Romantic Courtyard Wedding at the Villa San Juan Capistrano

Kristie & Tim's wedding was at the Villa San Juan Capistrano, a former 1920s Spanish Colonial private estate. This romantic courtyard wedding was light and airy with touches of lace and distressed mercury glass vases throughout the rustic venue. You are going to especially love the all the florals designed by Fantasy Floral Designs. We were all ooh and awweing over the long birch tree vases. Such a stunning centerpiece.

From the Bride:The best tip I can give to brides is to have their dress made. I helped design my dress with a friend of mine who is a seamstress (which made it really special), and I saved so much money on the dress alone!

How fantastic are the bridesmaid dresses? They coordinate perfectly with the rose and gardenia bouquets. We can only imagine how beautiful the roses smelt. We especially love that each of  Kristie's bridesmaid has a monogram gold necklace. No doubt a gift from Kristie for standing by her side on her special day.

On the Venue: The Villa San Juan Capistrano is a turn-of-the-century home covered in ivy, located in Southern California. A beautiful stone courtyard sets the stage for a romantic wedding ceremony and reception, all shaded by ancient fruit trees, and enhanced by flickering gas lanterns throughout the property. Top-notch audiovisuals, a garden shed converted into a built-in bar, a beautiful bridal suite with a customized rain shower, and a groom’s room complete with a pool table are just a few amenities The Villa has to offer — making it the perfect location for a luxurious wedding!

The gorgeous floral arrangements created by Fantasy Floral Designs are stunningly displayed in birch tree vases, complimenting the rustic setting of this romantic wedding. The table numbers created out of birch wood uniquely tie the whole event together. It was  rustic chic elegance at its finest.

My husband and I wished that we sat at our sweetheart table longer and had a sufficient meal! According to all our guests, the food was amazing, and I can honestly say I have no idea what it tasted like! We wished we would have let our guests come to us, as opposed to us coming to them.
