This Ceremony Tree Was Adorned With Hundreds of Blooms
Why bring in an alter when you can simply embellish a larger than life tree with a gorgeous array of blooms? That is just where we start this vineyard wedding overlooking the sea. It is layered with a stunning fall color palette and striking details crafted by Birds of a Feather Events, with florals by The Southern Table and imagery shot by Charla Storey.

Amanda and Daryl were married at Catalina View Gardens overlooking a vineyard and the ocean with beautiful views of Catalina Island in front of 50 of their closest friends and family. The ceremony space has a gorgeous tree and rather than bringing in an alter, we elected to utilize the tree instead and adorned it with hundreds of flowers in shades of pink, plum, and red.
After leaving the ceremony, guests headed to cocktail hour on the pavilion and grabbed a calligraphed Lucite escort card hanging by black silk ribbon from a tree at the entrance to the space. Guests enjoyed small bites in front of the floral adorned fireplace while the couple finished up photos with their families and their puppy. Shortly after, guests found their seats under the cafe lights and stars and enjoyed a dinner of street tacos and partook in made to order guacamole from a roving cart.
Reception tables were set with low and lush centerpieces of garden roses, ranunculus, dahlias, and peonies and were accented by fruit arrangements and silk table runners. Place settings consisted of matte black plates, gold flatware, vintage carnival glass, and a menu. Our palette was a mix of bright colors with some pops of black and purple to compliment the season. Guests danced into the evening and headed out with a Texas sized donut from LA staple, Randy's Donuts at the end of the evening - a must stop for Amanda and Daryl as they leave LAX whenever they come to town.
