It isn’t very often that we come across an indoor, modern wedding that stops us in our tracks, makes our hearts beat a little faster and really, has our undivided attention at hello. Well this Santa Monica gem is just that. A blissful combo of pink peonies, cherry blossoms and clean, modern decor all orchestrated by Picture Perfect Events. And speaking of picture perfect, the images by Desi Baytan Photography? Beyond beautiful and so worthy of a few le swoons. See more of the day here!

From Desi Baytan Photography…This was a modern Santa Monica wedding with a touch of tradition details. Nancy and Ron’s wedding took place at the famous Casa Del Mar Santa Monica. With cherry blossoms for centerpieces, Nancy’s Japanese theme continued throughout the wedding decor from cake to invitations. Soft pink colors meld perfectly with the neutral colored table linens of gray satin. For the reception, I love the use of rectangular tables which gives a sense of gathering while a few round tables to break up the pattern. Nancy’s bouquet of pink and white peonies was by Gilly Flowers and made Nancy’s portraits stand out. Kelley Gin of Picture Perfect Events orchestrated this lovely detail inspired wedding.
