I also wanted our wedding to be outdoors for guests to experience the great southern California summer weather. This inspired me to DIY a lot of small and subtle details (lace wrapped votive candles, vintage sheet music for the candles and rose petal cones, personalized water bottle labels, tissue paper pomanders, flower monograms, etc.). In the end I wanted our wedding to look simple yet elegant.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"romantic diy wedding at Villa del Sol dOro in Southern California, purple, eggplant, lavender wedding color palette, photos by Duke Photography\" alt=\"romantic diy wedding at Villa del Sol dOro in Southern California, purple, eggplant, lavender wedding color palette, photos by Duke Photography\" src=\"\/img\/whatjunebugloves\/june2010\/southern-california-wedding-villa-del-sol-doro-duke-photography-2.jpg\" border=\"0\"><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"traditional Korean wedding ceremony at Villa del Sol dOro in Southern California, photos by Duke Photography\" alt=\"traditional Korean wedding ceremony at Villa del Sol dOro in Southern California, photos by Duke Photography\" src=\"\/img\/whatjunebugloves\/june2010\/southern-california-wedding-villa-del-sol-doro-duke-photography-3.jpg\" border=\"0\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Looking back, what are the moments, decisions or memories that you love the most about your wedding?<\/b> <i> There are so many to name! Our favorite moments included our first look &ndash; it was nice to have a moment together before the ceremony and it calmed our nerves. It was also fun to see our loved ones feverishly wave the DIY streamers that my husband and I made. In fact, all our DIY stuff was worth it. I admit it got stressful sometimes making it, but to see everything on display at the wedding was very satisfying. Lastly, it was amazing to have all our friends and family come together to celebrate with us.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>Wedding color palette:<\/b><i> Shades of purple from eggplant to lavender, and cream.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"romantic diy wedding at Villa del Sol dOro in Southern California, purple, eggplant, lavender wedding color palette, photos by Duke Photography\" alt=\"romantic diy wedding at Villa del Sol dOro in Southern California, purple, eggplant, lavender wedding color palette, photos by Duke Photography\" src=\"\/img\/whatjunebugloves\/june2010\/southern-california-wedding-villa-del-sol-doro-duke-photography-4.jpg\" border=\"0\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Wedding Team:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Photography: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dukeimages.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Duke Photography <\/a><br>\nEvent Planner: Caroline Chang of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.serenityevents.com\" target=\"_blank\">Serenity Events<\/a><br>\nCeremony and Reception Venue: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sagardens.com\" target=\"_blank\">Villa del Sol dOro<\/a><br>\nOfficiant: Reverend Michael Lee<br>\nCaterer: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sagardens.com\" target=\"_blank\">Santa Anita Gardens Catering <\/a><br>\nFlorist: Kate Holt of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flowerwild.com\" target=\"_blank\">Flowerwild<\/a><br>\nWedding dress: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moniquelhuillier.com\" target=\"_blank\">Monique Lhuillier<\/a><br>\nBridal accessories: Pearl bracelet from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.Nordstrom.com\" target=\"_blank\">Nordstrom<\/a>, Majorica pearl drop earrings, hair flower made by Annie<br>\nBridesmaids apparel and accessories: Custom made from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.isisbridals.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Isis Bridal &amp;
