Tiffany and Noli had known each other since middle school, but they didn't actually start dating until after college when they reconnected over their Finance studies. Through dating, they've shared a love of travel, their friends and family, and their precious orange cat, Bodie! Tiffany and Noli's wedding was the perfect combination of the bride's elegant style and the groom's fun-loving personality. For their special day, this couple created a beautiful dinner setting that transitioned into a downtown party in San Luis Obispo.

The bride wore "The Lottie" from Daughters of Simone, based in Fresno, California for their wedding at The Penny in downtown San Luis Obispo. In the bride's own words, "It was an absolute dream!" They wanted to create a getaway for the guests, and this was the ideal location. Because it was walking distance from a number of great restaurants, bars, and shopping, The Penny was perfect! The venue space had an industrial, yet romantic vibe with an outdoor space that really created the best of both worlds. And their super cute welcome sign? That was courtesy of the bride herself!

For their wedding, the goal was to have fun and also make sure to incorporate the groom's culture wherever possible. The bride was able to include elements important to her by having her grandfather officiate their ceremony in a moment that brought tears to everyone's eyes. To include Noli's Hispanic culture, the couple incorporated a mariachi band and a glass of champagne to greet each of their guests before the ceremony. The mariachi band even played right after the couple's first kiss to get the party started! Tiffany and Noli included touches of terracotta throughout the decor, and for the fun, they wanted the dance floor to be absolutely non-stop. They worked with an incredible DJ, Paul Thompson from Epic Entertainment, who really knew how to help the guests bring the party!
At the reception, the couple decided to forego a signature cocktail for an open bar and champagne greeting. The reception tables were definitely romantic to complement the industrial space, so they included lots of candles, roses, and the touches of terracotta. Each place setting had terracotta tiles from Mexico with the guests' names hand-written on them. The couple swears that it was truly the tablescape that "brought it all together." Tiffany and Noli cut into a vanilla with almond buttercream cake courtesy of SLO Cakery, and yes, they're saving some for their one-year anniversary!
