When it came time to pick a wedding location, these two California sweethearts chose to venture back to where it all began – San Luis Obispo. Opting for a whimsical design chock full of mint, gold and navy, they built a day that spoke to their individual styles with just the right amount of California cool. Feast your eyes on the vintage trailer turned dessert bar, and party on in the full gallery from Danielle Poff.
From The Bride…With Nick being from the Bay Area and myself from Los Angeles, our first year of dating was long distance. Every few weeks we’d meet up in the San Luis Obispo area for the weekend since it was a three hour drive for both of us on the dot.. We spent many amazing times there, especially the one when he popped the question. Besides our wedding, this was the best day of my life! At that moment I knew we HAD to get married near San Luis Obispo and bring our friends and family to where we fell in love with each other.
Pulling up to the Garden at Peacock Farms, you’re greeted by one of the cutest fruit stands you’ll ever see. There are beautiful vineyards, gardens and a bridal suite that is every bride’s dream. The groom was instantly sold after seeing the man cave with a huge flat screen (I mean what groom wouldn’t be?!).We both knew the moment we walked in that this was it, this is us, this is everything we could have dreamed for our big day! One piece that really stood out was the vintage blue trailer that was just perfect for everything we envisioned for our decor, which we used for our dessert bar. We knew we wanted something vintage and elegant with a fun and relaxed feel but more importantly we wanted something that was us and really wanted to give our guests a vibe that brought out the both of us. With the bridesmaids in all mint, the boys in mint plaid ties and navy suit pants, the mixes of wood, gold, mint and chevron gave off that perfect feel better than we had imagined. Nick and I are party people and wanted to bring that out in the music. We choose a little bit of funk and A LOT of 90’s rap which had all of our guests up shaking their tail feathers all night long! Being on the dance floor with all our loved ones was one of the best parts of the night. This was the best day in both of our lives and will forever be so special to us.
