mariah & johnathan
This is a peek into my own special day with my husband, Johnathan. I designed our wedding suite and day-of decor to complement the atmosphere of the venue. We got married in the backyard of a historic home in a tiny town near San Francisco, CA. Think tall redwoods, a big wooden deck, and twinkly lights. It was absolutely perfect for us.

We have a cat named Achilles who we love just a little too much.
