This Bohemian Bodega Bay Wedding Had a Thrilling Cliffside Ceremony

March 6, 2018 | colleen

Ashley and Kevin’s intimate Bodega Bay wedding had the dreamiest cliffside first dance. These hippie, adventure-seeking, lovebirds opted for a small ceremony that is unlike anything they had seen before. Growing up landlocked, they knew they wanted a waterfront wedding, so these two road-tripped until they found the perfect spot! Ashley wore a stunning Lillian West wedding dress and Kevin looked dapper in his custom tailored suit. Their ceremony had custom DIY boho details, including a teepee arch that they stood in front of when becoming husband and wife. Lauren Dixon Photography captured every moment of Ashley and Kevin’s magical day.

Lauren made me feel really special and reminded me to smile and be myself. She got to work right away and I felt like I never needed to double check that she got a shot that I hoped for.

I guess you could call me a tree hugging hippie so I wanted to find a bohemian dress that fit the scene. The ethereal flower embroidery on my dress was exactly what I was looking for.

Kevin and I both come from land locked places (Germany and Minnesota) but both of us dreamed of an ocean wedding. Not a beach wedding, a cliff wedding. Bodega Bay was perfect. 

My friend who officiated is a yoga teacher and led a prayer connecting our love to the elements. We had a clear quartz “marriage crystal” I called it that everyone took turns holding to infuse their love into it.

A lot of people told us that a small wedding is the way to go… and they were right! We had a chance to talk to everyone who came for the ceremony which I’ve heard is rare at big weddings. Everyone felt really special to be a part of the intimate circle during the standing ceremony. People might be shocked you’re not having chairs or a “real reception” but if they are high vibe and joining you on your special day for the celebration of love, it doesn’t matter!

We went on a spontaneous weekend camping trip that started on the most northern part of the California coast and drove all the way down until we found our spot. The minute we found our cliff spot we knew it was the place!

Kevin and I are as free spirited as it gets, so I wanted it to be very ethereal and divine. We love traveling, festivals, surfing, yoga, crystals, nature, and close friends and family.

At the Picnic I wanted to make sure we all had a piece of our wedding cake which was a German raspberry cake Kevin’s mom made. She had brought ingredients with her from Germany so it was really special.

This Couple Nailed Their At-Home Photo Shoot With Plants, Pizza, and Tons of Cuddles

March 5, 2018 | colleen

Oksana and Ray’s at-home photo shoot has some major cozy vibes. These two invited Behind the Blush and Nicole Ashley Photography into their New York home to hang out and photograph them as they drank coffee and ate pizza – talk about goals! But as wonderful and dreamy their session sounds, the story of how these 4 met isn’t all rainbows and butterflies. Here’s a little insight from Nicole Ashley on how it all unfolded:

Janna and I met Oksana and Ray on October 1st, the night of the mass shooting in Vegas. While running, we found a hidden bathroom of a restaurant where we stayed in lockdown with them until the early hours of the morning. They were sweet, funny, and really helped to lighten the mood (as much as possible). We talked a little bit about ourselves and our lives to pass the time and exchanged social media contacts. I never thought I would see them again.

Fast forward to last month, Janna and I were hired to work in Brooklyn, New York, and on our day off, our schedules matched up and we got to spend time with Oksana and Ray. Ray recently proposed and the stars aligned for all of us to create something beautiful together.”
