A Summer Wedding at the Maple Lawn
Surrounded by gorgeous blooming magnolia trees, on a radiant sunshiney day, Markkus and Maharlika stood hand in hand and exchanged their vows. From the start the bride had expressed that she wanted a simple, garden inspired wedding celebrated with close friends and family. You could see how her love for Jane Austen influenced the design of this day.
Jane Austen Wedding
The sun was shining, the birds fluttering through the air, and you could almost hear the Pride and Prejudice theme song playing in the distance. This stunning event was brought together with the most phenomenal vendors, giving us the most vibrant and fun day! Planned down to the detail and an absolute joy to photograph. This was the perfect way to kick off the most amazing spring!
Madonna Inn Wedding
Kim & John exchanged vows on a gorgeous, sunshiney spring day at the Madonna Inn. This historic hotel has become beloved in the SLO area (and beyond!) for its bright, quirky architecture and decadently themed rooms.
Dez & Jeremiah, The Astro Motel Elopement
The Astro Motel is truly Santa Rosa’s best kept secret. The property has been immaculately refurbished down to the last detail, with so many fun surprises in every corner. The orange and blue color scheme give a playful retro Palm Springs vibe while still feeling fresh and accessible. As much as I love some mid-century kitsch you don’t need to be a die-hard retro fan to enjoy this space.
