Jenica + Kevin’s Secluded Garden Estate Wedding

weddings

My favorite part of working with florals are the varies color palettes that I get to explore.  Jenica + Kevin’s wedding was in the Fall and we used a lot of warm and moody tones to reflect the season. We kept with the gold and marsala burgundy hues, while mixing in with textural sage greens.  When I first met with Jenica, I was immediately drawn to her attention to detail. She has such a great artistic eye and I knew that we would be able to work so well together!

 

Half way into her wedding planning, she moved half way across the globe to Asia and so we were communicating and chatting remotely, but mostly through emails. But her vision for her wedding stayed consistent and clear.

I’m pretty excited to share this wedding with you.  This sweet young couple is full of joy and love. Kaitlin might be one of the sweetest people out there and Ryan is a lucky man!

 

 

I love how classic Kaitlin went with her dress.  From the fit to the sleeves to the buttons and the timeless lace that embodies the gown.

I’m so happy to be sharing this sweet young couple’s love and special day! Seriously, going through their photos gives me the butterflies because you can just see the pure joy and love on their faces!

 

I absolutely love Sadie’s dress and that subtle train with the double open lace back is just so sweet.

 

Gahhh, look at Sadie’s face. She makes me want to get married again to my husband. That first time seeing your best friend at the alter and ready to pledge your life to him is moment that needs to be captured for forever.

 

Jane and Justin’s Franciscan Garden Wedding

weddings

As this holiday season is quickly approaching us and wedding season is slowing down, I love using this time to reflect on all the amazing clients I got to work with and weddings I got to be a part of through florals. It’s truly amazing how faithful God has been in this little flower journey of mine. Through this, I am blown away by all the incredible people that has been put in my path. I’m just grateful. So very grateful. And this wedding is one of them.

Jane and Justin’s wedding was back in March at the Franciscan Gardens in San Juan Capistrano. The color palette we went with was an earthy spring tone. Lots of muted and soft citrus and blush. We wanted to give it a very romantic spring vibe.

Monique and Corey’s Modern Downtown Central Library Wedding

It’s been a minute since I’ve shared my recent work.  It’s been such a busy 2018 so far and I can’t believe it’s already half way over! I am so happy to share Corey and Monique’s wedding that was held in the heart of downtown at the Central Library.  What I love about this space is all the modern and clean lines. We played off the building structure and masculine texture to soften it with the florals.

Keri and Scott’s Rustic Boho Wedding

Guys, where do I even begin with this couple? I’ve never been more obsessed and in love than with these two. They have an incredible love story that is filled with heart ache, redemption, faith, pure friendship and love.  I wish I could share the details of their journey but it’s not my story to tell but to tell only of their first day of their forever together in these pictures.

Katie and Eric’s Blushing Neutral Wedding at Quail Ranch, Simi Valley

Katie and Eric’s wedding was definitely one for the books.  Every little detail was planned to the T and the vendors that were apart of this wedding were out of this world! It’s amazing when you work with insanely talented creatives who know their trade well and  hustle and give generously through their talents, how beyond amazing the event comes together. From Katie’s stunning blushing bridal dress from designer Haley Paige to Eric’s Gucci dress shoes, this wedding was nothing short of class.

The color palette for this wedding was to air on the side of lots of neutrals with pops of blush because we really wanted Katie’s amazing designer blush gown to stand out!

My favorite part of her bridal bouquet are the various garden roses that I used from a San Diego local rose farm called Ella Rose.

Raven and Alec: Winter Love

weddings

I’ve been beyond slacking on sharing these amazing weddings that I’ve been doing! It’s a combination of pregnancy lazy (I just want to sit on the couch and eat ice cream), the summer heat, and exhaustion from chasing after a toddler who just doesn’t have a stop button. Needless to say, I’m sorry! But here I am! And I’ve got to share this amazing wedding that took place at the bride’s parents’ estate. Raven is apart of a well known family here in San Diego where her family owns Hanger 94 (an action sport shop in East County San Diego) and her brother in law and dad started The Salty Crew which has blown up like crazy! Not to mention, this family is all about family, which what I admire about Raven and her family the most! They are all so close and tight knit and I love it! So when I had met with her initially for her floral consultation, I loved that her mother and sisters were all there!

I absolutely loved dreaming up this winter jewel toned palette with Raven. She wanted to keep things classy with black gowns for the bridesmaids and black tuxes for the guys. Adding pops of deep red, dusty blues, and varies tones of fuchsia pinks that brought out the rich jewel tone colors for this evening wedding. 

Sarah and Michael: Thursday Club, San Diego

weddings

I’m so thrilled to share this rich and romantic wedding held at the North Chapel in Point Loma and reception at the Thursday Club that overlooks the ocean.  Can you ask for a more dreamy wedding? The shades of plum gave the wedding a luxurious touch but having it at the Thursday Club gave it that airy and vintage touch as well. Sarah and Michael are such a stunning couple and I’m so thrilled to share a small piece of their special day! Special thanks to my friend Garrett Richardson, one of the photographers from Clove and Kin for taking these stunning photos! It’s always a dream to work with great artists!

Enjoy!
