Modern Wedding at the Threshold of Winter and Spring

It’s official, the dark and moody florals at this California wedding are not to be missed.  Natalie Choi Events brought Rachel and Dan’s dream wedding day to life, and The Loved Co filled it with blooms that we can’t get enough of.  Every inch of this elegant day is artfully captured by Nirav Patel, visit the full gallery to get lost in all the lovely.







Rachel and Dan wanted the concept of their wedding to reflect the beauty of spring emerging from the darkness of winter, as a reflection of their love that bloomed during the pandemic.





Set at the historical Montalvo Arts Center, spring blooms were framed by dark moody plates and soft velvet linens. Our bride, Rachel, wore a two-piece set from Emily Riggs, with an unconventional lace top and black skirt.





Instead of a first dance, Rachel and Dan performed the first song together – their rendition of I love you by Billie Eilish.
