Featured on SMP | Stephanie and Sean’s Calistoga Ranch Wedding

We are so excited that Stephanie and Sean's gourgious wedding at Calistoga Ranch was featured on SMP.  Their fall wedding had that perfect California weather and all the color of the season. The venue is simply lovely with its vineyards, views and beautiful grounds. Stephanie and Sean had their ceremony in a candle-lit wine cave decorated with pumpkins and pampas grass. Their cocktail hour and dinner took place during sunset by the vineyards. 

Here's a little advice Stephanie shared with Style Me Pretty:  

"Another golden piece of advice I was given and would absolutely pass on is to budget for a videographer. My wedding planner told me this, and boy am I glad she did. Oftentimes, brides budget for flowers, music and photos. A videographer becomes a “nice to have,” not a “need to have.” We went with Grover Films. Our wedding day was so surreal and overwhelming that I think most brides would agree that when you’re in the moment, it’s easy to miss a lot of the details of your wedding. Sean and I were so relieved to have a video to watch long after it was all over. It was incredible to see everything again – to go back in time and relive those moments – and it’s a different experience than simply looking at photos."

We had the pleasure of being a part of this wedding from its infancy. Laurel contacted us before choosing anything else for her wedding! When we asked what inspired her, she said "I wand everything vintage, rustic, old-world, with lace and elegant simple florals". We quickly put her in touch with Danielle from Danielle Gillett Photography and APIS Florals and suggested she check out Nestldown. Well it was love at first sight and our amazing little team was born. 

Laurel and Matthew's wedding was truly gorgeous and it was such a pleasure to work along side such talented vendors to create something so unique and beautiful. If, like us, you just can't get enough of this darling couple then be sure to check out some of Danielle's stunning photographs below.

I loved getting to re-live Ana & David’s beautiful wedding full of city lights and family thanks to 7x7SF's recent feature. This was such a sweet couple to work with alongside Elena from Elena Graham Photography and I love that we’ve kept in touch with all of them ever since.

Ana's mom made the gorgeous arrangements for this wedding and after falling in love with creating the florals Ana and her mom now run Green Irene Flower Shop. You can see more details and highlights captured by the talented Elena over at the 7x7SF's feature here.
