Christi and Alex's winter celebration at Hotel Bel-Air was everything an intimate wedding should be – beautiful yet wonderfully personal. The property's iconic swans drifting by and the garden's serene atmosphere set the perfect backdrop for the ceremony, and Jenya Flowers created artful arrangements that fit the space perfectly. The Nouveau Romantics elevated every detail with their impeccable design, transforming the already stunning venue into something even more magical.
The intimate guest count meant the day unfolded exactly as it should – with Christi and Alex fully present for every moment and every conversation. It's the kind of wedding that reminds me why I love intimate celebrations so much. Their intimate dinner reception enjoyed by the warmth of the fireplace felt like the most fabulous dinner party, which is exactly what Christi & Alex had dreamt of.

"Ashley's experience is evident in everything she does- her attention to detail, her ability to flex and respond to whatever is happening on the wedding day with ease, and then to deliver images that are both fresh yet timeless is a rare combination. It's a testament to her natural talent combined with skill and years of experience, and I always know that our clients are in impeccable hands.
12/10 recommend"
