Dana describes her elegant California wedding to Michael as sparkly, but nothing is as sparkly as the smiles on their faces! While I love all the gorgeous decor planned by La Fete Weddings, and the amazingly lush centerpieces of hydrangea, tulips, and orchids by Cody Floral, it's those smiles that really get me. I can't even look at the gorgeous photos from Stephanie Hogue without getting a huge grin on my own face.

North Palm Beach Wedding at Lost Tree Club – Ashley and Max
Ashley and Max's wedding day was a gorgeous mix of tradition and fun! Their day started with a beautiful ceremony at Saint Edward Roman Catholic Church in Palm Beach, and then a celebration at Lost Tree Club that included a perfect sandy beach, pretty tropical flowers, and a lot of laughter. It all added up to a memorable day, captured beautifully by Jennifer Weiss Photography!

Pink, Coral, Peach and Yellow California Vineyard Wedding – Grace and Kyle
I just love the combination of classic wedding prettiness with the rustic touches of a California vineyard in today's wedding of Grace and Kyle, photographed by Vincent Au and planned by Frances Liu of Charmed Events Group!
Fun California Academy of Sciences Wedding – Caroline and Christopher
I might be a little biased (my path to the wedding industry had a few detours that involved my biology degree), but you don't have to love science to love Caroline and Christopher's super fun San Francisco wedding! Their day highlighted some quintessential San Francisco scenery and venues, including traditional cable cars, historic Old Saint Mary's Cathedral, the charming Garden of Shakespeare's Flowers at Golden Gate Park, and the standout California Academy of Sciences. The couple's decor choices wonderfully complemented the amazing venues, and the end result was a cohesive and fascinating wedding, beautifully captured by Cliff Brunk Photography!
Elegant and Rustic Wedding at HammerSky Vineyard – Beverly and Banjo
I love this one! Beverly and Banjo describe their wedding at the spectacularly scenic HammerSky Vineyard as rustic, but it is just so much more! The sunny, soft shades of yellow mixed with the palest smoke grey was sophisticated. The gorgeous summery flowers were lush and romantic, and the sunset over the vineyard, captured by Mike Larson, perfectly ethereal. All of it combined? Elegant, natural, and oh-so-happy!
Rustic Summer Sonoma Wedding – Anna and Steve
I'm a big foodie in my non-wedding hours, so the thought of a wedding weekend inspired by a dinner party is just my style! Especially when it's a wedding as filled with delectable looking food, floral design and decor as this one! Couple Anna and Steve, with the help of Jenne Hohn Events and Chestnut Vine Floral Design, really hit it out of the ball park with their rustic and romantic Sonoma, California wedding. These photos by Meaghan Elliott Photography look heavenly!
