Gardens have long served as a source of inspiration for romance, and this wedding amongst the greenery does not disappoint. Filled with modern whimsy, the bride and groom worked with Milk Events and Weddings By Darlene to design and execute a day that included special details at every turn. Our favorite? The couple’s flower girl, their dog Unagi! Blooms By Morgan turned up the romance by filling the day with beautiful florals in soft hues. You can feel the love in the beautiful images by Ether & Smith. Head to the full gallery for endless amounts of inspiration.
From the bride… I was fortunate enough to find a Spanish inspired venue that was rustic and modern romantic. I gravitated to marble and gold as the running theme throughout, and really wanted to see the florals marry that throughout the wedding. I realized it fit really well with the style of the dress, venue architecture, and the landscape.
Given that the wedding happened during the pandemic, I realized having an intimate guest list is more special. Unagi, my fur baby, made an exclusive walk down the aisle as the flower girl. But the most memorable moment was during the vow exchange. I thought that after several times of practicing, I wouldn’t get choked up, but it definitely took a while before I finished my vows in person!
My best advice for couples planning their wedding is to remember that your partner always has your best interest at heart. Learn to trust the person you’re in love with, and it will reciprocate back.
