A + B Wedding | Kohl Mansion | Featured on Ruffled Blog

As soon as Yelena from The Stylish Soiree sent me over her design concept for this wedding I knew it was going to be jaw dropping amazing.  The details this wedding had were just amazing.  My favorites though include this gorgeous paper runner that Yelena made for the dessert table and the arch I made for the ceremony.   Yelena gave me a general idea of what she was envisioning for the arch and she let me do my thing (which I love).  She gave me the green light to be creative and I loved how it all turned out.

And this bouquet...OMG it was filled with all the flowers I love.  Peonies, garden roses, dahlias, ranunculus, succulents, artichoke, millet, billy buttons, privet berries, scabiosa pods, calla lilies...just to name a few.

And here is the arch I made with plum branches and some other foliage.  

The table runner that Yelena made of The Stylish Soiree.  So beautiful!!

Berry + Gold Photo Shoot

When Amanda of One True Love Vintage Rentals asked me to be a part of this shoot there was no doubt that I wanted to be a part of it.  She sent me visions of gold, glitter, berry colored flowers, talked of a whisky bar and a dessert table.  Who can say no to that?  And to top it off, it was going to take place in these ruins at Kunde Family Estates located in Napa Valley region.  No words can actually describe this place - it's jaw dropping amazing.

Here are a couple of sneak peeks and you can see more here at Green Wedding Shoes.

S + Y Wedding | Clift Hotel | San Francisco

This all started with a friend names Sue.  She got married two years ago at The Mountain Winery.  You can see her wedding here.  Sue found me through Sarah who recommended me.  Sarah was not engaged at the time but followed my blog (which makes me love her to a thousand pieces).  So of course when it was time for Sarah to get married, she contacted me and I could not refuse.  Especially when she told me her vision of babies breath puff balls that she wanted.  And to put the cherry on top, she told me that Vero of Vero Suh Photography was her photographer.

Side story: Vero was kind enough to allow me to shadow her for a wedding.  The story is long and really meant for another post but let me tell you...these photographers work hard.  It was 100 degrees out and we were all melting but Vero had a smile on her face the whole time.  Amazing!
