What Reality TV show is complete without a wedding? I couldn't finish off this series of blog posts for the motel without including the story of mine and Phillips wedding day. The first (of many) weddings that will happen at the Trixie Motel and truly the best day of this whole wild experience that I am so thankful we were chosen to be part of. I first need to thank all the wonderful people who helped make this day so special, including florals by Wild Muse floral, and photography by Tim Melideo. This amazing team of people, along with the cast and crew that turned into family, made our day so magical and one we will never forget. Wedding Story Phillip and I have been together for over 8 years now, so it was about time we made it official. We survived a pandemic together, a TV renovation show, raise two doggie babies, and work together full time on both Dazey LA and Dazey Den. We had planned on getting hitched last year, but then I landed my job on Trixie Motel. Little did we know this amazing opportunity would turn into a wedding too! If you watch our show Trixie Motel on Discovery+, you heard that we were supposed to get engaged at the same motel, previously the Coral Sands. This is ABSOLUTELY TRUE. As aforementioned, we have been together awhile, and I just knew Phillip was going to propose on my 30th bday. I wanted a funky and cute spot with a pretty backdrop to get those good engagement photos ;) Found the motel on Airbnb and tried to book, but to my dismay the previous owner Ruby Montana said she had sold the motel after 20 years of ownership. Little did we know something better was on the horizon. So we booked somewhere else for my birthday, got engaged, and more or less forgot about the Pink Palm Springs motel. A few months later I was contacted by a talent scout, tried out for the show, and landed the gig. When they sent me the show details I nearly fell out of my chair when I saw what motel it was! Little did I know it would end up being the place we got married. And never could have guessed I would have a TV wedding. Pretty damn magical! Our wedding was in the middle of the pandemic, a TV show set, and planned pretty last minute. So we kept it tight with the cast, crew, and celebrity guests Gigi Gorgeous and Jonathan Bennett. Nevertheless it was a beautiful and special day that means so much to us. Plus having our dear friend and drag superstar Trixie Mattel officiate the wedding was pretty damn amazing. And as a surprise at the end of the wedding Trixie wrote and preformed a really beautiful song for Phillip and I that made me cry. Talk about a day to remember! It was really important to have the wedding represent me as a designer. Nontraditional, colorful, unique, quirky, and elevated. Lucky for me I had already designed the entire venue LOL. I mean, it doesn't get better than being able to get married at a space you helped design that's exactly your vibe. I went with a sort of

Kinetic Pause April 2009 An explosion of wooden materials that feature lights, plastics, and painted wooden scraps. A Season For Chains A light/chain wall installation that was 15 feet tall and 20 feet wide.

I used over 2000 feet of chain and knotted fabrics to create this look. Washington, D.C A Spring Fling A lovely day of hand painting/dying fabrics for the Spring 2009 backdrop.

CONFETTISYSTEM is Nicholas Andersen and Julie Ho, a duo working as artists, stylists, and designers. Their friendship, love of communal celebration, and craft making has brought them together to create a new system. The system is a collection of objects born from simple materials. Tissue paper, cardboard, and silk are transformed into interactive objects that create a point of focus where memories can be made and a spontaneous collaboration between themselves and the viewer is sparked. CONFETTISYSTEM occupies the space that exists between the ephemeral and the permanent and aims to evoke a sense of nostalgia and lighthearted fun. WOODEN ESCAPE 2009 A crawling wooden sculpture that moves from wall to wall. Over 45' long and twisting over 16' high. This creature is made from sliced shipping crates and held together with nails from a nail gun. The natural woods provide a strong contrast to the Hermes orange. WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE September 2009 - October 2009 I created a window set for the premiere of Where the Wild Things Are that was on display from September to the end of October 2009. The set up recreated an enchanted scene where Max is being led into the store by one of the wild things. Materials : Canvas, glue, tape, paper, acrylic paints Here I am sewing away the canvas based body.
