Vintage California Wedding III

Real Weddings

I love all the little bits and pieces of shimmer Erin incorporated into the  details at the reception. From the mercury glass vases to the wall of gold mirrors, it is just enough sparkle to give the whole celebration a sense of glamor without being too much…

Another wonderful blogger, Emilia Jane, baked all the cupcakes and was the day of coordinator…

I haven’t seen someone so thoroughly rock the short puffy veil in a long time. She’s glowing!

What is hanging from the wagon wheels, I love it and would like to steal the idea for my upcoming barn wedding :)

Thanks!

Really inspiring me for my barn wedding as well! Emily, is the barn floor they’re using finished or no? I’m struggling with what to do with mine. My parents farm has two barns with unfinished red-clay/dirt floors. Are my guests going to be ok with that or is there an inexpensive way to dress them up?

I am the owner of the barn where Erin and Chuck had their darling wedding. To answer the questions asked. I made the chandeliers out of wagon wheels that were on our property. They have mason jars hanging from them with twinkle lights to illuminate.
Our floors are decomposed granite. We wet it down and go over it with a vibrator before each wedding. Hope that helps.

I used the same thank you card verbiage at my place settings as well. So much sweeter and more personal than a normal favor in my opinion. Bailey…if you like, I can email you the file.

All I can say is “wow!!!”

11/17/09 at 2:36 pm

Oh my goodness, I absolutely love the simple floral arrangements, and of course those adorable cupcakes!

11/17/09 at 5:39 pm

This makes me want to get married again with more of a vintage setting! A truly beautiful wedding.

I was hoping to have the file emailed to me as well, I’ve seen those thank notes in the past on another wedding blog–but they are so impossible to read from the photos…my email is purplegorillaahh[at]hotmail.com thank u! gorgeous wedding!

Where did the cupcake stand come from? or was it made with glass tiers and martini glasses? This wedding was gorgeous! Awesome details!
