Did you catch the weddings we shared here on le blog yesterday? (Scroll down our homepage if you need a refresh!) Continuing the roll of *most amazing modern ceremony designs* that we’re on right now, we’ve got Gabby + Tri’s rustic California nuptials at the ever-magical Greengate Ranch & Vineyards. With a locale as beautiful as San Luis Obispo, these two were all about complementing their surroundings. Shoutout to LVL Weddings & Events + photog Jenn Emerling on all the beauty below!

This Liancarlo dress is too pretty with those garden roses, blushing bride protea, ranunculus, and foliage.

Gabby tells it, We loved that we could stay on the property with our families for the whole weekend. That was really important to us to be together as much as possible. We also loved that it was near the beach, Tri got to get in a surf the morning of the wedding and we are beach bums at heart. The whole venue being outdoors and in nature was just perfect for us.

We wanted our wedding to be super outdoorsy with all neutral and natural colors found on earth. That’s us in a nutshell. Tri is from Hawaii so we had to bring some of that style to California with the Meili leis and other greenery. See her Pinterest inspiration here!

Gabby is a big DIYer, but things got too busy to do as many creative projects as she wanted. Luckily, there was time for these sweet succulent favors and table numbers.

And our bride’s #1 planning tip… I recommend giving yourself a hard deadline to have everything done at least a full week or two before the wedding. It was so much better being stressed two weeks before and then having the time to really be in the present and with family the whole week leading up to it.
