A Northern California Wedding













I wonder what it's like to be a person who knows exactly what he/she wants, has visions of what showcases their style and taste and goes after it, to be so sure of oneself that the answers are simply, well, obvious. One girl comes to mind.....CHRISTA!

My wonderful and much cherished friend, Christa, had her wedding in northern California and I must say, IT WAS SPECTACULAR! Her ideas for what she wanted seemed to come with such confidence and personal flare that done any other way would have been just wrong.

To any of you planning a wedding and looking for ideas, please take note of this wedding celebrations charm - each detail was duly noted by the guests and set Christa and Daniel's wedding apart from all the others that donned the guests calendar over the last decade.....and that's the goal, right?

Making use of the ceremony pieces at the reception is a wonderful idea so keep that in mind when creating the tone. Some glitz in the arrangements, that you may not notice in daylight, will sparkle when the lights go down later in the evening....especially with all the candles lit!

The fans on each chair for the ceremony carried the same style that was found in the formal wedding invitation. Continuity is a great way to show harmony in the planning and keeps your guests noticing all the special details since they become accustomed to the color palette you so carefully selected.

Traditional cake tops are just boring, just my opinion, of course. Christa chose to go with a sparkly "R" to grace the top of her amazing cake. What a great way to celebrate the newly shared name!

Christa and Daniels celebration was charming and graceful, just as the location called for. It possessed the personality everyone expected from such a creative girl. So remember...let your inner style shine!!
