Kat and Matt’s wedding in Carmel Valley was a vibrant celebration filled with playful charm and heartfelt details. Set at the breathtaking Santa Lucia Preserve, their day carried a joyful, free-spirited energy from start to finish. Guests waved cheerful ribbons during the ceremony, a sweet nod to the couple’s fun-loving nature, while the rolling hills and golden fields provided the perfect California backdrop.
Kat looked radiant in a strapless ballgown paired with pearl-detailed gloves and a soft cathedral-length veil, a timeless look that contrasted beautifully with the whimsical color woven through the day. From hand-drawn invitations to rainbow-hued florals, every element spoke of creativity and warmth. Inside the barn reception, eclectic tablescapes came alive with layered textures, bold taper candles, and colored glassware — a design that felt both modern and personal. Their celebration was a true reflection of who they are: joyful, vibrant, and surrounded by love.
