The ceremony was absolutely beautiful.  It took place at Hollins House at Pasatiempo in Santa Cruz.  The bride and groom wrote their own vows and had a very contemporary ceremony, but also included some elements of a traditional Jewish wedding (signing of the Ketubah, breaking of the glass).  The site was simply decorated with flowers in mason jars hung along the aisle, as well as on the gazebo.  Strings of lights on the gazebo added a subtle glow as well, which was a nice complement. And, since the reception was also on site, it was a seamless transition from one part of the day to another.  One of my favorite parts? Jake the “ring dog”!
