Weddings bring friends and family members together for memorable celebrations, and Alina & Dominikus’ wedding was no exception.  Loved ones traveled to Mendocino from Russia, Germany and Atlanta for their ring and branch ceremony… it was such a unique tradition and we love how it was a nod to both of their hometowns (read more about the ceremony below!)

This wedding is full of fall rustic goodness! Alina and Dominkus envisioned an elegant-meets-hippie theme with just a touch of nature.  So down to earth and so amazing!

Special thanks to Deborah Huber for the beautiful photos!

Be Prepared to Be Inspired…

How cute is her faux fur shrug?! So luxurious!

“Alina and Dominkus had family members bring branches from their hometowns (one from Germany and one from Atlanta), which they bound together with a ribbon. Each guest wrapped the ribbon around the branches and silently thought of a blessing for the couple. After the wedding the guest signed heart shaped ornaments and hung them on the branches.” – Deborah

The couple gave out homemade granola packaged in cute jars as favors!

How gorgeous is this light and fragrant table setting?! We love how each table had designated herbs!

Fruit + figs… YUM!!
