A Relaxed, Woodland-Inspired Wedding at Wedgewood Events|| Sierra La Verne, CA
Some weddings are about grandeur and tradition, while others capture the pure essence of love in a relaxed, intimate setting. S and J’s wedding at Wedgewood Events in Sierra La Verne, CA, was the perfect example of a celebration focused on love, family, and the beauty of togetherness. With no formal wedding party and a vibe that leaned toward laid-back simplicity, this day was all about their connection and the joy of being surrounded by loved ones.
S and J’s wedding day started with a beautiful first look in a quiet, green space at the venue. J, who designed and made her own wedding cape, looked radiant, and S’s reaction was everything you’d hope for—pure, unfiltered love and awe. Their first look captured exactly what they wanted: their love for each other, surrounded by the beauty of nature.
The Sierra La Verne venue provided a stunning backdrop with its lush greenery and mountain views, perfectly complementing the couple's woodland theme. In J’s own words, they envisioned a “minimal, low-key wedding with a relaxed atmosphere,” and that’s exactly how the day unfolded. The couple shared laughs, a few tears, and genuine moments of connection, all while embracing their unique vision of a wedding day free of unnecessary frills.
The ceremony was intimate and filled with love, set against a backdrop of natural beauty. S and J stood together, exchanging vows surrounded by close friends and family. With no wedding party, the focus remained solely on the two of them and the promises they made to each other. The venue’s gorgeous landscape, with its lush greenery and slightly woodland aesthetic, added to the sense of calm and connection.
As a Corona, CA wedding photographer, moments like these are a dream to capture. The couple’s relaxed approach made everything feel genuine and heartfelt, and the photos from the ceremony reflect that beautiful simplicity.
After the ceremony, the celebration continued with a low-key reception at the Wedgewood Events venue. S and J’s family and friends gathered for an evening filled with laughter, good food, and dancing. The couple prioritized spending quality time with their loved ones over traditional wedding customs, and it made the reception feel like one big, joyful family gathering.
The woodland-inspired theme carried through with lush greenery and natural decor, adding to the cozy, welcoming atmosphere. The bride’s handmade dress was a standout detail, embodying the couple's commitment to a personalized and meaningful day.
S and J’s wedding is a beautiful reminder that love doesn’t need elaborate details to shine. Their relaxed, nature-inspired celebration at Sierra La Verne was all about focusing on what matters most: each other and the people they love.
