Time for another client spotlight! I got a call from a fun-loving couple last July who were looking for a custom version of my State Silhouette ketubah. They had been dating long distance (New Jersey to California, no less) and wanted to celebrate where they came from and where they were going. They also had the most amazing palette of wedding colors – a vibrant poppy red-orange and classic navy – so I knew I had to incorporate that into their finished piece.
The happy couple married last November in Napa, and last week they sent me some photos of their stunning ceremony and reception. I’m obsessed with everything about this wedding – the venue, the dress, the flowers, the photography, and especially the look on the groom’s face when he sees his bride for the first time (see below!). Their photographer, Megan Reeves, along with Jen and Jared, were kind enough to let me feature a few of their beautiful photographs here on my blog. Enjoy!
As you know, I’m always on the lookout for beautiful wedding quotes that aren’t overly used (and aren’t overly cheesy). And let me tell you…they are hard to find. But every once in a while, I stumble upon one that is the perfect blend of poetry and simplicity. I’m tucking this one away for the next time a client asks me for a timeless quote to include on their ketubah. I think it’s going to be my new favorite.
The quote comes from a poem by Pablo Neruda, one of my all-time favorite writers.
Actually, I loved the quote so much, that I whipped up a little computer desktop background. You can download it here if you’d like it on your own computer!
Thank you to Nick Diama for permission to use his beautiful photo!
