Happy Monday, everyone! I hope your week is off to a lovely start~ I had a great weekend — we saw the fruition of a fun and quirky wedding at the Huron Substation and I can’t wait to share it with you soon. This week I’ll be prepping for my next (3rd!) July wedding: a bright and modern Indian wedding in Orange County.

Today I have another lovely May wedding for you, courtesy of the always sweet Sarah K. Chen. Sarah’s photos have such a beautiful softness and elegance to them; her images are truly timeless. As Sarah mentioned on her blog, Danielle and Eric’s wedding day was full of emotions. Danielle lost her mother at a young age and honored her in numerous ways throughout the day, including using part of her mom’s veil to wrap her bouquet. She also surprised Eric by walking up the aisle to “Mama’s Song” by Carrie Underwood… a SERIOUS tear-jerker. I was so moved by the love and joy that day — Danielle and Eric have a beautiful story and they are perfectly suited for one another. I LOVED getting to know this pair throughout the planning process and could not have asked for kinder clients. I know we will share friendship for years to come — Danielle and I already had lunch together last week!! 😉

Enjoy these photos of their beautiful wedding (at Rancho Las Lomas, one of my favorite Orange County venues), which leaned toward a very clean, fresh look with a palette of pure white, platinum and cobalt blue.

i loved the swooping arcs danielle + eric integrated in their wedding stationery (by bella figura), so we brought them into the ceremony design using flowing curves of dendrobium orchid strands set against a platinum satin backdrop for contrast.
