Not your average hotel wedding

This gorgeously modern and chic wedding happened last November at the Garland Hotel in North Hollywood. I hadn’t heard of this venue until I booked with Bonnie + Thomas. The Garland hotel boasts a unique and eclectic vibe that doesn’t feel like your standard hotel, which makes for a great wedding venue! I met with Bonnie + Thomas a little later in the planning process but our first meeting was nothing short of fun. After a walk through at the hotel, we planned out some more fun, ideas and décor but what was really hilarious was brainstorming a hashtag for the wedding. With last names ip + low, we thought #dipiplow was clever! Get it #dipitlow? We laughed, finalized plans and enjoyed breakfast together. Those are some of the best planning meetings with clients; where you get to know each other! I always love getting closer to my clients, because in the end we both want to walk away happy, and sometimes I’m lucky enough to gain new friends out of the process!

Now do yourself a favor, and check out this beautiful modern and chic wedding shot by Noteworthy Weddings! Oh, and Bonne’s dresses (yes, plural) are to die for! Inspired by Chinese tradition, Bonnie changed into a stunning red gown after dinner. They went around and had a drink at every table…and there were 200 guests! Serious couple goals and a great way to cheers with your friends and family to a new life together!

Congrats Bonnie + Thomas!
