The Party After the Elopement
Our couple had a city hall wedding and a year later, their family and friends convinced them a party was in order. Their two night wedding celebration was all about quality time with friends and family, enjoying good food, and having fun. We followed suit with florals that matched their energy —simple, but cool.

Night One
Gott’s Roadside
Night one was a laid back dinner at Gott’s Roadside—burgers, onion rings, sundaes. It was the perfect way to welcome family and friends to Northern California, especially the international ones. We played with condiment themed styling in addition to playful, classic flowers. Think pickling cucumbers and old coca cola bottles as bud vases.
Night Two
The Charter Oak
The official wedding party on night two was across the street at The Charter Oak, where the food is always the star of the show. Simple vignettes of late summer wildflowers were the perfect finishing touch to a tablescape of shared family style platters. Inside, organic arrangements scaled to the massive bar and intimate lounge seating.
