Everything you need for a California wedding

Jack Miller4 said:future, what does the menu pricing look like at Fable for a Saturday booking?

Does anyone happen to know where I can pick up beige-gold or colored envelopes for invitations in St.?

The classic menu is actually the most affordable option—it's $43.😉

Greetings to all
I am seeking information regarding wedding planning on Nantucket... specifically how one might organize an event there.🙏I require details on lodging, catering, photography, and local musical groups.
Ideally, everything would be coordinated through a single provider....
Thank you.

Maybe check somewhere in Charlotte near the MLS team headquarters.

But now for the real questions... who did your makeup and hair? How did you feel about the results?🙏

Thanks, thanks! 😉
I didn't want to mess with my look too much. I went to my usual stylist in California—Zack’s salon, and his stylist is Senia—and then a makeup artist. I think she works at Sephora, or maybe Ulta, somewhere on Stephens Street; her salon is called Dorothy, and she handled the makeup. It feels a bit ridiculous to be bragging about myself like this, but honestly, they were fantastic. They know exactly what they're doing. We had everything coordinated perfectly, I was thrilled, and the compliments from the guests were all the validation I needed. 😁

We paid $45, but I heard that’s considered "peak time." You know, summer, a Saturday... I might be wrong, don't hold me to it, but I think the price fluctuates depending on whether the wedding is in the off-season or right in the middle of it. It's worth double-checking.

As for the envelopes, check out Text Paper over in Stinica. They had every color imaginable when we were looking.

thanks for the info😉
I'm just glad you were happy with everything... at the end of the day, that's what matters most.
Let me know how the photos and the DVD turned out. I actually used Photo Color myself, so I'm curious to hear your thoughts. 🙂

How far in advance should we be looking to book a place like Dolis for a summer wedding? Like, are we talking 400 or 600 days out?
I was also wondering if Phoenix might work, but honestly, I'm not even sure if they have halls that fit the size we need...

thanks!😉

Look, if you already have a date in mind, why wait around? Just go down there and find out if they're even available. And honestly, if you're actually planning on hosting that many people, wouldn't a venue like Bolero right in the city work just as well?

Oh, I totally forgot to mention—those kinds of venues can get snatched up months in advance, sometimes even a full year ahead of time,

Last year, I was looking at either Dolis or Phoenix... and by October, everything was booked solid through the start of November. So yeah, what are you even waiting for?

Can someone DM me the number for those shot glasses? 😍

Thanks!

Ah, that Solis guy. 😍

Thanks so much, Raymond Brooks7 😘
Now I just need the contact info for all the other photographers... please, ladies 😍

EDIT: I found most of them... thanks to your suggestions and the absolute chaos of the group chat 😉
I'm starting to look for venue numbers that can accommodate about 150-170 people now...
So if you have any recommendations—shoot me a DM with the numbers 👋

Hmm... I don't have the contact info on hand, but check online for Studio In, Photo California, or Photo Color...
As for venues, the last two weddings I went to were in a suburb outside of San Diego, at Phoenix and Lesnines, and they were great... both weddings had around 200 guests...

Ladies, I could use some advice... has anyone ever pulled off a wedding like this:
- intimate (maybe 15-20 close family and friends; followed by a massive blowout party for everyone else a few days later)
- fall vibes (mid-October)
- coastal (somewhere along the coast between San Diego and Savannah)

My biggest worry is the weather—I know October was gorgeous last year, but I can't exactly bank on Mother Nature being that kind again. Also, if anyone has restaurant recommendations near the water, I'm all ears...

My partner is from that area and we'll likely be moving there permanently, so I'm pretty much clueless when it comes to local spots for a small wedding... Any help would be appreciated.

🙂

Having an outdoor wedding sounds wonderful, but if I may offer a little advice, I'd always suggest having a backup indoor option ready. You just can't be too sure with the weather; I mean, who would have thought the first day of summer would turn out to be so rainy?

makes it sound like you could totally pull something like that off at Adriana's in San Diego, but definitely double check

It looks like Ino and Mammoth are keeping their distance from each other lately, right? They’ve both got about a month and a half of downtime ahead of them 🤷
But honestly... just thinking about those two together 🙂
I'd love it if someone could post some photos of those two rooms (if they're out there anywhere) along with some thoughts on them... 🙂

It doesn't necessarily mean someone got fired or anything.🤷

But Ino—well, you should probably check around. My guy plays there all the time, and every single time, we get lamb. It's either served cold or just totally bland, even though people act like they're serving up gourmet lamb.

Have you looked into that hall over in Lorain that everyone raves about, or maybe those venues out in Long Beach?
