Romantic Outdoor Affair in a Sea of Pastel

Fold a soft color palette into an already gorgeous backdrop and it never fails to evoke all out romance. Delbarr Moradi Photography also helps. Her images are the kind we want to hang on our walls and pin feverishly to our wedding boards. We first met this duo here and now their story is coming full circle. With styling by Amanda O'Shannessy Creative, florals by Huckleberry Karen Designs, and a gorgeous dessert spread by Dolce Cakes, this gallery is sure to be one of your faves.

From Amanda O Creative...When I initially met with Naomi and Vic to discuss their vision for their wedding they told me the story of how they ended up dating. They were in college and had been friends for a while but secretly they both had feelings for each other. One night they both had a dream that they kissed! Eventually they told each other about these dreams and of course - started dating soon after! Their dreams, which brought them together, played such an important part of their love story that we knew we had to incorporate them into their wedding design in some way. To help create a romantic, dream-like setting we decided on lots of soft, sunset inspired colors with washes of watercolor to give the design an ethereal vibe. Romantic florals and flowing chiffon framed Naomi and Vic as they exchanged vows overlooking the golden hills of Northern California. Guests found their way to their seats by picking up escort cards which were calligraphed by Naomi's talented bridesmaid. Pieces of sea glass, which brought in a beautiful mint color, served as weights for each card and were also used as sign holders. We incorporated the same mint color and lush florals into their dessert display where a watercolor sign that read "a dream is a wish your heart makes" was framed by greenery and soft pastel flowers. The same lush, romantic pastel flowers were found in the centerpieces and bouquets where pops of gold added just a little bit of sparkle and glam to the outdoor affair.
