Jen and Chris are two of the sweetest, most fun people I’ve ever met. We were introduced by my dear friend Melissa, who has known the both of them FOREVER, and Jen and I hit it off instantly. In our initial consultation meeting, we sat and chatted for hours about all of the awesome DIY projects she had planned for the wedding – invites, menus, programs, a canopy full of lanterns, pillows… and crystals, crystals everywhere! I loved it all from the start and couldn’t wait to see it all in person.
Jen dreamed up a purple and orange color scheme with a Spanish-inspired flair; ceramic tiles were used as table numbers and as favors that doubled as placecards. They found Copperhill Catering, an amazing catering team, who created two kinds of paella for dinner, along with tapas and sangria for the cocktail hour and churros and chocolate for dessert. The guests went wild for Sweet and Saucy Shop’s red velvet and pumpkin cake pops, too!

Adorable (and delicious!) cake pops by Sweet and Saucy Shop, and a lovely little cake to go with them. Jen bedazzled the cake stand herself; the cake topper is from Bling Diva Designs.
The dance/lounge area required some intense setup - Chris and his parents built this canopy frame and set it up the day before the wedding; I got to hang the lanterns the next morning. It looked positively magical, especially after the sun went down.
I laughed so hard when I saw this picture. Definitely my favorite shot of the day! The smilebooth was provided by Emmycube Photography.
All in all, it was a gorgeous day full of love and happiness. Jen and Chris, I’m so glad I had the chance to get to know you and be a part of such a beautiful celebration! And huge thanks are due to the amazing vendors I got to work with:
