Real Wedding: Crystal + Jacob

This bohemian garden inspired wedding at San Ysidro Ranch made for a picture perfect celebration. Crystal Chin and Jacob Schmidt wanted to incorporate decor and design that was inspired from nature's beauty, with lush ferns, greenery, rustic wood accents and bright blooms. We had a blast creating these gorgeous arrangements and especially loved designing their wedding arch that enveloped the couple in nature and was inclusive to the surrounding landscape. We were thrilled to have their beautiful day and gorgeous details featured on The Knot. Take a peek below for some summer soiree inspiration!
