One of my favorite Sacramento weddings of the year was Mindy + Matt’s Italian inspired wedding which took place at Young’s Vineyard in Plymouth, California this Summer. It was also just recently featured on weddingchannel.com!
Catriona Arcularius of Arcularius Events helped Mindy + Matt plan their wedding, and no detail was left untouched! From sandals for their guests to lounge in, to sparklers to finish off the evening…. the attention to detail didn’t go unnoticed. { I just LOVE it when brides really shine their personality through from start to finish!! }
Mindy’s colors were cornflower blue paired with peach. The wedding ceremony featured a burlap lined aisle with brown cones filled with flowers. Guests enjoyed cocktails amongst wine barrels, mason jars filled with flowers and specialty drinks focused on Italia!
The reception took place under an open air tent { my favorite new spin on the traditional tent} accented with long king’s tables topped with burlap runners. Table numbers featured Italian cities, custom created by the bride herself. It was the perfect touch! Centerpieces in wooden wine crates were filled with peach blossoms as well as blue flowers. Flowers used included: peach roses, peach stock, dahlias, delphinium, jasmine vine for a bit of fragrance and hydrangeas. We added a variety of greenery to add to the outdoor-rustic feel. The centerpieces were tied together with smilax vine lined with votive filled mason jars.
Mindy’s bouquet was created with peach garden roses, tuberose to add a tinge of peach color, green helleborus {so gorgeous!}, calcynia, freesia and a brooch from Mindy’s family.
Guests enjoyed great wine, a cool evening from the warm day, tunes from Joe with Extreme Productions DJ’s and a star filled sky! Congratulations Mindy + Matt!
