From Julie MikosClifford and Vivian created a “simple, intimate and fun” affair, according to the bride, who married her groom on May 7 at Carmel Valley Ranch. “We found Carmel Valley Ranch almost by chance,” Vivian said. “We stayed there on a whim to celebrate our engagement and loved it so much that we decided to get married there!”

The bride carried “lush peonies, delicate anemones, lisianthus and open garden roses,” Vivian said, while decorating the reception space with “the architectural simplicity of calla lilies, spring tulips and gerrondos.” Vivian said, ” We especially loved the intimacy of our ceremony, our vows, the wonderful food, the (almost endless) drinks, and just being around our closest friends and family.”

Special details from their day included custom-made bridesmaids dresses, late-night servings of chocolate chip cookies and milk, specialty cocktails for both men and women, and favors made of serve-yourself Sour Patch Kids and Gummi Bears.
