I’m a total sucker for a casual, barn wedding. Maybe it’s because I had one of my own last year, but there’s just something so sweet and simple about the rustic backdrop and gorgeous fields that gets me every time. I’m loving the tablescapes filled with wildflowers, wine bottles for vases, votive candles and burlap runners. Oh, and those dishcloth looking napkins folded with menus inside fit the whole rustic decor perfectly.

This was exactly the case when I opened up this California wedding Jake Odening captured and sent our way. I was enamored by the beautiful bride, the apparent style in not just the girls...
