Guest Blogger: Sasha from Sparkliatti, Part 2

Sometimes it’s okay not to take your wedding too seriously…a case in point is Deanna & Julian.

Don’t get me wrong, they wanted their wedding to be stylish and beautiful but they wanted to have a great time doing it. Having a mostly artistic crowd for their wedding, they chose a vineyard with amazing views in the Russian River area of the Northern California Wine Country.

But what Deanna did that was different than most brides is that she made sure
she had an amazing, fun experience that day in addition to providing her guests with the same. Deanna loved being in her wedding gown and her images reflect the fun she had romping around in the vineyards.

Further, we created a photo op wall with frames & wallpaper which was similar to the damask printed table linens. This photo op wall was staffed by a dedicated photographer and the guests (and vendors) had a super fun time in the wall taking images. What I loved most about that wall was that it actually looked like the wall of your house with family photos hung in a variety of frames – but it was alive with the guests from the wedding. So fun.


Everything about the wedding reflected the mix of the vintage glamorous with rustic. By utilizing different shapes in the bouquets, flower girl kissing ball and centerpieces we were able to keep it interesting. They also chose not to serve cake but instead do a variety of pies including the groom’s favorite, Concord Grape pie.

Thank you to Sasha for sharing these beautiful weddings with us! And if you haven't already, you should definitely stop by Sasha Souza Events and Sparkliatti for more gorgeous and creative inspiration!

Wow! I can't get enough of that picture frame wall. It's so hard to come up with new ideas for unique photography moments. It plays off the decor and creates such a fun experience for the guests (and great memories for later!). Kudos to Sasha and Anna!

The last photo is the jr. bridesmaids and it's a kissing ball made from a lambs ear type leaf material...simply glued onto the sphere with a pin of amaranth at the bottom. Glad you liked it!
