Classic Elegance Rainy Spring Wedding in the Mountains

Jenn and Zack were married on a rainy spring day at the Nestldown retreat in California - and the results are gorgeous! Nestled in the redwoods, their wedding venue offered both breathtaking views and rustic elegance, providing the perfect backdrop to their romantic wedding ceremony and reception. The bridal party looked fantastic, with the bridesmaids in long navy dresses and the groomsmen in gray slacks with dress shirts, ties, and suspenders.

Every last detail was put together thoughtfully - from the photo guest book to the super cute homemade placecards complete with meal choice indicators. Soft ivories and whites are used throughout the flowers and linens to complement the navy accents. Chevron tablecloths draw attention to the cake and gift tables, and add a dash of whimsy to an elegant event. We can't thank Julie Nicole Photography enough for sharing this incredible - and beautifully captured - wedding with us!

Laid Back Beachside Florida Wedding

When Melissa from Melissa Serra Photography sent us this gorgeous Florida wedding, we breathed a sigh of relief.  The white sand, the blue water, we can almost feel the warm ocean air and saltwater spray.  Sigh.  There is absolutely nothing better than the relaxed island feel of a beachside wedding.

Kira and Cory were lucky enough to wed among the stunning Florida beaches along with their closest family and friends.  Their relaxed reception was held in the beautiful backyard of Kira's parents family home. Nearly everything was handmade by the bride and groom.  From the bouquets to the reception decor even down to the gorgeous bamboo wedding arbor where they said their vows.  Kira's bouquet was handmade by her mother and included antique brooches that held special meaning to her.  From the boho styling to the casual decor, everything about this wedding has us completely smitten.

 

Simple yet elegant, this gorgeous bamboo arbor was handmade by the bride and groom's family and looked simply stunning blowing in the wind at their beachside ceremony.

 

This tiki bar with hand written chalkboard menu screams island living.  Such a great way to add an effortless, relaxed feel to a beach wedding.
