The groom painted the dress at this abstract art-inspired vow renewal
Magdalena and Preston had an abstract art-inspired vow renewal on a rooftop in the Arts District of downtown LA. The inspiration for all of the wedding design (the dress, floral arrangements, invitation suite, tablescapes, and cake) was based on one of Preston’s abstract paintings. Our favorite part? Preston hand-painted Magdalena’s tea-length dress, too!
Come see this rainy day turn sunny just in time for their lovely rooftop vow renewal…
