Sophie & Zack's Wedding

















Twenty Mile House is charming bed and breakfast as well as a wedding venue, located in Cromwell, California, just outside of Graeagle. The quaint location, situated next to the train tracks, and set into the forest along the river, was once a popular stop for those traveling by rail.


For Sophie and Zack, it provided the perfect, vintage location to exchange their wedding vows. Just as Sophie made her way down the aisle towards Zack, a whistle-blowing train flew by, making everyone chuckle as they all waited at least five minutes for it to become quite again.



It was like a step into the past, with perfect shabby chic wedding details including the banner sign, made my Sophie's Mom, and the antique typewriter left for guests to type a message to the bride and groom. Little lights and buttons of color strung through the trees, and Radio Active Band played their hearts out! What a fabulous day and a reception filled with fantastic food and entertainment, to celebrate the union of this remarkable couple.



Thanks Sophie and Zack for the pleasure of assisting you with your wedding. Your warmth and love, your fantastic smiles, and the memory of your wedding in the forest, will be reserved in my memory forever. xoxo Liane

Happy Earth Day!

Ways to Save and Have an Eco-Friendly Wedding

Glam Up In Vintage
Visit local thrift stores, ebay and check out friends and families’ attics for décor, props or maybe even mom’s old wedding gown. You can discover old treasures, use something “old” with a “new” purpose and feel good about the recycling effort while getting glam in vintage.

Serve Green on a Silver Platter
Serve organic, local foods, wines and spirits – with just a little research, your menu can contain foods grown locally or through sustainable farming practices. Consider utilizing your wedding planner and cater to help make a donation of all the leftover food to a local homeless shelter or church.

Give the Gift that Keeps Giving
A charitable donation, a small potted plant or flower, make a lovely, lasting wedding favor that your guests can appreciate and cherish for longer than your wedding weekend.

This is a modern twist to offering seed packets as an eco-friendly wedding favor. These Celebration Grow Favors are customizable and made from 100% post-consumer waste. Embedded with wildflower seeds, all you need to do is plant the favor in a pot of soil, provide water and sunlight and watch it grow!

After the Wedding

While I love talking about weddings, there is a lot more to living a life with your partner once the party is over. Earth Day is a day designed to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's environment, so here the top ten sustainable tips to keep you environmentally aware throughout the year. No they aren’t necessarily wedding related, but after the big party…there is life (that’s the marriage part).

1 – Eat Organic
2 – Reduce your carbon footprint
3 – Recycle
4 – Deny disposables
5 – Switch to natural personal care.
6 – Use natural lawn care (if you have a lawn – lucky!!)
7 – Clean green
8 – Filter your tap water
9 – Increase energy efficiency
10 – Stay informed

An Airstream Wedding - Three Points Ranch

Matt & Jamie's Wedding :: Round Mountain, TX

This is one of my most favorite weddings. I loved all the details that we came up with from custom labels to the catering team wearing unique Anthropologie aprons. Karen, Jamie's mom has amazing taste and provided all the centerpiece vessels for a mismatched chic look.

Sally at Three Points wonderful to work with!


It was one of the rainiest days this past spring - everything was soaked! Karen drove the girls down to the ceremony site ... more like SLID the whole way there! (I got Three Points Ranch's golf cart stuck in the mud - oops!!) She shifted into 4-wheel drive, but not until they did a few donuts! She said it was the "funnest" ride ever and didn't care about the rain anymore. Gotta love a great attitude!


Stacey and the Petal Pushers never cease to amaze me with their incredible talent. This bouquet is by far, one of the coolest-chic-funkiest I've seen.


Diggin' the different style boots to go with all the girls' unique personalities.

Yup - that's a kale (cabbage) in that aisle piece. Too cute!Because the distance from reception to ceremony site were far apart, we enlisted '57 chevies to courier the guests to and from the sites. Complete with comfy hay bales in the back!



As a suprise for Jamie & family, I rented vintage umbrellas in preparation for a rainy day. I think it completed the vision we were after as well as adding a little fun to an otherwise unfortunate weather situation.
