Manisha and Chris and their completely insane/mesmerizing/unreal wedding in the Maldives is up on @voguemagazine @vogueweddings. Iām honestly speechless over this one and have anxiety even trying to come up with the words to do it justice, so do I have to?š Iām eventually going to have to break the full weekend up into several posts, but for now a preview and sincere thank you to C & M for giving us the opportunity, and to our amazing team who flew across the world to make magic happen. I distinctly remember receiving the inquiry, trying to Google map the middle of the Indian Ocean with Bryan, wondering how we were going to pull this thing off exclusively by air āļø and by sea š„ļø, and well - we did. And we are so damn proud.š #maldiveswedding #alisonbryandestinations

Happy love weekendš- yes, I know we never post anymore, but I had to give love to this magical family for bringing us on board for the al fresco wedding weekend of dreams that spanned several towns throughout Napa Valley and the Bay Area last fall. Spoiler alert, it poured for the actual wedding, but let me tell you, what is always everyoneās biggest fear (weather) was nbd. All we needed was every towel in the hotel and every umbrella on the internet š - and wouldnāt you know it, the skies parted just in time for the quintessential Napa experience we had hoped for.
Big hugs to @oliviaraejameswed for these dreamy photos, and to @loopflowers @lauralinescalligraphy @stradleydavidson @gotlightsf @fsnapavalley @meetz14 @theonicollection @casadeperrin @theweddingdetailor @artistsbysherrielong @annychoibrides @sav.and.cam @theweddingartistsco for going above and beyond - and, of course, our own team who swept actual rain with a š§¹(and recorded me doing the same ā¬
ļø swipe), moving mountains in order to make this one happen. Guys, it practically monsooned right as guests arrived for the ceremony, and not a single guest sat on or placed their elbows on anything wet. Frankly, itās one of those perfect miracle weddings that reminds me how good our team really is. @arierose23 @rebeccalwein @freshcutflowersstudio and the rest of yāall - your grace under pressure was indeed a masterclass and it made us oh so proud.
Thanks again to the G & F families for being the type of angel humans that everyone wants to work extra hard for, and for having us. The smiles on our faces havenāt left us. #napavalley #napawedding #alisonbryandestinations

Speaking of dive team, Iām finally sharing the story behind M&Cās wild wedding ceremony. If you followed along via stories, youāll remember we hit a few snagsābut letās rewind.
When clients hire us, whether they know where they want to get married or not, our process is the sameābecause almost every time, they end up somewhere totally different than they think. With M&C, though, their vision was crystal clear (pretty sure her Pinterest profile pic was the Maldives).š Still, we explored nearby countries just to be sureāknowing full well where weād land.
This was no small feat as not only was the Maldives the dream, but getting married on a sandbank was a big part of that. So of course, while scouting for venues, we had to find the one that could also sort of come with one. Sandbanks, for your own knowledge, are public spaces. And they are all over the place BUT we needed one within 30 minutes of a dock, through calm water, deep enough for a boat to pull up to, and yet with a shallow enough ocean floor to build a jetty for guests. MOST importantly, we needed the one that would āstill be thereā come wedding day. And of course, since it canāt be privatized, weād have to hire someone (a pirate, or at least thatās how I pictured it) to camp on the bank 24 hours a day.
During the site visit, we scouted out various spots. There was only one that checked the boxes. Once we found it, we jumped off a boat and swam to the shore to measure the width of the sand. This was a moment in our careers where I looked back to our first wedding together in Michigan sixteen years prior (I think they let us decorate a swing or somethingš) and realized just how far our dreams had taken us.
All was well until a month before the wedding, when we got a frantic call: the sandbank had vanished. āCould you just maybe have it on the beach?,ā they asked. But no, we came for the dream. So, we found a remote patch of landā¦and we built one. THE END.
Happy anni, guys! Your wedding aged me dramaticallyš
, but weāve never been so proud. Big love to @patinamaldives @ratta_rasheed @ahusansan @arierose23 @gobigmaldives @hart_floral photos @normanandblake #maldiveswedding

Instagram vs Reality: Welcome Party Edition
The goal: an immersive floating dining experience with dim sum in the middle of the Indian Ocean in honor of Chrisā Chinese heritage.
The challenge(s): Weād have to build custom dining platforms for guests.āļø Weād have to hire a dive team to measure the ocean floor to determine proper weight limits.āļø Weād have to figure out how to light it.āļø Weād have to figure out sound.āļø Weād have to figure out the waves.āļø Weād have to figure out the wind.āļø Weād have to design a separate dedicated (covered) floating platform just for the kitchen.āļø Weād have to arrange for special boats to transport guests and servers back and forth to shore.āļø Weād have to exclusively offer wine pairings, in order to decrease our āfootprintā and the number of servers needed on the dining platform at any given time. āļø Lastly, weād need to protect the quality of the dumplings, a core focus of our menu, now requiring a deep fryer.š«
And thatās where the whole plan sunk (pun intended). The dumplings took us down.š„š We moved the entire thing to an existing dock before production began, and nobody was any the wiser. In the end, we were gifted a cotton candy sky for our efforts, a majestic view we wouldnāt have otherwise had. It always works out.
Someone recently asked me if we ever just help people source the perfect venue. (A rare ask, but an interesting one nonetheless.) We could, I said, but you wouldnāt want us to. The real magic is in what you do with it once you get it. Photos @normanandblake
Thanks to our dream team for going above and beyond. @patinamaldives @ratta_rasheed @ahusansan @arierose23 @hart_floral @lightenup_inc @dartcollective @uberevents @poppsbrain @_kywo @andrew.pascale @annychoibrides

Ok ok, I know it has been like a year and we still havenāt shared the majority of this wedding weekend, but also I guess that means itās perfect timing for an anniversary post.š Have you ever imagined what it would be like if the White Lotus took place in the Maldives? Except that itās exclusively made up of guests from Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, and India - with a bunch of Brits thrown in for good measure? Welcome to a year ago this weekend! Needless to say, a wildly magical little melting pot for us Americans to be immersed in (stranded? Jk)š for five days while in the middle of the Indian Ocean. To be honest with you, it was so good, it made it tough to share on IG. (Still is.) Because really, how do you even begin to do it justice? It transcended āevent productionā into a real core memory for us. Well, the answer is: you canāt - but hereās a collection of a few of our favorite @normanandblake images anyway.
Anytime you get to illustrate overwater bungalows with @happymenocalstudio, source traditional Maldivian boats that @_kywo and @andrew.pascale can DJ on the top of as guests snorkeled below (career highlight, we were told), and create custom signs with the name of each guest on their own personal bicycleš²for transport around the property - well, itās alright by us. And frankly, weāre not sure where to go from here! Happy anni, M & C. Endless amounts of gratitude and thanks.šš¼ #maldiveswedding

While I havenāt posted much about it (yet), Iām still constantly referencing this wedding weekend to new clients what feels like daily - even if their events are very much so on land.š
We are so madly in love with it. I think what makes me the most proud of it is that while we definitely brought some US talent in, we really worked hard to maximize and capture what was already there. Whereas resources themselves were sparse (as one can imagine while in the middle of the Indian Ocean - most decor came in from India and Australia, as well as constructed in nearby Male), the soul of this weekend was 100% Maldivian. When we searched for venues, we didnāt fall in love with a property and build an experience around it; rather, we compiled a dream itinerary, considered logistics involving weight limits with planes and boats, looked for authentic and exceptional hospitality, and ultimately found a property that could play host to this dreamy 5 day weekend of events.
So here we have it - night 2ās Surf Shack Sangeet at a remote beach club.š¦ššø

Fun little project for Jo & Mo last year at Pebble Beach. They wanted to get married on the anniversary of their engagement - the only problem, it got dark at 5pm which meant weād lose a lot of the beauty of the destination (the view). So, we studied the local flora and fauna, brought the outside in, and transformed a golf and tennis club (in a matter of hours, btw) from totally geek to totally chicš - and into the speakeasy of their dreams, in honor of where they first met. We donāt often work āinsideā so this was extra fun. At this point in our careers, we can honestly say there is nothing more impressive than in-house heating and cooling.š Swipe for the before, and thanks to @loopflowers (literal goddesses) @lightenup_inc @hensleyeventresources @edgedesigndecor @theark_ @foundrentalco - youāre all just exceptional and we appreciate you so much.š„photos @corbingurkin #alisonbryandestinations #carmelwedding #pebblebeachwedding

True or false: this time last year we were lying to our beloved clients and pretending that a hurricane of sorts didnāt hit their wedding venue a mere days before guest arrival. Yeah, thatās true.š Allās well that ends well, yeah? Nothing flowers canāt fix.šø Also, the sun came out 5 minutes beforehand because they deserved it. Thanks to @marcocaputofilms for the mesmerizing āafterā footage š - and thanks to @putnamflowers for being trusted floral buddies for 9 seasons and counting. Pretty sure these guys swam to make that aisle happen. Itās the 1st anniversary weekend for @joeyking @stevenpiet. Letās celebrate! More to come.š photo @normanandblake #mallorcawedding #alisonbryandestinations
