Rachel & Brent - Santa Fe Springs, CA. Rachel and Brent knew that they wanted an outdoor wedding and a relaxed day surrounded by their family, friends and lots of love.
They wanted their wedding day to reflect who they are, their style and personalities and as Brent proposed to Rachel in an antique store they wanted they wedding day to have an element of antique to it! This is what they did. They decided the main colors should be yellow, gray and hints of teal in a beaming, happy theme composed of quant little love birds, zingy lemons and elegant vintage all wrapped up in a rustic flavor with lots of color. The couple say they had lots of fun going to all the antique stores collecting the décor for the venue and tables.
All tables got covered with old lace tablecloths, with different dessert plates and forks from the 70′s. Happy 6th Birthday! Tonight we are having family dinner to celebrate my niece's birthday...
