Flowers & whimsy galore at this forest wedding in Sebastopol #Real Weddings: Western US#bearded groom#california#flower crown#forest#short hair December 19 2017 | Catherine Clark bijouxandbits Photos by: Rachel Bausch Photography Photos by Rachel Bausch Photography Claire and Eric's are super talented people who DIYed the hell out of their lovely forest wedding in Sebastopol. Eric harnessed his graphic design skills and they crafted whimsical brass animals, floating paper cranes, HUGE paper flowers (a favorite!), and paper crowns for all the guests, UK-style. Nominee for most adorable moment: instead of a first dance, the couple serenaded their guests with "I Can't Help Falling In Love With You," returning to their college show choir roots where they first met. You've got to see this flower-filled wedding that shows off this couple's serious DIY skills… Vendors Photography: Rachel Bausch Photography • Reception Venue: Redwood Hill Gardens Gallery This slideshow requires JavaScript.
