We had the pleasure to work with Lauren & Garrison at the Maravilla Gardens in May of this year. When we had our first initial meeting with the two of them they wanted to incorporate a southern country vintage look to their wedding.
To bring it all together we designed a one of a kind theme with the backdrop of the beautiful Camarillo Hills.
For the ceremony Lauren had personalized handkerchiefs with the same design as the front of her invitations. We placed them on a vintage door along with a framed chalkboard inviting the guests to take their pick.
Instead of a guest book we used a vintage mailbox placed on an antique desk with feather pens. The guests were asked to sign in on a vintage postcard and then place them into the mailbox.
At the reception guests found their escort cards nuzzled in vintage books that were hand wrapped in a peach/ivory satin ribbon and pined together with an antique broach.
We staged the bride and groom as if they were having dinner by the window in the country for their head table. With vintage French doors, hanging chandelier, old dresser, and some adorable frames this head table came together with a one of a kind flare.
Lauren and Garrison wanted a candy bar as a thank you to their guests. For this we laid out some antique books and used them for props to place vintage candy jars and candies on them. Some small candle holders that had a vintage feel to them were placed around the table.
