From Kristeen LaBrot ... From the moment Hillary first described their wedding, I knew this was going to be fun. They wanted their wedding to be a unique mixture of the country and the beach since Hillary grew up around the ocean and Matt's a mountain guy. In Hillary's words, she wanted their wedding to evoke the feelings of "a country home with the ocean as the backyard." Scripps Seaside Forum in La Jolla was the perfect location. The ceremony took place with an ocean backdrop on a big green grass lawn. Guests sipped iced tea and cocktails, and munched on cheeses from around the world. At the reception, each table had it's own unique mix of floral arrangements displayed in vintage glass bottles which popped against the ice blue shantung silk linens. The seating arrangements on multicolored fabric squares were hung on vintage wooden shutters.The guest book was a thumbprint tree with a sign asking guests to "please leaf your thumbprint." The bride and groom are both world travelers and huge foodies so they chose to have Thai, Indian AND Mexican food stations. Sliders and fries were served as a late night snack followed by It's it ice cream sandwiches, ending the night on a sweet note.
