Julie & Creighton's Effortlessly Romantic Villa Montalvo Wedding

Villa Montalvo, Saratoga

I started working with Julie to plan and design her wedding approximately one month before her wedding date - her busy work schedule had kept her from having the time to freely plan her wedding until one month prior, and she was in desperate need of professional assistance. Within that month, we worked together to bring together design elements and a vendor team that would bring Julie’s vision for an elegant and romantic yet effortless celebration of their marriage at the historic Villa Montalvo. The result was an absolute dream!

Sarah & Josh's Elegant White Wedding at The San Francisco Mint

The San Francisco Mint

Sarah and Josh were one of the sweetest couples I have ever met, gifted with strength and beauty, and the most generous, loving spirits. They met in the military, and their relationship continued to grow despite frequent goodbyes and long distances. Sarah’s aesthetic is elegant, simple, and refined, which we strove to carry out throughout her wedding design. We felt a clean palette of whites, pale greys, and dusty blues would complement the weathered stone of The San Francisco Mint beautifully, and greenery was brought in to add an organic touch for their elegant white wedding.

Allied Arts Guild, Menlo Park

Who says that you can’t have a garden wedding in autumn? Sherry and Robert’s autumnal garden wedding certainly proves that wrong! Their wedding took place at Allied Arts Guild in Menlo Park, and their moody autumnal color palette accented the gardens perfectly. Sherry wanted to make sure their wedding design didn’t read too girly (her favorite color is black, but she felt that would be too dark for their wedding), so she chose to incorporate deep burgundies.
