Heather and Travis’ antique-inspired DIY wedding is nothing but fabulous details (all done by them! ) at the ever-beautiful Dawn Ranch Lodge in Guerneville, CA.
“Our wedding is rustic, shabby-chic, and Anthropologie inspired…Our main decor themes include books, birdcages and ribbons.” We couldn’t wait to meet these stylish Santa Rosa natives and capture their wedding; especially since we harbor a not-so-secret love of all things even remotely inspired by Anthropologie! There are so many small details that make this day special, and the yummy lighting that accompanied their big day was nothing short of miraculous!
The bride and groom readied their respective vows while getting ready in Santa Rosa, with a little last-minute approval from the mother of the groom! I’m sure Travis didn’t need any help expressing his feelings for his gorgeous fiance!
Heather opted to keep her jewelry simple and classic. The pearls add a bit of that fabulous antique charm!
We loved ogling those wonderful bridesmaid’s dresses! They fit so perfectly into the color palate of the day, and looked amazing on all the girls.
The light lace detail and simple shape of Heather’s wedding dress were a sophisticated nod to her theme.
A beautiful pop of coral showed up on the bride’s shoes! A picture of Heather’s mother was always nearby the ceremony to watch over the day.
These beautiful blooms were courtesy of a family friend, Kate Crigler. She did a wonderful job with all the pale pink and cream flowers that gave this day a definite something special!
Heather takes her vow-writing seriously! We love when vows are spur-of-the-moment and completely heartfelt.
Heather had the most wonderful bridemaids! Not only were they all beautiful, but you could tell they were there 100% for Heather on her wedding day.
What wouldn’t make this girl look more beautiful? These pale, flushed tones were perfect for Heather’s pale skin and classic features.
Last-minute accessories! That engagement ring is super-gorgeous!
There’s nothing quite as beautiful as a glowing bride!
Heather and her bridesmaid share a moment together before the ceremony begins – sometimes the most important thing on your wedding day is stepping back to appreciate the people who are there to support you!
All I can say is: lovely!!
We loved the time we had to capture some magical moments before the day’s events started; Dawn Ranch Lodge has such beautiful grounds to take advantage of!
Can you believe there is so much more in store? The thought Heather and Travis put into their DIY details is off the hook! We’ll have more of this amazing wedding to show you in the next few days!
