California Garden wedding | Photos by Birds of a Feather | 100 Layer Cake

Aside from being a 90% DIY wedding held at the stunning Secluded Garden Estate in Temecula, California, Alex + Emily wanted to host a wedding that was completely personal and would have guests commenting afterwards how much the wedding was “so them”. And that’s exactly what happened. By marrying (pun intended) and honoring their Chinese and Jewish traditions by having a tea ceremony, Hebrew vows, and the breaking of the glass, plus the help of lots of family & friends on deck, their wedding, captured fabulously by Rebecca of Birds of a Feather, was beautifully so them.

Modern Hammerpress wedding invitation | Photos by Cassandra Castaneda | 100 Layer Cake

There’s a way to add modern touches to your spring wedding decor so that it’s not just pastels and soft florals. We love how rak designss and emmy-ray utilized the modern architecture of contemporary wedding venue, River Market Event Place. The playful spring accents seen in the glittered fabrics, pops of color in the floral arrangements, invitations, and graphic prints alongside the concrete floors and metal accents illustrate the perfect way to style a modern spring wedding.

Mexico destination wedding | Photos by Cana Family | 100 Layer Cake

Don’t you hate it when couples make destination weddings look so easy? Just makes us want to get married all over again. If Liza + Paul can do it, planning it all the way from Sydney, Australia, than we’re pretty sure anyone can do it. You’ll need to enlist some help though. Their’s really couldn’t have been done without the amazing help of Signature Event Consulting & Design and the gorgeous photography of The Cana Family. There wedding was the perfect union between a Mexican fiesta and a Slim Aarons poolside photograph. Extremely romantic with lots of heart and soul, beautiful surroundings, lots of texture, flowers, asymmetry and some quirkiness thrown in and all with an air of ease.
