A beach wedding and a green reception






Beach weddings set the right tone for a life together with the ocean's beauty, space and harmony, which, if all goes as planned, can't be destroyed by it's other side: the moments of rough, stormy and wild.


Julie and Michael, Topanga Beach, April 29, 2012






 

Julie created dried flower center pieces, the amazing lavender fragrance en wrapped the venue. 


She also made gorgeous wind chimes for each guest, which they could take from the trees on the way out.

Her seating cards were hung in a frame she found in the attic.

 


Julie and Michael offered their guests organic food and cake and had not only amazing fun at their reception they also glow with the knowledge that their green ways might even save a polar bears life.

The vintage art of embroidery






The vintage art of embroidery fits perfectly into the down to earth creativity of contemporary weddings. Trishia and Justin chose a cartoony Racoon, which even appeared in the grooms wedding ring.
Great pics by Jody Miller Photography.
