Wedding at St. Monica’s Catholic Church & Craft Restaurant, Santa Monica, CA

We are so thrilled to finally get to share the truly joyful wedding of Valerie & Michael…we have been looking forward to it for ages! Not only do we totally adore these two, but we knew we were gonna get some good eatin’! And, if you know us, you know we love to EAT! The sweet & emotional ceremony was at the stunning St. Monica’s Church and the reception was at the delicious Craft restaurant. Valerie & Michael wanted to make sure that their guests had a proper, family-style Craft meal and saved most of the traditional reception events until after dinner so that everyone could enjoy their meal uninterrupted. And once everyone’s bellies were full, the party began! The day was so intimate & warm and everyone had an absolute blast. Also, can I please say: Best. Vendor. Meal. EVER!

We’re also super excited to have this amazing wedding featured today over on one of our most favorite blogs, Style Me Pretty. Valerie got tons of inspiration from SMP & used a lot of their Little Black Book Vendors (us included!). So, check out some of our favorite images below and also click on over to Style Me Pretty to see lots more of her pretty details!
