This stunning wedding captured by Michele Beckwith Photography with planning from Amorology is sure to teach you a thing or two about how to get real creative with your wedding decor. The adorable bride and groom hired the best of the best, aka Back Up Backdrops, to create a super fun escort display that is every music-lovers dream. The pastel floral arrangements by Bloomwell & Co. graced the tables at a reception surrounded by California’s soaring redwoods. The entire day was a total dream – see for yourself!
From Heather at Amorology… Our travel-happy, music-loving couple Danielle & Raj were a total joy to work with and looking back on their day gives us all the warm and fuzzies! Not only were they just all-around awesome to work with, but they had such a fun and unique story that served as an endless source of inspiration when it came to designing their day! A gorgeous and colorful invitation suite by Peanut Press Collective invited guests to witness Danielle and Raj marry under floral pillars by Bloomwell & Co. Surrounded by Redwoods and rolling hills in California wine country. After the ceremony and as guests headed over to cocktail hour, they were asked to sign-in by leaving the couple an “anniversary letter” offering advice for a particular anniversary year – a nod to the sweet hand-written letters Raj would write Danielle over their 8 years of dating.
After sipping on the vineyard’s house wines, guests were led to their seats with their own pair of head phones to use later in the evening for the silent disco! The headphones hung in rows under an “It’s Electric” neon sign fixed to a backdrop by Backup Backdrops to allude to the couple’s love of electronic and dance music.
With a palette of neutrals, grays and pastels with electric pops of citron and gold, a mix of high and low tables draped in patterned gold linens and hand-dyed pink fabric from Hostess Haven were set with simple gray chargers, glass dinner plates, and etched brass glassware to give a nod to Raj’s Indian roots. Tying back in the neon concept, each place setting was set with a neon-edged napkin for a pop of fun! To finish the night off on a high note, we encouraged guests to snack on a “Bust A Move” brownie on the way to the dance floor, where they were invited to “Leave It All Here” before wishing the happy newlyweds farewell under an arch of sparklers!
From Michele at Michele Beckwith Photography… Danielle and Raj are a super sweet and fun loving couple from San Francisco. They are know by their friends and family as the outgoing couple who loves to entertain. They are usually the ones who host an annual Friendsgiving in their SF apartment, so it was very important to them that their wedding felt like a gathering of all their closest friends and family, making sure that every one of their guests felt special and loved. Their wedding was a blend of two families coming together and the design was a reflection of that.
There was a modern mix of florals, nods to Raj’s Indian heritage in the tablescapes, and the couple’s love of music with a neon sign pointing to the silent disco headphone seating chart. Danielle and Raj genuinely adore and respect other. You could tell by the way they glanced at one another and held each other close when they were taking their portraits that it was true love. During their first look their were lots of happy smiles and laughs, and maybe even a few tears. They also stayed close by each other throughout the day when visiting guests. They are completely at ease with each other, and I can see why they make great travel companions as they continue to globe trot to far away countries and begin new adventures.
