Real Wedding: Sarah + Charlie

Yay! I can finally share the photos from Sarah and Charlie's wedding!  They were featured on Ruffled yesterday so go check it out!  Feather Love took the super rad photos from the ceremony and flutter glass captured all the details and dancing at the reception! 

 We placed mason jars filled with flowers on some of the aisle chairs.  On the others we made paper cones from old pages of books and filled them with dried rose petals for tossing.

 The Marston House is such a tranquil and lovely setting for a ceremony.

 We moved to Old Venice Restaurant in Point Loma for the reception.  This a hidden gem for intimate wedding receptions in San Diego.  They are so accommodating and sweet and the food is to-die-for!

Sarah's mom shipped over vintage milk bottles from neighboring farms in her home town and we filled those with seasonal flowers. 

 Sarah and Charlie love to read so we incorporated vintage books from their collection into the table decor.

We covered a corkboard with pages from old books for the escort display.  Jaime from Cactus + Quail designed all the paper goods as well as the stamps that we used on the escort envelopes and place cards.

 Totally yummy desserts from Cafe Zucchero in Little Italy!

Feather Love Photos of my Parent's House

We were so happy that Noa of Feather Love and her hubby, Stuart, were able to get away and come to our wedding. We have grown quite fond of these two since she shot our engagement photos last year. I told her no way was she allowed to "work" during the wedding and judging from some of the photos of her on the dance floor she heeded my demand! She did take out the camera the next morning during brunch and captured some gorgeous shots of my parents' house. See more of the house and the rest of their trip here.

Our sexy photogs.

My sister and I...I swear we did not plan this.
My favorite baby, Chloe!

The best thing about having brunch at the wedding venue? Recycled decor.

California Wedding of Badassness by Feather Love

I ADORE this wedding. Jenny and Luc were just made to be shot by Noa (of Feather Love, duh). And this is a hardcore DIY wedding folks. And not the kind of DIY wedding where you kind of don't believe they aren't related to Martha Stewart. I mean don't get me wrong everything was insanely gorgeous but there weren't a million and one little details all over the place and, ya know what, it didn't even matter. They had 1) a cussing carousal and ferris wheel and 2) kick-ass guests who know how to rock a dance floor. And their ceremony...oh the ceremony!...why did I not think of using a line from my FAVORITE prince album!!! Oh man. Priceless. And a Kate Bush inspired frock for your interpretive first dance? Yes, please. Sign me up.

So go immerse yourself in the goodness and badassness (yes, I just made that word) of this wedding over at Feather Love and the rad DOUBLE feature on Once Wed!!!

Am I Dreaming?

If I am, PLEASE don't wake me up! My cake and cupcakes photographed by the goddess of photography - Noa of Feather Love - and posted on 100 Layer Cake??? I die. My jaw was just sitting on my desk as I looked at this super rad wedding. Lindsey and Bryce are just the sweetest, cutest couple ever and their personalities shown through on their day. Congrats you two!Lindsey and Bryce chose four flavors - Chocolate-Covered Banana, Tres Leches, Dilly Dilly and Whiskey and Beer (the cake was Whiskey and Beer as well).
