Upon arrival, guests (all wearing earth tones), were immersed in the
natural beauty of the redwoods and the incredible, fairy tale-inspired
floral designs that decorated the site. "e floral goodness throughout
the wedding enhanced the woodland fairy tale theme, including the
personalized 14-foot chuppah decorated with fresh ferns, amaranthus,
hops vines, gardenias, tuberose, clematis, spray roses, and more," Sacks
explains. With five inches of rose petals covering the wedding aisle and
an array of fresh ferns, vines, and flowers throughout, the ceremony was
rustic, magical, and unquestionably unique.
In an unforgettable departure, the bride—looking like a true princess in
her flowing veil and mermaid-style Galia Lahav gown—took off on a white
stallion. Guests were in awe as she made her ethereal exit, and the sense
of magic and whimsy increased as the reception grew near. On their way
to an oversized, vintage barn, guests stopped to sign a guest book that sat
atop a table in the center of a Labyrinth. A symbol of love and of the soul's
journey, the Labyrinth was comprised of thousands of spiraling candles,
setting a tone of love, reflection, and spirituality. A scene Sacks describes as
"almost cinematic."
During the reception, guests dined within the vintage atmosphere of a
rustic barn, but the celebration never lost its whimsical feel. As the sun set,
candles illuminated the venue, draped in greenery and flowers, and the
Labyrinth burned brightly outside. Dinner was served for an extraordinary
couple and their guests–just the beginning of a lifelong fairy tale.
