Vintage California Wedding

Real Weddings

I know I say this a lot, but I am just so so so excited about today’s wedding on Once Wed. I’ve been admittedly stalking Erin’s beautiful blog for months in anticipation of her wedding, so when the lovely images below from Corbin Gurkin landed in my inbox I knew had to clear out my day on Monday to share their lovely wedding with you. Erin is an interior designer by day and paper genius by night, so you can imagine she knows how to throw one incredible party. Plus, Erin and Chuck are completely head over heels in love with each other which is what this wonderful day is all about, right?

Don’t you absolutely love her gorgeous flowers from Amy Osaba? Erin found Amy through Once Wed(yay!) and I am so glad she found a way for Amy to design the flowers for their wedding at the Dana Powers House.

Thank you so much Emily for featuring our wedding. I am such a huge fan of your blog so I am beyond exited right now! xoxo

Just to answer a few questions:

The little girls dresses were from J. Crew and the bridesmaid shoes are from all over the place – Nine West, Steve Madden, Guess. Berry hues are a hot color this season so you should be able to find lots of options.

Erin and Chuck are the most genuine and sweetest couple I have ever met. They seriously deserved a gorgeous wedding and they got it! Corbin did a great job of recreating the magic that was swirling around this wedding all day.

Where are the bridesmaid dresses from? They’re beautiful! I’ve been looking all over for purple dresses; all the dresses this season seem to be more wine-y than true purple.

The bridesmaid dresses are from Anthropologie and we made the floral sashes to match. I don’t think they are available anymore though.

My husband gave me the bracelet as a gift before our wedding day (I knew I married him for a reason- amazing taste). He got it at J Crew ad it is fabulous. I wear it all the time!
