Our Bride and Groom say a short goodbye as guests take their seats outdoors for the ceremony.

Like we said, nothing short of spectacular!

Their union was overflowing with stunning details, from the stylish blend of dark and light shades to the vibrant pops of violet. Jayme appeared to be in a world of bliss as she shared her devotion to Austin. As the two made their way up the aisle as husband and wife, Austin pulled Jayme in for another kiss while family and friends shared the joy of this beautiful moment.

Onto the details! With ample signage in dark royal blue from Monstera Gold and menus from Berries & Blooms Studio, it was the perfect accent of color for this Tuscan-inspired villa. Fantasy Sound Event Services & The Flower House stolel the show again by draping the reception windows and double staircase. Pleasanton Rentals brought home the gold with their dazzling tablescapes.

Before the party started, Jayme and Austin went off to catch a glimpse of the setting sun. The soft sky and gorgeous hills fit right into our couple’s wedding palette. Such sweet moments were shared in their first few hours as newlyweds.

Time for a slice! Le Gateau Elegant provided a stunningly detailed cake that tasted as good as it looked. After Jayme and Austin shared a bite, they shared a dance with their parents before the dance floor opened.
