Classic elegance and earthy charm came together in the most beautiful ways in Cammie and Tom’s wedding at Quail Ranch! The dreaminess of the California backdrop was enhanced with a dusty blue palette that complemented the natural tones of the venue perfectly and brought an airy, summery feel to the entire design executed by the planning team from Harmony Creative Studio. From the nods to their respective religious traditions during the ceremony to the odes to their travels with the reception seating chart, every detail of Cammie and Tom’s day felt unique and heartfelt. Sarah Linda Photography could not have captured it all more beautifully!

The Wedding:

Quail Ranch, Simi Valley, California

From our venue to our photographer to our wedding planner, it was important for us to surround ourselves with vendors who would help inspire a wedding that was uniquely ours. We loved the idea of having a venue with a big open space, with lots of greenery, where we could design our perfect day exactly as we imagined. 

My favorite part of the day was our ceremony. Although it was short, it was an intimate time that felt like the rest of the world was standing still. I loved hearing my husband’s vows that he so thoughtfully wrote. Just as much, I treasured sharing my vows with him and declaring our love for each other in front of all the most important people in our lives.

My husband and I are different religions and wanted to incorporate aspects of both of our backgrounds into our ceremony. We felt it would be meaningful to have each of our brothers read a passage representing our religious backgrounds. It was also really important for us to find a special way to incorporate our wedding party at our ceremony. One of my husband’s childhood best friends designed a wedding program (and all our paper products) for us highlighting our bridesmaids and groomsmen. Designing the program was also a really great way to include people outside of our wedding party in our planning process.

My husband and I love traveling together and thought it would be fun if each table represented a city where we’ve traveled. To let our guests know where they were sitting, we had a large world map pointing to places where we’ve traveled. My dad made stands with a picture of my husband and me in that city that we displayed next to the map. It was a really cool way to add a personal touch to our reception!
