Jessamyn Harris Photography

Devika and Ron's beautiful 2 day wedding in Sonoma County was featured today on Style Me Pretty, and I just can't stop smiling about it! It was a gorgeous day, the flowers (and food!) were amazing, and Jessamyn Harris captured it all. Check out the Style Me Pretty write up for more photos!

Support Small Business Saturday!

In support of small business Saturday, I wanted to pass along a few of my favorite small businesses that I'd love you to support. Most are run by my friends and family, and they are all awesome people! Even if you can't support them today, please support them this holiday season - or if you're ever in need of their local services. If you have a favorite small business, please add to this list!

J. Jasper Events (well, that's my business - if you're ever in need of help with an event/wedding, please let me know!)

Doughnut Dolly (yummy doughnuts in Oakland!)

Red Tail Ranch (Horses, Eggs, and a great place to stay in Groveland!)

Mountain Sage Nursery and Coffee Shop (and music venue in Groveland!)

International Terrazzo and Coatings (Terrazzo done by the best hands in town)

Allison Andres Photography (she's an awesome photographer and is giving 10% off packages for small business Saturday!)

Golden State Sharpening (the best knife sharpener in the East Bay!)

SeaLeague Skates (Roller Derby skates in South Lake Tahoe)

Maria Jensen (the best real estate agent in Solano County and beyond!)

Amber & Dan - photos!

I'm so happy to present to you a few photos from Amber and Dan's wedding at Joaquin Miller Community Center (held back in September). Dkweddings did a fantastic job capturing the event! And I'm so thankful to Amber, who wrote me a glowing review on Yelp. Thanks Amber!! (and you can check out the full gallery here!)

Tim + Ali

I'm really looking forward to Tim and Ali's wedding this weekend at St. Ignatius/the Fairmont in San Francisco. It's definitely a great way for J. Jasper Events to end a very successful wedding season!

Linda + Liam

vows via instagram

Nestled above the hills of Sonoma lies an amazing piece of property called Moon Mountain Retreat. This is where Liam and Linda said their vows in front a small group of friends any family - and it was beautiful! They had a bluegrass duo playing some jams, amazing paella (from Paella del Reyes), and gorgeous views of the sun setting in the valley. I was so lucky to be a part of their special day!

I loved her short dress!

Caroline + Brian

A beautiful day! Photo by the talented Allison Andres

When my friend and former colleague Caroline told me that her and Brian were engaged and wanted me to be their coordinator, I was beyond ecstatic! These two are such a fun and adventurous couple. They chose the South End Rowing Club in San Francisco as their venue (which also happens to be a place Brian hangs out/goes swimming in the icy cold bay!) It's a fun and quirky little space, with old photos of swimmers and rowers and Bay Area nostalgia. The best part (besides the bride and groom?) - the amazing views of the Golden Gate and Alcatraz. It was truly a perfect, clear, San Francisco day. Congrats friends!

M + D

These 2 beautiful friends of mine got married this weekend in Santa Cruz. The weather gods parted the clouds, the sun was shining bright, and the cool ocean breeze kept everyone happy. It was glorious, if I do say so myself. Can't wait to see the photos! And congrats Mike and Dee!! xoxo
