{wedding pick} tara and ryker’s los angeles wedding
“Love is a fire that feeds our life. – Pablo Neruda
It’s the day after Valentine’s Day, but I’m still smitten with pink, red, and hearts. So this week’s wedding pick is Kate Spade heart themed from Green Wedding Shoes.
I love these invitations! They’re simple, creative, and totally cute. Of course, everything looks better with hearts!
Instead of the traditional flower boutonnieres, the groom and the groomsmen all wore sequin heart pins.
The first look – so precious! They are just the sweetest couple. The way Tara looks at Ryker makes my heart melt! And how perfect that this moment was Tara’s most memorable moment of the day? Even the rain couldn’t stop these lovers from being happily in each other’s arms during their big day!
Michele M. Waite did such a wonderful job capturing their special day. So many of these photos are, what I like to call, “Tumblr famous” photos.
Tara is just so stunning! As I’m going through the photos, my eyes always drift over to her!
I love that her bridesmaids held onto heart shaped balloons instead of bouquets! Such a sweet idea, since their theme was hearts related.
Can I just say how much I love the red and pink centerpieces against the glittery gold table cloth?
This is the first time I’ve seen an Instagram-like seating assignment.. and what a brilliant idea it is! Tara look pictures from facebook of her guests, Instagram-ed them. After writing the names and table assignments, she glued on heart magnets so they would stick on the magnetic boards. The guests could take home their pictures as a little keepsake after the wedding. Adorable or not?
Opting out on the traditional wedding cake, the couple decided to use doughnuts from a hole-in-the-wall doughnut shop instead. It was cheap, and the guests loved it! I’m telling you.. this doughnut trend will be big!
From beautiful photography, to Instagram-like seating assignments, to delicious doughnuts.. what’s not to love about hearts, Valentine’s day, and love!?
















I’m obsessed with this couple AND their wedding. How cute are they nuzzled together under the umbrellas. Darling.
What a cute wedding! I adore the valentines theme..! Beautiful photos. -beth
