Joey has fond memories of growing up visiting Sunriver with his family. Taylor’s sister attended one of Kelsey’s (the Indigo Bride) weddings in Sunriver, where Summer provided the florals and the venue was the Mt. Bachelor Lawn and The Great Hall. Taylor’s sister couldn’t stop raving about the beauty of the wedding, how much she and her husband enjoyed their weekend in Sunriver, and the incredible food. Although the bride had never been to Sunriver herself, seeing the photos from that wedding and hearing Joey’s family’s praise, combined with her connection with Kelsey, convinced her it would be the perfect location for their celebration with all their loved ones.

[field title=”Proposal Story”]They started talking about getting married pretty soon into their relationship (cross-country long distance at 28 and 29 years old expedited lots!), but they both always cared more about a marriage and partnership than an engagement or even a wedding so she never really had any idea what Joey was going to do to propose. The only thing Taylor thought was that it would be in early 2023 and he told her and her friends that it would take place in New York City, because “that was where our love story started.” (His words)
Turns out this was all a lie and he was planning to propose around Christmas of 2022, and had coordinated with both of their families and some close friends to surprise her in Pebble Beach a few days after Christmas. They planned to drive to spend the day with his aunt and cousin at their house on 12/27 in their tiny rental car with Penny, their dog, but the weather had other plans and it was pouring the whole drive and throughout the day at Pebble Beach. Joey, who is always a happy human golden retriever, seemed kind of grumpy and mad about the rain which was very unusual. They decided to take Penny on a walk and throw a tennis ball for her around the neighborhood. Taylor remembers the rain easing up as they walked and just chatting about what they were looking forward to in the New Year. Little did she know both of their families were arriving at his aunts house and waiting in her living room. As they walked back towards the house, she noticed someone was on the back porch taking photos. Thinking it must be Joey’s cousin testing out some new Christmas gift, Taylor start waving energetically. The next thing she knew Joey has stopped walking and is down on one knee. All she remembers is being shocked, laughing so hard, and turning around to see all of their favorite people standing, cheering them on. [/field]

[field title=”Wedding Gown”]Taylor knew she wanted a timeless dress, one she could look back on in 20 to 50 years and still be deeply in love with. She fell madly in love with this strapless design with pockets by Mark Ingram Bride. It was the perfect choice for her summer wedding. [/field]
[field title=”Bridesmaid Dresses”]Sticking to the neutral theme, the bride didn’t want her bridesmaids to wear beige or champagne. She was looking for something with a pop that stood out as more unique. While researching, she came across Show Me Your Mumu’s wedding line and fell in love with the ‘Show Me The Ring Crisp”, which was a soft grey tone.[/field]

[section title=”The Details”]
[field title=”Food & Drink”]The photographer, Paulina Perrucci, is a childhood friend of the groom. Her father provided the wine for the welcome event from their family winery, Perrucci Family Vineyards. On their wedding day, the couple created two signature drinks: a Tom Collins for the bride and an Old Fashioned for the groom.[/field]
[field title=”Florals & Decor”]Florist, Summer Robbins, went all out for this couple! She took their timeless and classic idea to another level. Knowing that the couple was hilarious and constantly joked with each other, she realized that a polished look wouldn’t do. By including summer wildflowers and whimsical textures in every arrangement, she brought the wedding to life. On the day of the wedding, Summer made a last-minute change to the floral design. As her team was unloading the premade aisle runners, she fell in love with how they framed the steps. It made a bold statement as guests took their seats, making it the perfect last-minute decision that transformed the ceremony space.[/field]
[field title=”Wedding Cake”]The bride surprised the groom with a cake. He had thought they had agreed on simple desserts, but to his surprise, she had a custom cake made. It was designed to look like a baseball jersey from his favorite team, the San Francisco Giants.[/field]

[field title=”Special Detail #1″]The real MVP of the wedding day was their golden retriever, Penny. She was not only featured in their wedding logo but also a surprise for all the guests. No one knew she would run down the aisle after they said “I do”.[/field]
[field title=”Special Detail #2″]The mother of the groom surprised the wonderful couple with an Italian-themed rehearsal dinner. She had custom napkins made as gifts for them to use when guests visit their home. She also collaborated with the florist to create unique arrangements composed purely of greenery and tomatoes, instead of traditional flowers.[/field]
[field title=”Special Detail #3″]Since the bride and groom are not big fans of cake, they decided to offer small bites, donuts, and a cereal section instead. The groom is a big fan of cereal, and this was something he had been looking forward to since coming up with the idea.[/field]
