Our latest feature in Martha Stewart is getting us excited and ready for Summer to arrive! This July 2019 wedding was “a big party with all of our favorite people, amazing food, drinks, and music," Cait says. "All, of course, in a beautiful setting.” In our opinion, there’s nothing better! Can anyone else hear All Summer Long playing in your head?
The secluded location of the pond was key in this serene, light-hearted ceremony. Decor that was “gentle on the senses” created an “overgrown, organic, garden-party feeling” says planner Vanessa Noel of Vanessa Noel Events. We couldn’t have imagined a better pairing than Avenue Twelve’s wooden garden chairs with our pond as a backdrop!
Cait and Fletch could not have dreamed up a more perfect central coast day. “The weather was amazing, the music was exactly as we envisioned, and we enjoyed being in a little bubble together with all our friends and loved ones” said Cait about her big day. Idlewild Floral adorned the space with smokebush, foliage, and textural, airy florals contributing to the most romantic, yet relaxed atmosphere.
As guests made their way down to cocktail hour in the courtyard they were greeted with this GORGEOUS lounge where they sat and enjoyed cocktails, appetizers, and each other! For their reception space, Cait & Fletch had a new and innovative vision for the barn. Aiming for a more natural look, they opted for muslin draping with white washed and gray beaded chandeliers. The barn is truly a blank canvas for brides to play with and we must say, what Cait, Fletch, and Vanessa dreamed up has been one of our absolute favorites!
The perfect day turned into a magical evening which quickly gave way to dancing the night away! Every chair in the barn was empty as family and friends got down to the Lucky Devils Band. The best ending to the best day!
