One of the many things we wanted for our wedding is to pay attention to the details. From our cake toppers (bobble heads custom designed to look like us), the custom logo for our wedding that was found all throughout the stationary and at the reception, to the wedding newspaper custom designed detailing information about the bridal party, events, trivia to put in our out of town bags (40% of our guests were from out of town). We pushed the envelope to delight the senses of our guests, from the cigar bar, candy buffet, wine tasting bar, champagne and chocolates as favors, as well as shawls that were provided for guests due to the outdoor evening reception. On top of having a wedding website, we also put together a wedding planning blog detailing all the adventures from getting our wedding license, picking out the sites to our custom inviations.
On the day of our wedding, rain drizzled the streets and everything was so crisp. By the time we got to the church, I dashed into the Chapel to avoid a bit of the rain. Once the ceremony was over, we walked out as husband and wife and the clouds parted. Between the ceremony and the reception, the bridal party took photos at CSU Channel Islands. The reception cocktail hour started at 4pm and within the hour, a rainbow appeared. Dinner was amazing! DJ’s Catering took care of every last detail. The evening was filled with dancing under the stars, amazing wine, and lots of laughter!
