Gift finding, to me, always seems harder than it should be. As someone who was once a bride herself, I can honestly say that wedding day gifts were that much more of a puzzle to me. I overthought the entire process, adding stress onto an already all-consuming event. When we teamed up with Movado and Kay Jewelers it dawned on me how much more blissful I could have made my life. The gift of time is something every single person needs, loves and will always cherish.

Its no secret loft spaces are some of my favorite locales. Between the sky high ceilings, the panoramic windows that pour light in and the uniquely cool blank spaces they provide, they are repeat couple favorites. A team of locale LA wedding vendors felt similarly inspired, turning the warehouse space of FD Photo Studio into a bohemian garden loft wedding oasis. Working with such a lovely clean space to start, the team took the opportunity to craft an ultra inviting boho chic lounge area. Bold, wild floral arrangements were brought in to infuse the space with a garden feel, bringing a soft warmness to the loft wedding. Perhaps my favorite piece to the overall wedding design however, is the color palette. A refreshing combination of cream, peach and copper, the palette is practically a love song to the often neglected orange family of hues. The rest is an exercise in minimalist wedding perfection. A simple and wonderfully sleek slip wedding dress paired with gently tossed tresses. No need for big flashy pieces, the quiet beauty to this boho loft wedding is literally everything.
