What three adjectives best describe your wedding? Flexible, playful and uniting

What was your wedding color palette? Avocado and natural kraft

What inspired your personal wedding style, and how did you incorporate your style and personalities into your big day? When we giddily called my parents to tell them the exciting news that we were engaged, my mom said, Shall I book the Desert Botanical Garden? We secured the venue within the week! The garden is absolutely breathtaking with statuesque cacti framing a backdrop of vibrant red rock mountains. We wanted our wedding decor and details to feel natural and local, as if they had sprung up from the garden itself. The florals were succulents found in the surrounding desert, and a green, twine and kraft paper palate kept wedding details from overshadowing the beauty of the garden. When rain rolled in and temperatures dropped 30 degrees, we overnighted 70 avocado pashminas for our lady guests. They even matched the desert!

We wanted our guests to have a truly unique experience that was chic, yet approachable and fun. Our verbiage and homemade wedding favors were often cheeky. I’m a big DIY crafter, so I loved designing the components myself – thank goodness for family and friends to help stamp, glue, tie and cut!

Looking back, what are the moments, decisions or memories that you love the most about your wedding? Where to start? We both loved so many moments of the day – spending the morning in anticipation with our friends and family, seeing each other for the first time and saying our vows. But our first dance was a clear winner. We worked with a fabulous choreographer and danced to the happy tune, “Home” by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. As we twirled and giggled, our guests circled round and clapped in unison to the music. It was the perfect kick-off to the celebrations that ensued.

What piece of advice would you give to a bride planning her wedding today? Know it won’t all go as planned – whether its uncooperative weather, making the rounds to all your tables or snapping a candid with your grandfather. But it will most likely be the best darn day of your life. Just relax, be present and enjoy your guests and each other. It goes so fast, it’s not worth fretting about anything once the event begins!

Men’s Wear for Grooms and Groomsmen from The Grunion Run

May 8, 2012 | editorial team

fun, casual men's wear for grooms and groomsmen from The Grunion Run

While planning our Fashion Report photo shoot that took place last Friday (and that we’ll have up on the site soon!) I’ve had men’s wear for weddings on my mind, so when I learned about the online shop The Grunion Run I was excited to see another great resource for fun men’s fashion. Based in L.A. and run by husband and wife team Kevin and Yun, The Grunion Run offer grooms and groomsmen “a convenient and affordable way to find unique, stylish, non-traditional groomsmen apparel that would be great both for and after the wedding.” If you’re looking for apparel or accessories for your groom or groomsmen, check out their website to see for yourself!
