Finally, we're getting around to posting our wedding pictures! These were taken by our friends Aaron Morris and Maurico Arias of Chrisman Studios. We had the pleasure of having them stay with us for a couple days during the week long festivities. We hoped they would have fun and feel like our wedding guests because that's how we thought of them (You know, those wedding guests who constantly make you kiss in front of them). But they seriously worked their butts off. We saw them EVERYWHERE, like ninja monkeys, in all sorts of contorted body positions, constantly, for something like 15 hours! We are forever grateful for the moments they captured and all the pain and heat they endured. We love the photos and they make us laugh all the time.

Moments after my friend and favorite cake maker in the world stuffed a spatula of frosting in my mouth.

We made our guests follow these two lovely voices (Tiny home) over a short hiking trail.

Here it may look like we are mourning the loss of a loved one, but really we're so happy we're trying not to weep.

I also can't express enough how grateful that Anna and Michelle of Events of Love and Splendor were able to coordinate everything. They made Jerry and my day worry free and knew exactly what to do with minimal input from us. Our wedding took place in the serious boonies- it couldn't have happened without their help.

We decided that we should handmake mugs for every guest and vendor at our wedding. This is one of those ideas that start off sounding really great and fun, but then, as we're hand crafting mug #26 out of 140, slowly the icy realization comes that we will be making mugs almost every day for the next 9 months. Some days it felt like we were workers in a 3rd world sweatshop. But I don't regret it at all, now that it's over and my mind has partially blocked out the memory.

Inspirations that helped create the vibe of your wedding?

We wanted a wine country get-away feel that was elegant but not fussy and that would encourage our guests to mingle for the weekend.

Sitting with every table during dinner and being able to spend quality time with each guest; Dancing with our parents.

DIY elements: We made the escort cards, and non-floral decorations, quilt squares. The most fun to make were probably the escort cards. We enjoyed spending the time together hand-making all of those paper roses and assembled the leaves, stems, and "vases". The most rewarding was making the quilt as a keepsake. Everyone who attended the wedding wrote a message on a fabric square.

Advice that you’d give to other Brides? Our day-of wedding coordinator was amazing and I couldn't imagine doing without one. We had less than 70 guests and this allowed us to splurge on food and weekend festivities that everyone would enjoy. Having a smaller wedding also allowed us to visit with everyone and enjoy their company throughout the weekend. If you are custom-designing any stationary, proof-read everything and double check fonts carefully!
