Santa Barbara wedding: Megan + Carver

October 3, 2012

We’re always fascinated to see how couples add decor elements that are based off their individual hobbies into their wedding. It has the potential to get a wee bit funky, real quick. Or it can look charming, if say, one of you (Megan) is passionately into letterpress moveable type and the other (Carver) is into vintage BMW hood emblems. But M + C made them work beautifully among centerpieces crawling with the prettiest of white and blush florals. Then there were the other details – letterpress invitations, hand stamped confetti bags… she even made koozies look pretty! Ok, just go on and take a gander.

A must-have detail were the lanterns, made by Toast. They copied pages from Megan’s great-grandmother’s journal and created these beautiful lanterns for the cocktail and reception area.
