REAL WEDDING: ERIN & DERICK:: AN ENCHANTING AND DREAMY DAY VALLEY, CALIFORNIA WEDDING
featured designer
your big day... wrapped into one word. some might struggle to pinpoint a single word, but not #aandbabe erin. erin’s answer was “MAGICAL” and by the looks of this enchanted forest wedding, we’d say she got just that. a whimsical woodland wedding day complete with a rich forest floor color palette and pops of emerald green. from chambray getting-ready shirts to a tortas food truck, this dreamy day valley, california wedding was quite the vision of a refined wedding ceremony and reception among the redwoods.
we couldn’t think of a better wedding dress to pair with the natural beauty that surrounded erin and derick during their intimate california wedding. ‘penny’ by made with love's strapless corset bodice provided structure, while the bridal gown’s fitted skirt and open illusion back was accented by soft lace embroidery. with hints of beaded vines and blossoms, made with love’s penny wedding dress appeared to grow among the leaf-covered ground.
not only was erin’s fitted illusion back wedding dress a statement, but so were her bridal accessories. from velvet lace-up bridal booties to a dramatic cathedral length veil, we loved every delicate detail. erin’s elegant side-swept hollywood waves bridal hairstyle and classic emerald stone drop earrings, added to her already ethereal bridal look.
placed directly in front of their rustic sweetheart table was a vintage round mirror with calligraphy that read, “i’ll follow wherever you stray”. and if that doesn’t make you want to roam the forest in a romantic wedding frenzy... well, we don’t know what will. congratulations, erin and derick. may you follow each other forever.
