Darlington House Elopement// Alyson + Anthony

Got the Monday blues, well this Colorful elopement
is sure to make you smile. 
Elopements have a special place in our hearts. 
Sweet, romantic, and full of a single all      
encompassing love known to fill the hearts of those saying." I do." 

On a beautiful Spring day at the Darlington House in La Jolla, 

I collaborated with some fanastic vendors to 
create a bright and cheery elopement. 

Anthony and Alyson just excude joy! 
We accented this joy with colorful blooms of magenta 
and peach, geometic ceremony backdrop draped with florals, 
cozy after ceremony celebration picnic and a perfect little cake with 
Oscar De La Renta inspired edible print (how cool!). 

Alyson glowed in the stunning Jenny Packman gown from the Dress Theory. 

The hand beading added such a lovely feminine detail. 

Hair and Make-up was inspired by the 1920's with cascading waves and bold lip

really added a wow factor to Alyson's look. 

Calligraphy from Shasta Bell in gold brought out a bit of whimsy 

with the "Love in Bloom" theme. 

We kept the gold accent going with the pillows and geometric 
designs throughout the space. 

Overall, sweeping arch ways of the historic Darlington House 

and lush greenery enabled the 

designs of our vendors to really shine. Anthony and 

Alyson enjoyed every moment and truly fell more in love 

after this special elopement.
