Modern Mixed Metal Tulsa Wedding at Pearl District Building

October 15, 2017 | Junebug Weddings

Savannah and Griffin’s Pearl District Building wedding was a shimmering, elegant fusion of modern and earthy vibes featuring a sparkling mix of gold, silver, and rose gold accents. The contemporary venue created a mood of downtown urban chic, with modern exposed brick, crystal chandeliers, and fabulously ornate décor. Assorted metals perfectly accented the color palette of cool-toned greens, blush, navy, and grey of the bridemaids’ mismatched dresses from Lulu’s. From the bride’s golden statement necklace, to whimsical details like gold and silver balloons, stunning macramé, and a fabulous wedding cake and decadent donut dessert table from Livi Lee’s Donuts. We love how much fun photographer Chelsea Bollinger had capturing this fun-loving couple and their large wedding party, from the bridesmaids getting celebrating on their balcony in silk, floral robes to the bride and groom enjoying a late-night snack from Lone Wolf food truck.

The Couple:

Savannah and Griffin

The Wedding:

The Pearl District Building, Tulsa, Oklahoma

The most important part in planning the wedding was that it reflected who we are. We wanted to throw a big party for all our friends and family.

I wanted a mixture of things. I really like simple but elegant. I chose more of a simple lace wedding dress that I had made. I wore Kendra Scott jewelry. My bridesmaids wore all different dresses from Lulus. They had three colors to chose from. The groomsman wore navy suits with grey ties.

We chose the first venue we looked at. It had everything we wanted. It was vintage with brick walls and lights everywhere. It had the perfect set up for our food truck.

We wanted our wedding to be like us. My husband is Native American, so we used a lot of his culture. I love bohemian and earthy, so we kinda mixed the two.

We grew up as neighbors when we were kids, so we planted a succulent using the dirt from our backyards. Our officiant was also our crossfit coach so that made it fun.

The song the bridal party walked out to was a song we found for a video my husband put together for me, “Light the Sky” by Lyonn. I walked down to Cassie Latshaw singing “Cleopatra” by the Lumineers. Our first dance was “Perfect” by Ed Sheeran.

Intimate and Down-to-Earth Wya Point Resort Wedding in Vancouver Island

October 15, 2017 | Junebug Weddings

O’Shea and Ignacio’s Wya Point Resort wedding was a three-day experience that celebrated the importance of friends and family, fun, and adventure in a beautifully magical setting. While searching for the perfect location, the couple looked for somewhere unforgettable, full of natural beauty, with no restraints on time or music, and conveniently close to civilization. Their gorgeous ceremony on a black sand beach, surrounded by rocky cliffs and lush forest was exactly what they had envisioned. With the exception of stunning, abundant florals by Compass Wedding Café and a few professions from the surrounding area, this incredible wedding was put together with the hard work and love of friends and family. We love how Scott Little Photography captured the intimate celebration and amazing views of the ocean, forests, and islands, but especially the couple that this day was all about.

The Couple:

O’Shea and Ignacio

The Wedding:

Wya Point, Vancouver Island, Canada

For us the most important aspect of planning our wedding was creating an experience that showcased the importance of our friends and family by having them all together for three days of fun, adventure, and bonding in a magical location.

Our ceremony was a true reflection of us and our unity as a couple. Because half of our family is from Mexico we asked our close friend Rafa to translate our ceremony into Spanish so everyone could enjoy and understand our commitment to one another. Maybe it was our love or maybe the magic that was in the air, but as we were saying our vows to one another, two eagles soared and hovered above us.

Ultimately we were looking for somewhere either in Vancouver or on Vancouver Island that was outdoors, could host and house all of our guests, somewhere that we could be for more than one day, somewhere with no noise restrictions as we are a Mexican Irish unity, somewhere magical and unforgettable, and somewhere that had close enough proximity to a town or somewhere interesting for our guests to visit or explore on their downtime. We came across Wya Point and it seemed to have everything we were looking for.

We are so thankful to Scott, he truly went above and beyond. Not only did he take photos from dawn till the wee hours of the wedding day, he took photos all weekend and somehow at all the right moments. We had asked for photos that were candid and unposed, with the exception of some of our couples’ shots, and he really hit a home run here, we honestly never knew where he was! Scott truly captured the magic of the entire weekend.

This was a wedding made by all of our friends and our family, not only from their hardwork and dedication, but by their presence and love. With the exception of just the few professionals from Ucluelet and Tofino, everyone listed are our close friends, all of the music, the food, the set-up, hair, make-up, everything was done by our friends and family! They all stand out!

The most memorable part of the day was when we walked into the tent to be greeted by all of our friends and family as Mr. and Mrs. A. Our wedding was put together with love and hard labour by our friends and family. When we walked into the tent to see how our friends and family had pulled together to decorate and set-up, it was amazing, way better than we could have ever imagined.

Romantic Pastel Wedding at The Casino San Clemente

October 14, 2017 | Junebug Weddings

Rachel and Michael’s historic seaside celebration at The Casino San Clemente featured stunning Spanish colonial architecture and a lush and dreamy color palette perfect for their enchanting ceremony and patio reception. Ethereal pastel pinks and pale green florals by Hello Honey Flower Co. Floral Design perfectly accented the tree-shaded garden, chic outdoor fireplace and simple table décor that created a private oasis for their guests. The bride’s elegant Lover’s Society wedding gown featured modern, graphic lace, long sleeves and a full train and looked glowing with loose, ethereal waves and simple olive headband. We love how Kayci Roth Photography captured these two barefoot and beaming on the pebbly San Clemente beach at sunset, with the palest of pink streaking the clouds.

The Couple:

Rachel and Michael

The Wedding:

The Casino San Clemente, San Clemente, California

The most memorable part of the day was being able to see all our planning and different aspects of the day come together. It was really exciting to see our hard work and little details being pulled into a whole experience. Sharing that experience and celebrating our love together with close friends and family was one of the best feelings.

My grandfather has been a huge part of my life and the pillar of our family. We wanted to included him as a part of our ceremony to speak words of wisdom and guidance as we joined our lives together. My grandparents have had a strong unfailing love for 57 years.

During the planning process it was very important to make sure each of my vendors were people that clicked well with me and my style. Finding genuinely good people that you would be friends with in the real world makes a huge difference in the wedding planning process. Just because a vendor looks perfect, doesn’t necessarily mean they’d be a good fit for you.

Our wedding favors were hand crafted chocolate gems from Elise Cakes. We had two different colors, a grey and white marble and a simple peachy pink. Each were individually decorated with gold flake on the top. Everyone loved them!

It’s easy to get lost with all the little details popping up here and there and wish it was all over at times. But take in all the hiccups and embrace them. It goes by way too quickly. So be present in the moment and hold on to it.
