Jessie & Dylan – California Scientists Boho Chic Watercolor Wedding
When we started working with Jessica, we were so excited to get to know her better because we already had her as a bridesmaid in her sister’s wedding a few years prior!

We wanted to create some beautiful acrylic pieces for all the...

Right before leaving for the church, one of the bridesmaid’s zipper broke. Our esteemed assistant Lauren ran up to their room and hand sewed her...
