We attended the most beautiful wedding a few weeks ago in Carmel Valley. From the moment we sat down at the ceremony we were enveloped into a shimmering aura of love and whimsy, captured so well by Keana Parker of One Love Photography.

The bride and her maids did ALL the decor themselves including the flowers! If I had to pin down a theme I would say it was a Vintage, Rustic, Elegant, Musical Wonderland with pops of purple.

A hand drawn save-the-date and wedding program cover set the tone. Homemade lavender eye pillows welcomed guests in their hotel rooms. And at each place setting, chewy caramels with a side of Himalayan Pink Sea Salt were best when enjoyed together, of course.

Humble coffee tins were transformed by cooper spray paint and frothy baby’s breath or fragrant lilacs.

The bride and her dad DANCED down the aisle to this darling song Crayola Doesn’t Make a Color for Your Eyes performed live.

Those creative, hardworking bridesmaids in 50 shades of violet. Notice how the banister is wrapped in baby’s breath? Love this touch!

The handsome groom and his stunning bride.

The seating cards were hung with mini cloths pins and nestled between wedding pictures of family and friends.

And thanks to RedShoeLA we danced for hours and hours under the twinkle lights. Some danced so much, they even ripped a dress.
