I’m doing my best to try and feature a little bit more variety when it comes to real weddings on Once Wed, so when I recently saw this modern celebration on Paperwhites Photography site I couldn’t resist sending Darcy and Trina an email to see if they would be open to a feature. The bride, Camille, was also kind enough to send over some details from their wedding…
We got engaged in Paris earlier that year (2009), hence the French theme and we really wanted to have a wedding in the South of France, but it was not really a feasible option. The grounds at the hotel always reminded us of Provence, down to the petanque court, so The Parker, with its unique design and fun atmosphere, felt like a suitable choice. And of course, now we have a yearly excuse to go back.
Both our weddings rings were KFK jeweler, an antique jeweler on 3rd street Los Angeles. My weddings dress is Juan Carlos Obando and was custom made from Des Kohan.

Stay tuned for so much more coming up next!
You might have already seen this wedding recently here and here on Ruffled, but after seeing Jess and Mike’s wedding last week on Heather Waraksa’s blog I couldn’t resist posting it on Once Wed as well. I have such a soft spot for small and intimate weddings. There is just so much love and happiness beaming from the images below I knew it would be the perfect bit of inspiration for any couples out there considering eloping or a city hall wedding. Plus, how amazing is the bride’s vintage wedding dress and shoes?

The wonderfully talented Tec Petaja, recently sent in the beautiful wedding below and I’ve been waiting anxiously for the perfect time to share it with you. I don’t have very much information on their wedding, but what I do know is I absolutely love the elegant yet understated details incorporated throughout like burlap hanging over chiavari chairs, lovely white hydrangeas, and beautiful calligraphy gracing the tabletops….swoon! Plus, how can you resist a wedding with such a charming location and gorgeous couple?

When Josephine sent in her wedding recently, I knew it would be the perfect way to end the week on Once Wed. How could you resist a wedding where the bride wears not one but two beautiful vintage wedding dresses? Jo’s ceremony dress is a vintage dress from the 30’s and her reception dress belonged to her grandmother which she customized…

How much do you love the ribbon wands and round ceremony site Lisa Vorce created for the beautiful couple? There is something so fun and charming about giving your guests wands to wave at you as you both come down the aisle…
Thank you again to Elizabeth Messina for sending in this beautiful wedding. If you haven’t had a chance to check out her blog, Kiss the Groom, you absolutely should. It is filled with so much beauty and inspiration.
