Styled California Wedding with Pumpkins!

You are in for a treat today with this gorgeously styled California wedding shot by Denise Bovee! Lindsay works at Nordstrom doing displays and Erik works for Pixar, so it was only natural that this creative couple did all of their wedding decor themselves (with the help of some talented friends).

Michelle of Mia Bella Weddings coordinated the day and John Park assisted Denise as the second shooter.

We are so in love with Lindsay’s attire, especially that stunning necklace! Good choice.

The gorgeous bridal party: each of the bridesmaids had a different colored dress, and the guys had fabric boutonnieres to match. So cute!

    Very nice color palette, especially on the bridesmaid dresses. The wine barrels and typewriter were some of my favorite decor choices. Although, I was expecting some animations with him working at Pixar. 🙂
