Wedding: Jen & Adam at Kohl Mansion

Jen and Adam had the sweetest wedding day celebration at Kohl Mansion. They got married on the lawn under crystal chandeliers representing their grandparents, and the reception was held in the courtyard lit up with strings of lights. Adrianna from Dream a Little Dream Events did an amazing job, and we were so impressed by how many of the details Jen did herself (she learned letterpress to do her own invitations and menus! how cool is that) We had a great time working with Caroline from Tinywater Photography. Check out her sneak peak of Jen & Adam's gorgeous photos on her blog!

Wedding: Mariel & George at Nestldown

Mariel and George are one of the most fun and adorable couples we have ever met, just full of life and love. They were married at beautiful Nestldown, under the shady redwoods. They did rock, paper & scissors during their ceremony to see who would say their vows first! Mariel infused their celebration with fun handmade School House details (she's a teacher). She made wedding day report cards, ad libs, and fortune tellers, and each table marker was a library book, with old school photos of themselves. Even milk and cookies were laid out as a bedtime snack. We got to work with Lindsey and Nathan of Bellalu Photography who always make the day fun! Amy Frugoli of Twitterpated Weddings did an amazing job, along with Kellye Clifford of Precious and Blooming, Sweet Tooth Confections who did the "bake sale" desserts, and the catering by Thomas John was amazing, one of our absolute favorites of the Bay Area.

"The Ancestor" animated music video by Darlingside

As some of you may know Pamela is also an artist and illustrator. She recently had a huge opportunity to help create an animated music video for the band Darlingside, with two friends Abe Dieckman who did the amazing animation, and Timothy Hahn, producer. She created the background paintings and textures, as well as many of the individual assets: trees, clouds, plants, stars, furniture etc. It turned out beautifully and the team is so proud to share it! It was just mentioned on Cartoon Brew, Everything Animated, Maimed and Tamed, and was a staff pick on Vimeo! We are trying to get the word out so please share it in as many ways as you can.

Wedding: Marisa and Brian at Manna Ranch

Marisa and Brian were married at her childhood home, Manna Ranch in Acampo, CA. Marisa is a talented wedding coordinator herself, owner of So Eventful and we know she had great time planning her own wedding. Their ceremony and reception was right on the front lawn beneath the trees, and Marisa transformed it into a complete party, with an ice bar, hanging chandeliers, even a runway where the bridal party was introduced. Their band at the reception, Savannah Jack was absolutely amazing!

Wedding: Michelle and Sebastien at Carmel Valley Ranch

Michelle and Sebastien were married at Carmel Valley Ranch. It could not have been a more beautiful day for a wedding. Sebastien who is from France, surprised Michelle during their vows with a song in French! They rode off to the reception in a horse drawn carriage (how romantic is that). Michelle and Sebastien incorporated many French themed elements into their celebration such as their patisserie dessert bar, a french circus mural, stilt walkers, and a variety of circus performers, even a Parisian sketch artist. A beautiful love filled night and a lovely couple! Coordinated by Colette Cuccia and her team who did an amazing job! Also thanks to Richard Grover from Grover Films for shooting with us.
