rustic forest wedding

Saratoga Springs | Long bridge | rustic forest | Wedding | Mayra + Ryan

 

Mayra and Ryan got married at Saratoga Springs, a unique outdoor venue tucked between redwoods, a trickling stream, and the iconic Longbridge.  I loved how involved their family was to set everything up and Mayra and Ryan's fun personalities!

Check out some of their fun details! I love the drippy candles and gorgeous pinks and purples. 

 

UC Botanical Garden | Mather Redwood Grove | Wedding | Christina + Patrick

 

Christina and Patrick got married in the beautifully green UC Botanical Garden's Mather Redwood Grove.  Everything about their wedding was lush with a modern twist, from their floral arrangements to their ceremony in the cathedral-like redwood grove.  

To lead their guests along the windy picturesque trail, Christina and Patrick asked Tiny Home to create a little musical procession by serenading their guests on the guitar. Sonya and Gabe of Tiny Home are beloved friends of ours and they did the exact same thing for our wedding! It was one of our favorite moments and it was a perfect way to get everyone riled up for the reception!
