Read MoreMeet Elizabeth and Shane. Their heartfelt celebration brought together all of their favorite people in a magical hilltop setting in the Malibu hills. Their love of the Southwest with the desert landscape, soft warm hues, turquoise stones and spring wildflower super blooms created the foundation for the design. Between the two of them (Elizabeth comes from Broadway and Shane is a composer/actor), their guests were a joyful gathering of the chic-est performance art crowd ever.

The 14th century castle with its timeworn towers, intimate chapel, vaulted ceilings and Roman arches sets a romantically traditional backdrop for weddings large and small. Finding inspiration for the design was effortless. We were influenced by the bucolic, late summer landscape of the Puglian countryside with its naturally dried wildflowers and sun drenched stone.

With family ties to the area and stunning views of the San Juan Islands, these two chose the charming historical Sacred Heart Catholic Church in La Conner for the ceremony followed by the Port of Anacortes’ spacious Transit Shed for their reception.

Read MoreAny one who is in the know, knows that Puglia is Italy’s new destination wedding hot spot. Our couple is from the south of Italy, only a stone's throw away from this alluring region, renown for its distinctive architecture with white washed limestone walls and conical roof tops (called trulli).
