Elegant + Colorful California Wedding

There are no words to truly express how head-over-heels we are with Julie and Sam’s wedding. Not only does it have the most gorgeous color palette, but the florals by Chestnut & Vine are also nothing short of phenomenal. White clematis, astilbe, raspberries, succulents, dahlias, and among several others, orchids? Amazing. Watercolor stationery and hand painted signs by Julie Song Ink? Melt. Colorful hanging cranes? Stop it. All of this and a beautiful couple who absolutely beam with adoration for each other? We’ll be swooning over this wedding for quite a while! Bravo to the incredible team of vendors who put it together and to the incomparable Jose Villa for capturing these stunning images!

    love love love the flowers, cake and the bird details (probably because I am obsessed with birds) Gorgeous wedding!

  8. I wanted to ask Julie, the bride, if she is willing to part (and recycle!) with any of the wedding signs (“mr & mrs, ceremony, welcome”). I would love to have them for our Nov 2012 wedding in Maui! Please contact me, willing to negotiate pricing :D THANK YOU! Absolutely beautiful!

  9. The colors, textures… Love! Everything is so delicately chosen
