First wedding of the 2010 wedding season

Saturday’s wedding took place at the delightful La Provence in Roseville, Ca.  I love this venue for so many reasons.  The food is super yummy, the staff is always friendly and the grounds are impeccable.  It is perfect for a smaller wedding.  My bride this past weekend loves the beach.  So there were small nods to the beach in the decor.

I think it should be a rule that if you get married in the spring you have to carry peonies in your bouquet.  Love them!

I loved the little crystalized star fish the bride gave me to put in all the bouquets.  They were gorgeous!

The ring bearers carried shells filled with flowers down the aisle.  I absolutely fell in love with this idea.

Just a simple touch of color on the aisle chairs is all you need.
