kristen & todd

Weddings are made of thousands of tiny details and delicate touches. Here are some of our favorite moments from this forest wedding.

1» Hold Fern

Bridesmaids carried bouquets of calla lilies, green hydrangeas, ‘Juliet’ roses, Gloriosa lilies, dusty miller, lamb’s ears, and lady fern.

2» From the Redwood Forest

En route to the aisle, the bride strolled down a trail lined with twig nests and Redwood forest greenery.

3» Ham it Up

Guests were served hors d’oeuvres of jamón and peaches with goat cheese on baguettes.

4» Flowers Online

The toasted almond and banana chocolate cake was decorated with handmade, hand-painted fondant flowers and an abstract, linear design.

5» Pixie Dust

Guests sprinkled aromatic herbs of lavender, chamomile, and rosemary on the newlyweds as they recessed up the aisle.

6» Heirlooms and Blooms

Wrapped in antique lace and fastened with circa 1920s buttons, the bridal bouquet contained ‘Picasso’ and plum calla lilies, green hydrangea, and white roses, accented with maidenhair fern, lady fern, and sword fern.

7» A Nesting Place

Twig nests with green and lavender hydrangeas, roses, sword fern, and hanging amaranthus appeared on the aisle chairs and path to the ceremony.

8» Inside the Box

A moss-filled antique jewelry box holding the rings was passed around to guests for a ring blessing.

9» Pedals and Parasols

Shelter from the sun was provided in the form of parasols presented in a planter resembling a vintage bicycle.

10» Woodland Creatures

Flower girls were dressed as fairies and wore circlets with blush spray roses and mini Echeveria succulents.

11» Safe Arbor

The couple married beneath a wisteria arbor draped in pale green and cantaloupe-colored sheer organza and chiffon. Posts were decorated with ferns, Monstera leaves, hanging amaranthus, woody vines, and strands of crystal.
