We had so much fun designing and planning Tyler & Joliz’s Red Barn Ranch wedding in Hopland, CA!

As with many people, the first wedding I ever planned was my own. I married my husband in July 2014 at Golden Gate Park’s Shakespeare Garden and had our reception at Terra Gallery. It was one of the most JOYFUL days of my life.
