DIY California Japanese cultural wedding: Summer + Herbert

We fell in love with Summer’s wedding way before she admitted that she had spent hours looking at Amanda + Tim’s wedding for inspiration (she wins brownie points for that). They had the necessities already in place: open bar, good music and lots of desserts. They just needed the details. Fortunately and unfortunately, Summer was up to… Continue reading DIY California Japanese cultural wedding: Summer + Herbert
