Uyen and Steve in the Rain, Part 1

It poured rain all day and night when Uyen and Steve got married at Atwood Ranch in Glen Ellen back in October, but I have to say I have rarely seen anything more beautiful. The ceremony was set up in a tent nestled in the vineyard, with the grape vines dripping sparkly raindrops everywhere, and the soft sound of it… so nice! Their reception was held in the amazing barn on the property; I didn’t get good photos, but I’m hoping there will be lots to share later on. In the meantime, here’s a taste:

Uyen’s bridal bouquet, with late-season dahlias, smokebush, various aeonium and sempervivum rosettes, snowberries, nigella pods, and a few fun guinea hen feathers.

We used dramatic xerographica tillandsias for the pew bouquets, with some olive leaves (grew them ourselves!), more smokebush, figs, soft reindeer moss, and ivory dahlias for a little contrast.

The barn looked so gorgeous dressed up for the reception, with the dim rainy light floating in from outside… this is the table in progress. Hopefully I’ll be able to show you some better pics soon, since I didn’t get any good shots of the centerpieces.

Come down and see us for our Thanksgiving weekend open house event next week! Details coming soon in the newsletter.
