Honest-To-Goodness Real Wedding: Joelle and Chris
Some days, (we hate to admit) we get in a bit of a rush and one very special wedding slips by, only to be re-discovered months later. Case in point … Chris and Joelle’s charming, charming wedding day, sent to us by our great Little Black Book member, Jessamyn Harris.
Joelle and Chris were married in Aptos, California, at the adorable Valencia Community Hall. Theirs was a hands-on, DIY affair that resulted in a true Style-Me-Pretty-Proud Day!
I love to be greeted by a single stem in a special vase at each place setting. Always a warm and welcoming gesture.
Isn’t Joelle just radiant? And her dress soooo beautiful? The brilliant flowers … LOVE ‘em!
Seriously cute pumpkins all-in-a-row. And I kind of want to know what’s in the adorable favor boxes.
Joelle and Chris make me smile.
What a perfect, perfect wedding. Seriously.
Congratulations Joelle & Chris. Your day was filled with true warmth, love and “specialness”!
Thank-you, Jessamyn for sharing your fabulous photos with us.

I just wanted to note that Joelle and Chris had a lot of DIY elements - they arranged their own flowers, silkscreened the vases, made and put up the decorations in the hall, and even silkscreened cute little favor bags for the kids that attended the wedding!
They also had a Dean Martin impersonator for an additional unique touch :)
Where are the vases from? I love them!
The vases are from CB2. Chris and I designed the image and had a stamp made, then stamped our wedding date onto each one using "glass paint" that we found at the local craft store.
I had the honor of attending Joelle and Chris's wedding-it was truly a magical day! The site, the venue and all of the spaces were amazing. Joelle has true passion for detail and her wedding so reflected her love for color, texture and art.
The day was so beautiful and romantic.
This was a great event and so fun to see it highlighted!
The vases are absolutely brilliant! Great job :)
Where did you get stamps customized?
We have used Simon Stamp for several custom stamps. We haven't had a problem yet with them, and they are pretty prompt on getting your order to you.

What kind of flowers are in the centerpiece? I love them.
Are those marigolds?
i think they're are dahlias! i'm getting married in a dahlia garden - did you use the dahlia in any other way? i always need new ideas...your wedding was GORGEOUS!
