A gorgeous, outdoor wedding filled with DIY elements is the inspiration for today’s real wedding feature! Danielle and Ben’s nature inspired DIY wedding at the stunning Park Winters venue in Winters, CA is getting us excited for spring time weddings. From the photographer: Family was the focal point of Danielle and Ben’s wedding day. Not only was celebrating their marriage with their family and closest friends a big priority for the couple, but the theme of family touched almost every element of their wedding day from their vendors to their decor. Thanks to Vivo Photography for sharing this nature inspired DIY wedding in Park Winters with us!
“Danielle and Ben found themselves facing the same challenges that many 2020 couples have been facing due to COVID-19 and all that comes with it, including a wedding date change, and a last minute venue cancellation. But, instead of postponing the wedding for a year or settling for a small family ceremony, Danielle persevered until she found a new venue that she absolutely loved, Park Winters.” – Vivo Photography
“Danielle described every aspect of her wedding as a blessing, especially her vendors. Her floral designer and videographer were actually family friends She said that she felt like “most if not all the vendors we used were either people we LOVED that we had just met or people that were part of our tribe and that made it even more special to have people helping us that knew us”.” – Vivo Photography
“One of the most special moments of the day was Danielle’s first look with her Dad because of the strong bond that the two share. It was a beautiful moment for the two of them to spend together right before he walked her down the aisle to her future husband.” – Vivo Photography
“Danielle loves design and wanted to do a lot of the details on her own. She incorporated meaningful items from their lives into beautiful DIY decor. She crafted their welcome sign from old windows from a family member and constructed their seating chart from old cabinet doors from her family’s home.” – Vivo Photography
“The wedding was just full of sweet moments between the couple and those that were closest to them. From Danielle getting ready with her mom to her dance with her new husband and then with her dad, love and joy just radiated from their faces!” – Vivo Photography
Danielle’s best advice for future brides is “Don’t give up. It’s not easy planning a wedding, but don’t settle for something that is truly a day that you will remember. Seek help and ask advice.”
