A Fall Wedding at Vintners Inn in Santa Rosa

Happy Thursday lovelies! There are SO many exciting things going on at our planning and design headquarters and I can’t wait to share all of it with you! Get ready for some amazing prettiness on the blog during this month of love! But first, I want to share with you all one of my favorite weddings from last year. Amy and Alan were married at the beautiful Vintners Inn in Santa Rosa this past October and it is the perfect venue for a Fall Wedding as the leaves are falling and changing colors. They were engaged in France so they really wanted the Provence region of France to be the focal theme in sharing their love story on their wedding day. We really had so much fun with this wedding because Amy and Alan really trusted us with the vision and creativity that we had formulated for them and “TRUST” makes all the difference! Enjoy this tour de Provence of a wedding. Amy and Alan, I loved how your love story began in Cabo and how it blossomed into something so sweet. Your wedding day was so full of love and at one point when I looked around, the whole room was in tears. You are surrounded by people who love you and thank you for allowing me to be a part of something so special! Special thanks to Erica Chan for sharing these photos with us!

This wedding is so beautifully classic and vineyard inspired with so many original and special touches. From the bottom of my heart, enjoy!

I kinda really LOVE this photo of the guys.

This is my favorite photo of the two of them. So classic…so beautiful!

During cocktail hour, guests were invited to take a tour de France in the region of Provence. We custom designed a map of the highlights of Provence that signified Amy and Alan’s love for one another. There was also a lavender filling station for guests to interact and participate in which was a huge hit! Not only was it fun, they were able to take a little bit of Provence home with them…literally!

We created custom tags based off of old maps of each area that they chose and created escort tags for each guest. These were nailed to giant planks of wood to really give the feeling of an “old world” Parisian effect. Table Cards were also individually nailed to wooden boards and the story of the significance of each place was written for guests to read. I really loved this idea that we created for them, it was so fun!

This wedding was so insanely beautiful, thank you again to Amy and Alan for giving us the honor of being part of it!

Patty + Ethan : Engaged!

Happy Monday lovelies! It’s the perfect day for me to introduce you to our lovely July couple Patty and Ethan, especially because they are visiting this weekend in Northern California from Washington D.C. in preparation for their summer wedding! I absolutely love their engagement shoot because it is so quintessentially Washington D.C. with the monument in the background and the oh so beautiful foliage that only happens on the East Coast. And how cute is Patty in her red coat to match the foliage, not to mention her cowboy boots! They are such a fun couple that radiates with bubbliness and I can’t wait for their wedding to come in July. Cheers Patty and Ethan for a beautiful engagement session, thank you for coming all the way to California to spend a little time with me and cheer on the 49ers in person! Special thanks to our new East Coast friend, Stacey Vaeth Photography, for sharing these lovely photos with us!
