Surrounded by the lush flowers of the Orcutt Ranch Horticulture Center, Brooke and Ian exchanged vows in a gorgeous garden ceremony. Memoire Events designed an affair that was the very definition of modern elegance, featuring exceptional greenery, a neutral color palette, and romantic elements. Emily Magers Photography documented the effortlessness of the day in every portrait and detail capture.

The Couple:

Brooke and Ian

The Wedding:

Orcutt Ranch Horticulture Center, West Hills, California

The Inspiration:

We wanted our wedding day to be intimate and natural, yet classic. I felt inspired by the lush flowers and greenery at our venue. I wanted it to feel like an old time, fancy dinner party, where we could eat, drink and laugh with our closest friends and family.

The Moments:

Ian: My favorite moment was when I heard the music starting to play at our ceremony and seeing my bride would be walking toward me.

Brooke: My favorite moment was similar..we hadn’t seen each other all day and I was just so excited to be seeing Ian for the first time of the rest of our lives together.

The Couple Recommends:

Emily Magers was amazing as our photographer. She was so kind and made the whole day so comfortable. There wasn’t a single picture we didn’t like. It’s so fun to have the moments she curated and captured.

Teresa from LA Party rents was a huge lifesaver. I had worked with her before at my job. She was super communicative and so excellent in what she and her team did. She was easy to work with and provided quality rentals, which was a huge blessing.

Lauren from Hello Darling Hair took so much thought and care into making my hair happen. She spent a lot of time with me the day of my wedding and it was so relaxing to chat with her the morning of the wedding in her studio.
