Lauren and Mike wanted to replicate the feel of an old drying shed that they once came across while driving through the Québec countryside, so their florist hung hand-dried flowers— including tea and garden roses, larkspur, coxcomb, hydrangea, delphinium, and nigella pods— fro ...

Mike and I share a love of all things cheese, so a lot of thought went into the cheese table! We handpicked the cheeses, from a bell-shaped French goat cheese called Clochette to a lavender-bud-and-coffee-rubbed creation called Barely Buzzed. Our corner cheese shop helped us pick playful pairings, such as the Old Rasputin Stout shots seen here. For ...

Our getaway car was a 1930s Ford Model A. Sadly, the engine wouldn’t start, but we had fun taking pictures in it!

Lauren & Mike in Paso Robles, CA

Lauren and Mike met when they were both undergrads at Dartmouth where he was a linebacker she was on the figure skating team. Mike proposed on the dunes while the couple was on a weekend getaway in Cape Cod.

The Bride: Lauren Morgan, 29, freelance editor
The Groom: Mike Whitticom, 27, investment associate
The Date: September 2011

Lauren and Mike planned the wedding i just a few months, and since Mike's job brought the couple to San Francisco not long after the engagement they decided to have a West Coast wedding. During the planning process, Lauren and Mike were inspired by romantic pastoral toiles, which their wedding planner was able to incorporate throughout the wedding day.
