Celebrating Same-Sex Weddings in NY



As mentioned yesterday, we're taking this week to celebrate the legality of same-sex weddings in New York State.

These photos are from a wedding we did a couple of years ago at Ventana Inn in Big Sur, California. Margo and Dawn got married during the short period of time here in California during which same-sex weddings were legal. Their wedding was a beautiful celebration of their family, as they had already adopted two gorgeous little boys together.

Hope you enjoy these photos by Thayer Allyson Gowdy.

Sonoma Eco-Friendly Wedding by AE

Check out our most recent wedding that was published on Style Me Pretty.


















Abbey and John tied the knot this past summer at Annadel Estate Winery in Sonoma, California. They celebrated their vows with a Buddhist inspired ceremony in the property’s nineteenth century ruins, then cocktailed in the oak lined grove, and dined on the sprawling green lawn, under the shade of scattered market umbrellas.

The wedding revolved around an appropriate theme of longevity, so all of the decor was designed to incorporate everlasting floral elements, such as billy balls, manzanita, succulents and scabiosa. Sustainability was also a key feature of the wedding. The table numbers were named after potted herbs, which guests took home at the end of the night, along with the succulents that were strewn throughout. Guests were encouraged to find a way to replant or repurpose all of the floral elements.

Children were not only present, but involved throughout the wedding day and had an absolute blast. The two dapper young ring bearers walked down the aisle with fishing poles that had the rings tied onto the lures, following three lovely flower girls toting baskets full of flowers. They later joined the rest of the kids for dinner picnic style, sitting atop pillows in the grass. John took a particular interest in the design of the paper materials, while Abbey focused on the rest of the decor. Their joint love of food and wine made the catering choice a fun one. John visits Kitchenette (run by Living Room Events) in San Francisco daily for lunch, so hiring Living Room Events to cater was a no-brainer.

Cool Couple Alert


We say it all the time and don't mean to continue bragging, but we are so, so very lucky to have the most interesting, inspiring, well rounded, adventurous people surrounding us, that we call our clients. Laura and Dustin are no exception. This couple got married in a small, private ceremony last year, then embarked on a trip around the world together. By the end of their trip, they will have been gone for 365 days and visited twenty countries. And you thought your honeymoon was cool.

We're looking forward to their safe return at the end of the month, followed by a big welcome home and wedding reception for their friends and family that we'll be cooking up this summer. In the meantime, we thought you too might enjoy reading about this witty couple's travels and oohing and aahing over some of their pretty pictures.
