An idyllic spring wedding on the farm

April 28, 2015

April means almost all of this year’s babies are on the farm. There is fresh spring milk and warm damp ricotta. The first roses and iris are in full bloom, yet the huge carmine tea tree in our secret garden is still dropping pink petals. It’s a lovely backdrop for spring weddings.

Bay Area stylist Karolynne Meyer designed this romantic archway for last Saturday’s wedding on the farm. Karolynne uses the farm gardens, and her local sources, including her own huge and gorgeous garden, to make a poignantly beautiful altar.
