So excited to share part 4/4 of our wedding photos today! (See our getting ready + first look photos in Part 1, pre-ceremony photos in Part 2, and the ceremony in Part 3.) Both our ceremony and reception were in the beautiful courtyard of The Firehouse Restaurant in Old Town Sacramento. We were so in love …
And so the wedding photos saga continues! (In case you missed them, you can find Part 1 here and Part 2 here.) Today I’m sharing photos from our wedding ceremony—one of my favorite parts of the day. We opted for a combination of a traditional American and Persian wedding ceremony. Our officiant Cindie (whom I also …
Today I’m sharing Part 2 of our wedding photos (if you missed Part 1 of our wedding photos, start here), including our pre-ceremony photos with our bridal party, just the two of us, and a peek at some of the details set up at our venue before guest arrival. My makeup: The amazing Makeup by Padi. …
I’m so excited to finally share the first portion of our wedding photos!! When I look at these pictures, all the excitement and emotions from our special day come rushing back to me. It’s hard to believe that almost two months have already gone by since we got married. Omied and I were laughing the …
Since Omied and I are honeymooning in Paris, my mom threw me a Parisian themed bridal shower! We had about 30 close family and friends over (no boys allowed!) and it was such a fun day. My mom has always been the hostess with the mostest, and she put a lot of love into my …
Happy Wednesday! I’m so excited that I’ve finally found all of my accessories for the big day. It was a long process, full of purchases and returns, but it was worth all the effort because I love the complete look. After I had my final fitting for my dress, I brought it home to my …

Here’s a look at the goodies we’ve picked out for our fabulous bridal party. A bit of bling and a cheeky handkerchief for the ladies, and a practical and fun gift for …
Today I’m sharing a little peek at the wedding guest book we had printed with blurb! We used our favorite photos from our engagement shoot and left plenty of blank spaces for guests at our wedding to write notes for us. I selected the photos and since Omied is the design expert, I left it …
This Wedding Wednesday I’m sharing a few snaps from a fun little “mini-shower” that two of my girlfriends in the city hosted. Because who can resist an excuse to get together and sip mimosas, nosh on goodies from local bakeries, and share some girl talk? My friend Oana is a talented designer (her jewelry has …
Wedding dress shopping was probably one of the wedding planning to-do’s that I was most looking forward to…and most nervous about. People kept telling me how it was the most important fashion decision of my life! Here are a few snaps from my road of saying “yes” to the dress. And don’t worry “the one” …
Friends and family have been asking me what kind of groom-to-be Omied has been. “Is he the type who just wants to stay out of the way and let you do the planning? Or is he helping?” Some brides want to do all the planning themselves, but for me part of the fun of wedding …
We’re just 4.5 months away from the big day and sh*t is getting real! Our save the dates went out a few weeks ago and it definitely made us feel like holy cow, our wedding day will be here in the blink of an eye. Omied designed our save the dates and I love how …
