Apollo’s Best of 2022

From venues to cakes, here’s Apollo’s Best of 2022! To kick off 2023, we wanted to highlight some of our favorite moments from 2022. Last year, we were blown away by so many of our couple’s events! We worked with some amazing couples, and equally wonderful vendors.

Best of 2022: Venue

Fairview Laguna Seca

Our Best of 2022 Venue, without question, is Fairview Laguna Seca in Monterey CA. With it’s gorgeous seaside location, and a view that cannot be compared, this venue has it all. Once inside, the indoor event space is no less inspiring, with huge picture windows, and a beautiful light installation.

Best of 2022: Planners

Our Best of 2022 choices for planners were easy: Diana at Simply Elegant by Diana, who was responsible for the spectacular Hunger Games themed wedding of Dakarai & Kyle, among many others; and Shiela Burns from Event Solutions. One of Shiela’s standout events of the year was Neha & Avi’s absolutely gorgeous event at McCauley Estate Vineyards.

Best of 2022: Florals

Apollo’s Best of 2022 choice for Florals was a tie. Deepa & Guari’s unparalleled event by Flowers by Edgar, was absolutely breathtaking. These stunning arrangements, from the ceremony to the reception, will have you awestruck. Our second choice is Madeleine & Eric’s event, with florals by A bit of Earth Flowers. With a soft, romantic color palette, and classic feel, this event was picture perfect.

Best of 2022: Dresses

Our Best of 2022 picks for dresses was a tough one! We were able to narrow it down to three. Krystine’s timeless, elegant style was one of our absolute favorite wedding looks of the year. For the reception, she chose true old Hollywood glam to show off her fun, flirty side. Other obvious choices for us were Neha, and Kayla.

Best Dressed Couple of 2022

Apollo’s Best of 2022: Best Dressed Couple nod goes to Deira & Hugo. These two came out dressed to the nines, Hugo’s velvet suit was so stylish, and we were dying over everything about Deira’s look. She looked so glamorous and was absolutely glowing. They look like a perfect fairy tale couple!
