Sydnee + Sam are total rockstars who wanted their big day to be artful, reflective of the two of them, and different than any wedding that had already been held at their gorgeous venue, The Villa in San Juan Capistrano, California. They decided on a woodsy-forest theme, with a focus on animals to pay homage to their beloved critter tattoos. While we love it all, we're pretty much dying over the beautiful florals by Floral Occasions (Stacy Fitts from Floral Occasions is Sydnee's mom!) and Sydnee's crazy-pretty pink WTOO Olivia Gown! And wait until you see the sweet bunting + garland combo that served as their ceremony backdrop. Too cute!

Big thanks to Troy Grover Photographers for the beautiful photography + congratulations to Sydnee + Sam on an amazing day!

So love how the bridesmaid's rich, burgundy dresses juxtapose beautifully with Sydnee's pale-hued ensemble.
