Kenny + Molly, a Dazzling La Posada de Santa Fe Wedding

Los Angeles babes Kenny and Molly had the most wildly beautiful wedding in Santa Fe last fall, but we’ve gotten to celebrate with these cuties a handful of times before their special day. These sweethearts brought all the romance and all the incredibly fun details to the most unforgettable day around.

Kenny and Molly first met many moons ago in Colorado through work and after about a year of long-distance love, Molly made the move to Los Angeles, where Kenny was living, and these two have been an absolutely inseparable power couple ever since. A few years down the road, they added their sweet fur baby, Mika, to their family and have been traveling all over the world together ever since.

Even though these two initially celebrate their marriage back in 2020 with a tiny gathering at a family property, we’ve been lucky enough to know them since way back in 2018 when we first met them while capturing one of their best friends’ wedding! Since then, Molly has become one of our Instagram besties and we just knew that hers and Kenny’s wedding was going to be a show stopper. From their chic, yet extremely cool wedding style (just peep those matching sneakers) to the invitation suite that Kenny himself designed to their gorgeous al fresco reception to having not just ping pong, but a Mrs Pac Man arcade game for their guests, Molly and Kenny sure as heck showed us how to PARTY.

We’re deeply obsessed with these lovers and all the light they bring to the world, cheers to the Barela Wedding Party!!!

Spring Wedding Style

As warmer weather approaches us and flowers begin to bloom, we can't wait for all of the seriously gorgeous spring weddings to come in the next few months! This year we wanted to take a look back at some of our all time favorite spring weddings and to give all of our future brides out there some really amazing ideas!

Our friends at The Black Tux not only offer some pretty amazing suit and tuxedo rentals for weddings, but they also gave us some major color palette inspiration! Check out the three beautiful weddings below and the tips we have for each idea!

Wedding #1: Shawna + Derek
These lovers had the epitome of pastels for their special day. From gorgeous, flowy bridesmaid dresses to dark navy suits paired with subtle green ties, this wedding combined the best of both modern and traditional wedding ideas. Also, how amazing was that floral bedecked swing?!

Wedding #2:  Keith + Claire
In this wedding, the bride and groom had a totally different take on a traditional spring wedding. Instead of using only light pastels, they combined deep reds and bright pops of fuchia with lush green tones and soft pinks. The groom wore a simple, yet classic black tux while the bride opted for a stunning blush toned gown.

Wedding #3: Joaquin + Alexandra
Our final wedding in this spring style blog focused on subtle neutrals for a clean, elegant vibe. The groomsmen wore  deep navy suits paired with soft grey ties and the bridesmaids wore varying natural shades to put on modern spin on this classic wedding.  The bride chose a lavish white gown and it was truly the cherry on top!
