From the bride Olivia: We really wanted our wedding to include all things we love- garden venue, lots of colorful flowers & cacti, our closest friends and family, a coffee cart, a little 70's/boho vibe, and some of our favorite music playing all evening! The design of the wedding was inspired by the venue, which has a Spanish-style garden vibe, and our color palette included dark and light blues, peach, yellow, and accents of gold. We had these different colors incorporated throughout the floral arrangements, our invitations, my bridesmaids dresses, and the tabletop decor- basically lots of color anywhere we could! We decided to DIY our day-of signage and escort tiles, which was a fun project to work on leading up to the wedding, and brought some of my own potted plants & cacti to use in the decor which also added another personal element to the overall design. We absolutely love how our wedding turned out and how much it felt like "us", it was definitely our favorite day EVER!
