Sometimes we come across weddings that truly make our hearts skip a beat – today’s wedding was definitely one of them. Greenwood Events planned and designed the most beautiful day at La Venta Inn that was equal parts classic and cool. The bride stunned in a long sleeve Grace Loves Lace wedding dress and held a bouquet entirely made of olive branches (obsessed!!) Jeremiah and Rachel Photography was there to capture every magical moment that left us speechless. Just WAIT ‘till you see these adorable flower girls. Y’all better sit down for the one because you might be here awhile…
From Jeremiah and Rachel Photography... Kate and Ross had a beautifully intimate wedding at the stunning La Venta Inn in Palos Verdes Estates in Southern California. It was important for them to keep things relaxed, friendly and timeless. Therefore, Greenwood Events was their choice and a perfect fit to plan, produce and design their special weekend. Perfect for this fun loving, adventurous couple!
Darci from Greenwood Events channelled Kate’s California cool vibe with a perfect blend of timeless elegance. Inspired by the location’s Spanish tile motif, neutrals were the starting point with pops of blue throughout. West Pasture Studio designed the invitation suite, using hand painted Spanish tiles as accents.
Welcome baskets were custom designed for the guests with little touches of California, including wine, grapes, spiced nuts and cookies, with a welcome note by Wiley Valentine. The florals, also designed by Greenwood Events, were lush and elegant. Full of fluffy white peonies, garden roses, ranunculus, and a mix of textural greens.
Darci worked with The Ark Event Rentals and Theoni Collection to create a stunning reception space, including luxurious soft seating to create a cozy atmosphere. In true southern California fashion, we had a gorgeously sunny day. Ross’ adorable daughter, Cara and Kate’s niece, helped Kate put on her heels, and Kate gave Cara a matching Tiffany’s bracelet. It was a sweet moment right before the ceremony.
Guests were greeted by classic guitar playing from Chris Fossek, and after dinner, the party got really started when Soultones took the stage. The day was full of laughter, fun, the joining of two sweet families in a warm inviting space and obviously lots of love. We also had the pleasure of creating a Super 8 film for this sweet couple, that really shows the joyful emotions of the day!
