Together for 10 years, John and Stephanie decided they weren't interested all the planning that comes with planning a full-on wedding and decided instead on an intimate elopement. The artistic duo created a day that was bursting with thoughtful, symbolic details: many of which were handmade and completely unique to their relationship.
After a quiet morning getting ready at home (where Stephanie made their floral pieces from clippings from their own garden!) they set off to a favorite spot in the redwoods, where a mobile tintype studio was waiting for them! Their ceremony included touching personal vows and a weaving they plan to hang in their home.
After making it official on their own, John and Steph joined their family for dinner, followed by a 1920s-themed reception with their friends at a favorite music-school-turned-bar, Tupper and Reed.
