Last Friday I had the pleasure of attending the launch party of the new online bridal magazine, Izzy Magazine at Villa Montalvo. The attention to details was obvious down to the individual bows and sculpted fabric roses decorating the chair backs.I love looking at non-traditional wedding cakes. This one from Lynn of Icing on the Cake made a great impression at the party and was tasty afterwards.


As you can see in the first photo the decorations were absolutely amazing. At one point early in the evening all power went off and all the lights went down. Though power was quickly restored I took this photo of a centerpiece in candlelight.

These amazing and intricate designed Nouvelle Vogue dresses are a tribute to stylish eras gone by with a modern twist to them. They were a perfect addition to the library. I gave the photo a Polaroid inspired processing action to celebrate and reflect their mood.


The three excellent DJ’s from Spintronix had helped create just the right musical atmosphere for talking and partying.

Since I have so few in action photos of me, and very few in a dress I made sure to ask Amy Frugoli of Twitterpated Weddings to take one of me.

The party was definitely the place to be. Even well behaved canine Ellie came out to help celebrate the launch.

At the end of the night, Izzy’s founder, Melissa Bagley, of Melissa Ann Bagley Photography (shown in the first photo on the left) with her good friend, Allie, gave out some amazing raffle prizes. I had a wonderful time at the party meeting people and reconnecting with some industry friends. I can’t wait to see more issues of Izzy.
