cork Factory Hotel are all phenom choices.
To get you Big Day ready, we’ve got some of the best pro’s in our LBB. People like Fabulous Frocks of Charleston, Lovely Bridal Shop, and Mira Bridal Couture can get you ready for your close up. And speaking of your close up, we love our LBBers behind the camera. You’ll find names like Geneve Hoffman Photography, Greg Lappin Photography, Gulnara Studio, Hawes Photography and Design, and Images by Berit on our team!
Of course, we enlist some of the best in the business to help plan YOUR big day. Firefly Occasions, Caplan Whelan Events, and Kate Whelan Events can all plan a gorgeous soiree, and our floral designers? TOPS. To name a few, Branching Out Floral and Event Design, Michael Daigian Design, Beehive Events, and Blüm, Design in Flowers – among SO many others!
And of course, when it comes to the food, our LBB is full of talented foodies. Talent like Main Street Fine Catering, Nine Cakes, and Weddings by JDK will feed your guests lavishly!
And last, but definitely not least (it’s the vendor we always advise not leaving out!) our Little Black Book houses some of the most talented cinematographers in the business. So many companies, like McKenzie Miller Films, I Do Films, Godfather Films, and Lucky Productions Cinematography can all rock the camera hard!
