For today’s breathtaking nuptials, the bride was able to call upon her floral designer mother, Carla Kayes Floral Design to help bring her wedding dreams to life! An enchanted garden was created for the ceremony, at the Temecula Creek Inn, made up of lush greenery and beautiful blooms as the bride and groom said their I Do’s. As guests made their way to the reception, they were greeted with a stunning setup, including table settings made up of family heirlooms and handwritten notecards by Plume Photography. Check out all of Bryan N. Miller Photography’s gorgeous photos of the elegant details and the overflowing amount of love!
From Carla Kayes Floral Design…Carla Kayes’ breathtaking floral work has been featured on Style Me Pretty, so when it came time to crafting a wedding day for her daughter, it was sure to be what floral dreams are made of. In the lush greenery of the dreamy Stone House at Temecula Creek Inn, Carla and her bride-to-be daughter Taylor were inspired by hues of dusty blues, pastel silvers and creamy whites. Taylor and Jonathan’s wedding day was designed with classic details in mind, from the beautiful hand-lettered invitation suites to the lush floral installations.
Taylor was elegantly dressed in a Monique Lhuillier wedding gown with french blue Valentino heels. Alongside her, the bridesmaids wore complimenting white gowns paired with soft bouquets of fresh garden roses grown from local farms. Jonathan and his groomsmen dressed in classic black tuxedo paired with black bow ties.
For the ceremony Carla and Taylor wanted to create an enchanted garden among the oak trees, lining the ceremony aisle with lush greenery, white and blue delphinium, hydrangea and lisianthus. Then placing a large statement arch to create a romantic backdrop for exchanging vows.
From the Bride…For the reception, my mom and I wanted to use our silverplate flatware that is a sentimental family heirloom. We searched eBay and Etsy for a year, buying additional place settings so we had enough for 110. My mom divided it into 3 large sets so that my sister and I could each have one after the wedding.
I also wanted my guests to be greeted with music as beautiful as the florals that surrounded them, so a string quartet played music as guests arrived and throughout the ceremony. Jonathan and I also wanted each guest to remember how important they are to us, so with Plume Calligraphy, we designed personalized note cards that were placed atop each place setting.
