the Groom's brother- a talented drummer sat in for a song with T Bird and the Breaks !





This gorgeous and fun wedding was on a  beautiful warm winter day in  at  Vista West Ranch. 

The couple arrived early to decorate the dessert table was decorated with their save the date/invitations designed by Kelly at Lion in the Sun, Brooklyn NY and all the delicious desserts the Grooms Sister made as a present. Erich and Kathryn opted for a  first look and pre ceremony family photos  so they could enjoy  mingling with guests and their custom signature cocktails.

Royal Fig set up a beautiful spread of food stations  and Petal Pushers decorated the tables with vintage glass and simple flowers. After dinner and toasts the couple did their first dance to "Oh! Darling" by the Beatles  sung by her  dear friend Sasha (who's in T bird and the Breaks)  we set up a photobooth but most the guests kept busy dancing to T Bird's funky soul music!

Cheers to Erich & Kathryn and their many new Brooklyn Adventures!
