Real Weddings: Lyndsay + Ryan

Lyndsay and Ryan’s Coto de Caza, California wedding was lovely and sweet with tons of handmade details. Instead of Lyndsay taking Ryan’s name, they both decided to take Ryan’s Mother’s maiden name so many of the details for their day focused around the letter M, their new last initial. Just about all the decor for their wedding was either borrowed or recycled, and Lyndsay kept herself, friends, and family busy making fabric flowers, centerpieces, escort cards, and other miscellaneous pieces that were used around their venue. My favorite are the adorable embroidery hoops filled with lace! These photos by Gem Photo are so wonderfully pretty!
