Free-Spirited Seaside Bali Wedding at Pandawa Cliff Estate

November 4, 2019 | Junebug Weddings

Free-spirited babes Kristen and David are making our boho Bali wedding dreams come true with their inspiring day at Pandawa Cliff Estate. The couple’s goal was to make it a fun week for all of their friends, and with the help of Hitch’d Wedding and Events they did just that! If you’ve ever dreamed of creative entertainment ideas for your big day, these two had more than we’ve ever seen — including on-site tattoos by Bali Famous Ink. We can’t wait for you to see how Sunnie Heers Photography captured every splendid Sandat Floral arrangement, Kristen’s Rue De Seine gown and handmade earrings, and even more from this absolutely incredible day at Pandawa Cliff Estate!

Wedding planning advice from the bride and groom: Get a planner. Hands down the best investment we made for our wedding. The seamless planning, styling and coordination process was worth every cent – zero stress meant we had the whole day to focus on each other and soak in the incredible day. Not only did our planners, Hitch’d Weddings & Events, organize our entire wedding from start to finish, they also coordinated Kristen‘s Mexican Fiesta themed bridal shower (complete with Sangria bar, photo wall, Mexican picnic & DIY sombrero making) and our Recovery Party the next day (with guest tattoo station, lounge bean bags, pool toys, mimosa bar, food platters & custom engraved coconuts). They had everything so seamlessly coordinated every step of the way, that not for a moment did we have to worry about lifting a finger. The designs they put together were breathtaking, and Kira (our planner) was an absolute magician!

From the beginning our aim was for a relaxed and truly personalized ceremony. We opted for cocktail-style seating in lieu of your traditional rows of chairs, to make everyone feel a part of the action. The procession song was kept a surprise from David, so the moment it started to play was a real tear jerker.

We are both avid tattoo fans, so we opted for something a little more permanent than an exchange of rings – instead exchanging tattoo stencils of each others initials! Which were soon after made permanent. Overall the ceremony was a true reflection of everything that we as a couple hold dear, and was filled with personality and laughs from start to finish.

Made and the team at Sandat Floral do the most incredible, original and modern arrangements that we’ve ever seen! Their passion and ability to source the florals from all over the world and get them to Bali to create absolute masterpieces simply blew us away!

Sunnie flew over all the way from Colorado USA to capture our day for us! She spent the week with us and our friends and we didn’t want her to leave by the end of her trip! She made everyone feel so comfortable and the outcome was pure magic!

In lieu of a cake we opted for a piñata instead! We took it in turns to take a hit (being careful not to take each other out in the process), at which point we handed it over to the bridal party and the rest of the guests! The end result was an outpouring of mini bottles of our favorite shots!

Modern Romantic Karma Vineyards Wedding in Shades of Blue

November 3, 2019 | Junebug Weddings

When Rechelle and Erik were planning their Karma Vineyards wedding, they couldn’t think of a better theme than modern romance — and we totally agree! The bride a.k.a. Sea of Sanctuary planned the vision for her romantic day, and Lauren Neely Photography captured every moment of it perfectly. The girls were dressed in hues of blue from Lulu’s, which looked fabulous next to Rechelle’s feminine Made With Love Bridal gown. Just wait until you see the pampas grass and greenery goodness floral designer Wandering Blooms created! If you’re into phenomenal views and simple elegance, you will absolutely swoon over these two’s Karma Vineyards wedding day!

The Couple:

Rechelle & Erik

The Wedding:

Karma Vineyards, Chelan, Washington

I loved my dress, I knew I wanted something lace but not a traditional lace, I wore Riley Luxe by Made With Love Bridal and had a cathedral length veil. For my makeup look, I went with a rose gold eye but everything else was pretty natural but just done a little heavier.

When planning our wedding the two most important things to us were photography and videography. We heard so many times that the day flies by, which it does, and we wanted to be able to look back on our special day and have as many images and videos as possible to remember and see for the first time.

The most memorable part of our day was a tie between our first look and the moment I walked down the aisle. Our first look was just Erik and I and it melted away all the jitters I had all morning. Walking down the aisle was equally as memorable because that was the first time I got to see all our family and friends and knowing they were there to celebrate and support us was so special.

Erik and I both grew up coming to Chelan so we knew we wanted to get married there. Karma Vineyards is known for its views and food so it was an easy choice.

We absolutely love Lauren, we knew from the moment we met her that we had to have her as our photographer. She really knows how to make you feel super comfortable and essentially like family. She knew when to let us have a break, she kept us on schedule and even took extra photos that guests asked for.

Our wedding colors were shades of blue, gold and white. Our favorite color is blue so it was something easy for both of us to agree on and blue is a classic color. White, gold and green to add a touch of romance.

This Tropical Glam Old San Juan Wedding Inspiration Took Cues from the Vibrant Puerto Rican City

November 2, 2019 | Junebug Weddings

Give us all the tropical glam vibes, please! Nikk Nguyen Photo and Soiree By Karen put a glamorous twist on this Old San Juan wedding styled shoot with bohemian-inspired chairs and lots of texture to create a romantic, yet fun-loving vibe that only Puerto Rico can deliver. Floral designer Natalia Liriano utilized a color palette of coral, magenta, and light pink in the floral explosion on the couples’ sweetheart table — and we are obsessed with it! And, if you’re into fashion, you’ll absolutely love how chic this bride looks in Novias Otilio Santiago and the most on-trend hat for the scene. If you’ve been dreaming of an Old San Juan wedding or all things “tropluance,” this one is for you!

Karen designed every aspect of this wedding perfectly and displayed the tropical theme like no other. Capturing the essence of the island in a true love story came naturally.

Puerto Rico never fails to give you culture, tradition, colors, wonderful scenarios and of course, amazing people. I’ve been taking annual trips to Puerto Rico to visit the island, but I haven’t been here since hurricane Maria. We decided to do something special here and orchestrate this styled shoot to show off the beauty of the island.

Every corner in Old San Juan brought inspiration! This is truly a creative mind’s playground, which was perfectly paired with a bohemian style vision and a romance that sweeps through the streets of the city.
