Viktoriya and Danny had contacted me 2 months prior to their
wedding looking for a Day-Of-Coordinator. When hearing about all the details
that the two of them put together and the love that they had for their family and
friends, I was super excited. The wedding took place at an intimate venue surrounded
by luscious greenery called The Outdoor Art Club in Mill Valley, CA. Mill
Valley has got to be the cutest little town I have ever seen. Everyone seemed
to know each other and they have the most amazing coffee houses and boutique
shops.
Viktoriya and Danny’s wedding had a whimsical and woodland
feel to it. Viktoriya is very crafty and basically made all the
details that you see in this wedding from the succulent favors, table numbers, and wine cork signs, to all of the printed items such as the invitations and menus. She even made fabric flowers to go into
the flower centerpieces and bouquets. I couldn't tell which flowers were fake and which were real! The wooden arbor for the ceremony was also
all hand crafted. As a person who enjoys making handmade things, I could really
appreciate the details of the wedding and all the time and effort that was put
into it. It surely didn’t go unnoticed.
One thing that the couple really wanted was for their
wedding to be full of surprises. The first surprise was having Danny’s father
be the officiant. After walking down the aisle, his father went and stood up by
the arbor to officiate the wedding. All the guests were completely surprised as
they didn’t know he would be officiating. Another surprise is right when they
said I DO they had a mariachi band walk down the path playing music and guiding
the guests to cocktail hour. It didn’t stop there…when the bride and groom
entered the reception hall for their first dance they broke out into a choreographed
tap dance that they had been working on for months. Lastly, later in the
evening the couple's tap dance teacher and few of the students surprised the guests
and made an appearance on the dance floor. The whole night was filled with fun
and good times. There was so much love in the air for the couple, their family,
and friends. Vika and Danny, it was a pleasure working with the two of you and
may your life always be full of fun surprises!
