Picture Perfect Dress & Shoes

From the Bride: My dedicated and talented bridesmaid, Esther Kim, painstakingly added Swarovski crystals to my Kate Spade shoes. My other bridesmaid, Kayleigh Sevi, journeyed with me through the heart of LA's garment district to find the perfect fabric in the perfect shade of pink for my dress. Her mother, Denise Sevi, seamstress extraordinaire, pinkified my Maggie Sottero dress by adding the fabric under the skirt's many layers of tulle.

A Quiet Little Theme

The second I stepped into Twin Oaks Garden Estate I felt I was falling down the rabbit hole into another world. The venue inspired me to do something I never would have imagined--have a themed wedding! The enclosed, intimate garden with its stone fountains, vine-covered tunnels, and abundance of flowers lent itself perfectly to our classic Alice in Wonderland theme. While it really required no decoration, collecting items like teacups, candelabras, and old clocks, to jazz it up was so much fun!

The outdoor ceremony at Twin Oaks Garden Estate was the ideal venue for this Alice in Wonderland inspired wedding. With a quaint gazebo decorated with giant pink paper roses, and green toad stools lined the aisle, along side pink roses. Do you love?

Thank You For The Help

I also owe my family and friends a thousand times over for their help on my various DIY projects, including my paper flower arch and mushroom aisle decor, and the giant moss hearts with keyed escort cards.

A Little Photographic Love

To say I am pleased with the way Brianna Venzke captured our special day is an understatement. I was complete elated when I saw the photographs--thoughtful, romantic, and simply oh-so-pretty. From the get-go, Brianna was completely committed to telling our story, and her wonderful, warm personality and confidence really put me at ease about the process, beginning to end.
