You had us at cafe latte color palette… no seriously, this romantic wedding inspiration from Lauren Fair Photography and Aly Ann Events has us in h e a v e n. This dream team of vendors brought European grace and beauty to the California coast and the results are absolutely breathtaking. From the fairytale ceremony scene at the Allegretto Abbey to the lush fleurs that decorate the tablescape from Gavita Flora – prepare to fall in love with every inch of this styled shoot.
From Aly Ann Events… Nestled in the hills of the central coast, Allegretto Vineyard Resort boasts Tuscan-inspired architecture, Mediterranean gardens and lush olive orchards. The French abbey is simply charming and provides an intimate setting for destination nuptials. With a high ceiling and gorgeous stain glass windows, the space transports you to Provence. On a crisp Spring morning following evening rainfall, our creative team brought European flair to the California coast.
It was a gorgeous day to capture all of the beautiful and intentional details the Ayres family incorporated during the development of this boutique hotel. While designing this fine art editorial, Krista and Briana of Gavita Flora, and I chose a light café latte color palette, rich in California golden tones. Lauren Fair captured romantic portraits of our sweet couple around the olive groves and in the old-world chapel, capturing the big and small moments in the beautiful California light!
We wanted to showcase the natural beauty of the property, complimenting it with delicate florals and graceful lines as portrayed by the stationary suite by Shotgunning for Love Letters. Lauren Fair Photography captured our vision exquisitely, featuring two separate bridal looks by Lazaro and Allison Webb of JLM’s flagship boutique in West Hollywood.
Danielle Ryan Beauty accentuated Hannah’s soft complexion and completed her look with stunning accessories by Lindsay Marie and ethereal shoes from Bella Belle’s Edelweiss Bridal collection. Her fiancé and husband to be, Kane, looked like the perfect gentleman in a light blue notch lapel suit from Friar Tux. Kimberly, the owner and artist behind the Butter End in Los Angeles, designed a stunning lace cake to compliment our neutral color story.
All About Events completed our vendor team with their alfresco dining tabletop décor. Incorporating French blue hues into the reception provided a nice contrast to the sandy landscaping. After our time on property, we sincerely believe Allegretto’s welcoming staff and manicured vineyard grounds stage a truly romantic setting for any “I Do’s”.
