Sweet Staci and I were besties from the first conversation and I loved being in touch with her through her year of planning – whether it was on Instagram, Pinterest or email. I was so excited to finally give her a hug and congratulate her on marrying her awesome hubby that I was twice as nervous as usual!
Just like I new it would be, it was of course a beautifully perfect day at Auberge Du Soleil. Nathan and I got started with his modeling career down in the olive grove while we anxiously waited for his stunning bride to arrive. When she did, I nearly did a back flip (if I could do a back flip that is!)! She was a knock out in her Tadashi Shoji dress from BHLDN and even more fabulous then I had imagined. Once they finished their first look, we went right into photos of the two of them showcasing their sweet love for each other. Before you knew it, it was time to go get them married!!
As usual, Auberge did an exceptional job setting up their intimate, boho vintage glam celebration of 10, complete with a personalized carafe that they would be blending wines into and delicate white petals perfectly placed on the aisle. Just when I thought their peach, mint green, and gold detailed wedding couldn’t get any better, I saw her bouquet and seriously couldn’t handle it! Tesoro Flowers outdid themselves, creating her exact vision of a wild, whimsical and romantic arrangement. GORG!!!!
Once Sarah got everyone ready for the ceremony to start, my heart was pounding with excitement and nerves. I managed to hold it together until Nathan couldn’t, and once his emotions bubbled over me, everyone else was a goner! Their words were so perfect, tender and loving. Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Drew! I could not be happier for you both and your fabulous families I was honored enough to get to know!
