Eclectic Santa Margarita Ranch Wedding: Sheila + Nathaniel
Eclectic Santa Margarita Ranch Wedding: Sheila + Nathaniel
via
Sheila + Nathaniel's gorgeous Santa Margarita Ranch wedding proves that it is, indeed, possible to fuse modern + eclectic details with a rustic, natural location + vibe. Metallic bridesmaid dresses, whimsical gold pineapples decorating the tables, and an overall eclectic tone somehow fit seamlessly into the classic barn setting. Since we're always big fans of juxtaposing styles, let's hear more about how they did it, making the setting a fun reflection of the two of them:
It was important for us to pick things that we liked and made us happy - that was our theme. Choosing Santa Margarita Ranch afforded us the unique opportunity to plan and design our wedding on a blank canvas. We both have creative backgrounds, so we would come home with ideas for different to-do items. Our one rule was no one idea or theme would overshadow another. Everything was meant to compliment us, our beautiful surroundings, AND make us smile.Thanks a bunch to Katie Shuler Photography for the pretty photos and congrats to S + N on a lovely day!
Would you believe us if we told you Sheila found her Carmen Marc Valvo dress on Ebay? It's not a place we'd have thought to look, but pretty genius, right?! We're absolutely loving it - and the bridesmaids' gold Adrianna Papell dresses as well!
Love that they exchanged their vows standing on a gorgeous Moroccan wedding blanket! Get the look with one of these pretty finds below:
We're obsessed with these dreamy portraits Katie captured of the newlyweds!
