On Friday March 11, 2016 Elle A Events had the pleasure of celebrating the love of not one stunning bride, but two. Jenna and Janelle Eagle-Robles gave their guests an evening to remember as the two got married at Big Daddy’s Antiques in Culver City.
We started the day bright and early at the Los Angeles Flower Market where we gathered a multitude of different rustic florals including our favorite, succulents! Luckily Big Daddy’s Antiques is a very unique space that did not require our team to bring in too much decoration, instead we were definitely able to curate the pieces in house and add our own special touches. This allowed us to bring out the best in an already beautiful yet unique venue.
Of course nothing would have been possible without a team of amazing vendors. Thank you all for helping make this event a huge success!

What started as a rainy day sure ended in sunshine as we helped celebrate and coordinate Sammie Grace's 1st Birthday party at our FAVORITE venue, Behind The Blue Door.
Before any great event comes the prep work. We started with creating a wall covered in pink and white streamers as well as different types of ribbon and some string to add texture. We then added custom frames with pictures of Sammie that were painted with gold glitter.
Also who knew Dinosaurs could be so fancy? Well Shelby Kravitz, Sammie's hip Granny and owner of Behind the Blue Door did because she created some of the most chic dinosaur toys we've ever seen! She covered these little creatures by mixing not one, but three different types of gold glitter. The end result was nothing short of fabulous.
Elle A Events personally started the day bright and early at the LA Flower Market where we incorporated florals in different shades of ivory, white, champagne and of course of pink. We also intermixed succulents, which were placed in unique candle holders and teacups.
Finally, as a classy touch we also hand painted 10 bottles in gold. They were then filled with one large pink peony and a smaller white rose to add a simple yet elegant flare.
This party was definitely one of the most chic Birthday's we've ever been to and it was an honor to help celebrate the cutest peanut ever, Sammie Grace.
On Saturday January 23 2016, friends and family gathered at The Argyle in Hollywood to celebrate the 50th Birthday of our dear friend, Karen Goldberg. Guests came from all over the country to surprise her and it was definitely a celebration worth remembering.
Guests arrived draped in their finest 1920's garments with a live band to set the mood. Decorated with feathers, pearls and sequins, the space would have made anyone feel as if they taken a step right into the set of The Great Gatsby. The ceilings were filled with gold and black balloons while the champagne flowed all evening.
What a special moment it was seeing such a genuinely, surprised reaction from Karen as we pulled back the curtain and everyone yelled "Surprise"! Anyone stepping into the space could feel the enormous amount of love and positive vibes throughout the entire evening. We were so honored to be able to help celebrate Karen and create what her dear wife Liz had imagined for Karen's big day. Again, Happy 50th Birthday Karen. WE LOVE YOU & Liz!

Hi Everyone! We are so excited to announce we will be making our third national television debut on TLC! This time it's for the show 'Married By Mom and Dad' which airs this Sunday at 10:00pm. It was an honor to meet and work with the amazing production crew, led by the fearless producer Jeanelle Eagle and help The Sargents create their special day. The wedding ceremony took place on the Santa Monica State Beach and the reception was held at the Annenberg Beach House.
We were hired to handle all florals and design for the entire event. Not only were we in charge of the bouquets and boutonnieres for the bridal party, but we designed and created all the florals from the cake to the centerpieces. The color palate used for the wedding were pastels ranging from pale pinks to yellows with green splashes. Main florals used to create this look were roses, dahlias, peonies and coffee beans.

There comes a point in every event planner's career where they witness something truly magical. In this case, our moment came when we stepped "Behind The Blue Door". This remarkable venue is nestled in Sherman Oaks and can accommodate up to 120 people comfortably. We are very excited to share this space with you and hope some of you can even witness its beauty by having an event there. The owner, Shelby is an absolute gem and pleasure to work with. We are very excited for our partnership and cannot wait to help show off this stunning space.
Whether you are hosting a holiday party, wedding, bridal shower or even a birthday, this venue will go above and beyond your expectations. See below for the beautiful pics!!! :)
Every year when the seasons change and that cold crisp air hits our faces, we are overcome with joy here at Elle A Events. We love spending more time indoors and what better way to stay busy, then with some fabulous D.I.Y. activities!
Now because we love anything that shines, we will be sharing some of our favorite projects that include ... glitter. Some of these projects are even perfect to keep and save for the Holiday Season!
Glitter Pinecones:
The best part about these is they make a great "transition" decoration. They look good on a coffee table October - January or even as an ornament on a Christmas tree! All you need are pinecones, a sponge brush, glue, newspaper to control your mess and a glitter color of choice. You can even paint them different colors before you add the glitter and use that as a base coat instead of glue!
Now this next step is optional, but if you’re worried about bugs, just put your pinecones in the oven at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes. That will ensure all those little creatures do not get into your home, but be sure to line your baking sheet with foil so none of the sap gets anywhere else!
Glitter Acorns:
Much like the pinecones, all you need is glue, glitter, and newspaper. You can decorate just the tops of the acorns or even the entire thing. They can be made into a wreath, ornaments, or even a beautiful garland. You can also just paint the base a solid color and the tops glitter so they look like lights for Christmas time!
At Elle A Events we are huge believers in striving to not only better ourselves, but better our company as well. From September 14th-17th we had the pleasure of attending the Wedding MBA Conference held at the Las Vegas Convention Center. This was a 3-day event jam packed with amazing speakers and booths (which we had a little too much fun with by the way).
Whether you are a florist, caterer, planner or even the owner of a wedding venue, this convention had business, coordinating/design tips and speakers for everyone. It was such an incredible event and we cannot wait to implement everything we learned. We highly suggest this to anyone looking to gain more knowledge of the wedding and event industries!
Check out some fun photos from the event and a video below to see how we entertained ourselves in between the speakers. Thank you to everyone for having us! See you all next year.
