Sand, Sunset & Vows

Jessica & Pete ~ October 19, 2013

Newport Beach, CA ~ Balboa Pier

Nothing says romance like the beach! Warm air, sand between your toes, waves crashing in the background, life going on around you, not a care in the world. What is better than that? Let me tell you....it's watching your own daughter marry the man that she loves. I was the proud mother-of-the-bride, wedding planner & florist for this amazing day. A day I will never forget.

Everything about this wedding was planned around the colors and mood of the beach. Glassware of mason jars were blues, greens and clear glass and flowers were of corrals and peaches. Sand and shells adorned the tables and each centerpiece. Toasting bottles of sparkling apple cider and strawberry lemonade was sipped through the striped straws in each glass.

An intimate ceremony consisted of a best man and a maid-of-honor surrounded by 40 family members and closest friends. The reception was a home-cooked meal made with love and the cake was a family recipe made by the bride's aunt. It was a family affair and a magical day.
