Real Weddings: Frances + Jared

Frances and Jared wanted their wedding to feel more like a festive dinner party than a formal reception. Unfussy garden meets shabby chic, Sherman Library and Gardens in Corona del Mar was an amazing place to host the event. It was clean and elegant and add in beautiful personal details like a stunning Ketubah and family-made chuppah and I’m always sold. I love the classic florals by LaVonne’s Florist and of course you can never go wrong with traditional engraved Crane’s wedding invitations. Ashleigh Taylor did a gorgeous job capturing the day!
