This is a movie I want to see this month, my friend recommended it for summer movie, with light romance where the couple call each other by last names till the end of summer, where there isn't texts and phones in the picture, and when summer meant a simpler time!

COUTURE INVITATIONS- gorgeous!
Yesterday, I was at COUTURE INVITATIONS on Berkeley, and I looked at some of the invitations they were creating on their old fashioned letterpress printers. They really do look different! Plus, they were so nice! I had seen this place before as my dog's store is around the corner, Holistic Hound. I want to do my business cards there. I'll write about the results.

Weddings at Millenium Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles
I had the opportunity to see a wedding reception at Millennium Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles. This wedding reception venue has two to four weddings a day on weekends, and also does weekday weddings. There was something magical about seeing the bride and groom in the historical, grand lobby! The Biltmore opened in 1923 to national acclaim as the largest hotel west of Chicago and by 1969 was designated a Historic Cultural Landmark by the city of Los Angeles.
This hotel was built to create awe and wonder for those viewing it, and when you walk in the lobby you definitely get that feeling. The idea for the hotel arose out of a desire to create a grand icon to show the rest of the country that Los Angeles had "arrived." By 1920, filmmaking was Los Angeles' biggest industry and the perfect climate its biggest attraction. Since the city had no landmark hotel, hotelier John McEntee Bowman financed the building of "The Biltmore," like the other hotels in the country he had developed. Today, the "Biltmore" hotels are unrelated except in name.
A Beaux-Arts composition with Spanish-Italian Renaissance detail was meant as a throwback to the Castilian heritage of the city. The angel theme throughout is a symbol of the city as well as the hotel itself. Throughout the years the hotel has undergone several restorations, such as a 30 million renovation in the mid 70's and a $135 million project between 1984 and 1987, when the main lobby was relocated from its original location to the Rendezvous Court (to accompany the new valet entrance.) There were two floors converted to offices, murals were touched up, walls were repainted and the marble fountain was added to the Rendezvous Court.
This is a gorgeous, historic venue for a wedding reception, or for a visit. I would recommend working closely with management on prices and responsibility.
