FEATURED REAL WEDDING // Amelia and Steven met as five-year-olds—and nearly two decades later, they said “I do” at a private bayside estate surrounded by family, cowboy hats, and deep ranching roots on both sides. ✨
,
When rain rolled in just before the ceremony, their loved ones (and vendors!) turned into an impromptu setup crew, and Steven’s cousins serenaded Amelia’s entrance with “Hallelujah” on piano. Later, guests branded a redwood slab alongside the couple’s own custom family brand, and dueling pianos took the reception into overdrive. 🤠🌾
We’re thrilled to share Amelia & Steven’s love story, featured in the Summer/Fall 2026 issue of Real Weddings.

We’re kinda jumping the gun, but we couldn’t help ourselves…we teased this submitted styled shoot in print in the upcoming Summer/Fall 2026 issue of Real Weddings but we just couldn’t wait to share more—now here’s your full dose of eye candy! 🍰💐
This shoot is giving us ALL the feels: soft blues, lavender, blush, and pops of citrus color woven through every detail. And that cake (you know how much we love love love fun, colorful, and whimsical cakes!) 😍 A three-tier blush beauty by Jesuit Nugas Wedding Cakes with hand-painted florals and real dragon fruit at the base. It would almost be too beautiful to eat…almost.
