Kayla and Patrick’s Northern California wedding was a photographer’s dream! Nestled in the middle of the forest in Grass Valley, CA, the historic Empire Mine hosted the most beautiful backdrop for their ceremony and handmade reception. I was so honored that Kayla and Pat would fly us up to Sacramento to photograph their big day; these two are such a perfect match! Kayla worked hard to include so many personal, DIY touches throughout their wedding day, and the bridal party was styled to a T. Kayla and Pat- you guys are super cute together, super beautiful, and a super good time! :) I wish you all the best in your married lives. :)

What color are those bridesmaid dresses ivory or beige?
Hey Nicole- Unfortunately, I think they are neither! The bride said they discontinued that color- a bummer because it’s my favorite! :/
Such a beautiful wedding :) congratulations!
Who catered the reception?
Do you happen to know where they rented the wooden folding chairs from?
Hey Molly! The chairs are from Celebrations Party Rentals in Roseville. Hope that helps! :)
Wonderful, Thanks!!
