Written by Cassie Allinger | Oct 24, 2020 1:48:00 AM

We love seeing how our venues transform each time they host an event, adapting to take on the style, story and character of the theme of the event. In the story of Jamie and Cody's wedding day, they brought a unique sense of light, joy and romance to the space that we absolutely adore. The color palette was communicated almost exclusively through florals: white and light pink roses, light greenery, and blue-green succulentsand it couldn't have been more magical. Join us as we commemorate this absolutely splendid wedding at the gorgeous The Carlsbad Windmill in North County, San Diego.

wedding vows

Everything about this happy couple screams class and elegance, and the ceremony did too! Jamie's father walked her down the aisle and kissed her cheek before taking his seat. The stunning modern cathedral with dramatic white drapery served as the perfect backdrop for simple heartfelt vows that brought everyone to tears. As an extra special touch, Cody's uncle officiated the ceremony and he did such a wonderful job!

THE bridal party

Cody and Jaime each chose a close confidant to stand by their side on their special day. The bridal party helped to ensure the bride and groom were focused on nothing but their love on this special day. They were an absolute joy to work with!

Jamie's stunning bouquet was designed by an incredibly talented family friend who did an incredible job throughout the event. The florals carried through the entire event from ceremony to a decadent display at the sweetheart table and dessert table.
