It’s hard to follow up a compliment as perfect as that one, but we’re going to try! Meghan was a fun, detail-oriented bride who was referred to us after their original wedding planner was no longer available. Along with the fabulous Julianne and Lisa from A Matter of Taste Catering, we took this bride from being worried about her plans coming together after such a setback to loving her décor so much that she said we were “the best thing that could have happened!”

 
Pedregal weddings are always breathtaking because every property in this exclusive community features the utmost in luxury and amenities. Meghan and her groom Anthony were married on the beach and hosted their reception at the Villa Bellissima, a 24,000 square-foot private villa. Read more about Villa Bellissima, an April 2013 villa of the month at Cabovillas.com.

 
Meghan’s wedding décor was beachy yet sophisticated. She kept her colors earthy, with off-white, lino and burlap tones. The flowers provided a romantic pop of color through soft peach and apricot hues. A few of the custom pieces we designed for this wedding included the table numbers, the cake table and the mason jars. The bride’s mother made the burlap menus by hand to perfectly coordinate with our décor.

 
We suggested a fun twist on Meghan’s table layout for the private villa wedding reception— a combination of round and square tables for guest seating that she simply loved. And the beach ceremony featured shoe stations with a chalkboard instructing guests to kick off their shoes. The chalkboard was a brand new design piece for us and was such a lovely detail that fit perfectly with Meghan’s vision.
We must send a special thank you out to Gaby Cobian from Vivid Occasions for her invaluable assistance with Meghan and Anthony’s ceremony. Gaby, Julianne and Lisa, we couldn’t have done it without you!

Tad and Jonathan wanted a napkin that would beautifully display their designer dinner menus, so we also customized a lime green 100% linen napkin and spent two days ironing and perfecting the fold. When Tad wrote us recently and commented, “Everything was immaculately clean, crisp and pressed,” we were delighted to hear our hard work left such a lasting impression!

 
The photos from Alec and T. are simply breathtaking and truly show off how well this couple’s inspiration and our design talents came together. Tad and Jonathan were so happy with the results, they had the following to say about the personal attention they received from their event designer at Linens, Things and More…: “She was very prompt, thorough, and most importantly, she came up with great ideas for our wedding. I felt like she was personally invested in our day.”

 
Tad and Jonathan, thank you for trusting us with your big day! We are proud to have worked with such a lovely couple and feel honored that we were a part of your celebration of love!

After our consultation with the bride, we felt inspired to bring a truly personal touch to her beachside reception. For her dinner and cocktail tables, we used flat aqua linens with just enough sheen to add a luxurious feel to this relaxed bride’s classic beach décor.

As always, we worked hand in hand with the professionals at Cabo Floral Studio to incorporate the fresh roses as creatively as possible. In this case, we hung aqua crystals from the flower bases and utilized clear vases and votives in order to keep the focus on Alisha’s clean, crisp colors. In keeping with the theme of simple beach elegance, we left the back of the guests’ chairs exposed and used a special aqua tie only on the bride and groom’s chairs.

We loved every detail of this seaside celebration, but we think the most memorable feature was the custom blue Chinese lanterns strung above the reception area. And just when we thought we couldn’t adore them any more, the sun went down and the lanterns gave off a fun, romantic glow—a picture-perfect ending to an unforgettable day for Alisha and Shawn!

We did a fun wedding here at the Melia Cabo Real last year where we designed the bride’s vision of lively Mexican flair via bold yet classy wedding décor. Canadian wedding planner Jennifer Bergman says this particular bride wanted a striking, colorful palette that was still refined for her destination wedding.

Bergman states, “The bride and groom wanted a very bright and bold wedding that was still elegant and tasteful. They wanted a very fun wedding so their guests could relax and enjoy the experience.”

For this lovely outdoor reception, we used the bride’s choice of teal for the table linens. This shantung fabric with a bit of sheen keeps the look modern and trendy. When working with bold hues, it’s important not to go overboard, so the teal was used exclusively on the tables and the bright pink strategically used as an accent.

A unique detail about this décor was the chair ties, which were custom-made in a two-tone shade to add a bit more depth (versus the customary monotone ties). The floral arrangements were also multi-colored, which is an easy way to embrace the “fiesta” vibe if your own color palette is more subdued.

No matter what colors you use in your destination wedding, if you’re getting married here in Cabo, then you and your guests are sure to feel the positive energy and welcoming nature of the Mexican culture. ¡Viva México!

Canadian bride Cara came to our showroom while visiting Cabo for her site inspection. While we know not every bride can visit us on-site prior to her ceremony, we loved meeting Cara and having her see and touch the fabrics herself. We adore that moment when brides realize we do so much more than order pre-made linens and furniture—our design team actually creates pieces based on each bride’s vision.

Cara’s dream included a shade of coral that seemed destined for a wedding in the sand. We kept this strong hue sophisticated by using it sparingly against crisp whites and textured wicker décor. We created the coral table runners just for Cara’s event and added wide coral bands to the candles to make them look extra special.

Like many couples, this bride and groom chose to have an Imperial table where they sat with their wedding party. In order to further distinguish Cara and Jason as the guests of honor, we made an exclusive table runner with a coral print pattern just for the bride and groom’s place settings. The custom print of this runner was a darling detail made from a fabric we had just purchased in Paris.

Although we had the pleasure of meeting this bride beforehand and discussing her ideas in person, we send every bride who decides to use our services a vision of what to expect, complete with photos, pricing options and examples of similar set-ups we have done at their chosen venue. There are truly no limits when you design your event with us, which brings a whole new dimension to the planning process.

Please feel free to contact us any time with your questions and ideas. And thank you Cara and Jason for making coral one of our new favorites for beach weddings!

Ashley and her fiancée Matt are well known among the young people on the Capitol social circuit, so we knew we would have to do our best work to design an impressive event for their much-anticipated Cabo wedding.

Ashley wanted a clean, modern look for her reception, which included 200 of the pair’s closest friends and family. For an event of this size, we knew it was important to be resourceful with the décor texture and lighting in order to keep the tables from looking too flat—a major concern with using only white.

We created contrast by using textured linens, and we worked closely with the florist to make sure the centerpieces stood out as well. The floral team did a fantastic job of creating two tall centerpiece designs for the round tables and a contrasting cascade bouquet for the bride and groom’s table. The lighting team at the Hilton also created the perfect shades of aqua blue and purple to keep the white setup looking fresh after dark.

The couple’s main concern was creating a good flow throughout the reception area so their guests could mingle freely with plenty of room to dance. Since they did not want a traditional sit-down dinner reception, we were able to get creative with the seating arrangement and combined oversized chairs and chaise lounges with cocktail and coffee tables. We also incorporated a few large round tables for those who wanted a more traditional seat.

There were so many unique pieces brought into the design of this reception, but our favorite by far was the one-of-a-kind sofa and sweetheart table we had custom-made for the bride and groom. We loved the table so much that we decided to make the other tables a similar Baroque style. The contrast of the bold curved table legs against the modern mirrors and clear chairs kept the vibe fresh and light, just as Ashley imagined.

This event was special to us on so many levels, but most of all we truly appreciate the trust Ashley and Matt placed in us to design their most important social event to date. We must thank Gaby for giving us so much creative control of this party, and we also send a sincere thank you to all the professionals we worked with to make this one of our best weddings ever!

With many American guests in town for the Thanksgiving holiday, we are busy this week hosting events and dinner parties at several of the private villas. Over the past few months, the trend of planning private designer dinner parties has really taken off in the U.S., and we are pleased to see that trend catching on here in Cabo. It really makes sense for guests who are spending the week here and want to enjoy an extra special evening with unique linens, fine cutlery and distinctive stemware.

We offer several packages in traditional holiday colors to suit your dinner party needs, with prices starting at $265 USD for eight guests. If you want something different and unique for your exclusive party, we can do décor in a variety of colors—in fact, we have a client this Thursday who is hosting her Thanksgiving gathering with furnishings in a deep shade of purple with silver accents.  There are no rules, and with our sense of fashion and design, there are no limits!

Whatever you decide to do for your holiday dinner, we wish you a happy and prosperous Thanksgiving holiday from the entire team here at the Suzanne Morel companies.

“Dear Suzanne and Elsa, I just wanted to thank you again for everything. The last two years we worked together to make this wedding perfect and that is exactly what I received. Everything was done perfectly and I am so happy I got to work with all of you. Thank you for a great experience.” –Monica M.

Like many brides, Monica had a special vision for her wedding day and she really loved the planning process. This stunning beauty wanted a Cabo ceremony that included both the fun of a beach wedding and the elegance of a stylish sit-down reception. We just knew after speaking to Monica on the phone that our event design company, Linens, Things and More, would be the perfect fit to create an unforgettable evening for this bride-to-be!

Our experience working with nearly every resort in Los Cabos allows us to specifically tailor each event to fit the desires and the budget of our couples. Whenever possible, we use as much as we can from the venue and accent their items with our own higher-end pieces. This gives the entire setting the look our brides wish for at a cost they can afford. But no matter what happens on-site, we never sacrifice quality in our planning—even if this means we must make a last-minute change to the overall design. We want our brides to feel confident knowing our sense of design will always come before any limitations their venue might have in terms of furniture and décor.

For Monica and Patrick’s reception, we used the white linens provided by Esperanza Resort and worked closely with Cabo Floral Studio to achieve the look Monica dreamed of for her reception. The tall white centerpieces really stood out against the deep violet table runners, and we made a special purple sweetheart table that further celebrated the bride and groom during their reception.

Monica was so pleased with her reception design, she wrote about us again in another thoughtful compliment:

“My experience with Suzanne and her staff is one I will never forget. The planning process and the day of the wedding was so special to me and I will be forever grateful to all of you for that. Thank you so much for everything.”

It was a pleasure working with you Monica—thank you for trusting us with your most special occasion and thank you for your wonderful words!
