beautiful bride @weddingchicks

When a beautiful lady and a handsome gent come together, love in the air is inevitable. This super cute couple had a wedding day that was equally as gorgeous as they are. With a lot of love and a twist of Disneyland we simply can't get enough.
There are so many cute things to see from this rustic and romantic California wedding in the full gallery here photographed by McCune Photography. Need a darling proposal story to brighten your day? Keep scrolling to find out how Phil popped the question!

Bistro Light Stationery

Phil and Amanda have always enjoyed the outdoors, so it was really easy to incorporate a natural rustic woodsy style of decor into their outdoor space, combined with a soft combination of pastels and ivory tones. Soft lighting with candle lights, bistro lights and a chandelier helped in creating that intimate ambiance. We designed an invitation printed on a thin piece of wood.

Temecula Creek Inn

Temecula Creek Inn offered a beautiful woodsy outdoor space tucked away from everything…so although it was close to the resort, it felt like it was miles away. They also loved the charming historic stone house, dancing under the large oak tree, the wooden bridge over the nearby creek, and of course, the green hills & stone mountains as the backdrop. Phil and Amanda enjoy the rustic outdoors, so Temecula Creek Inn was the perfect setting for their destination wedding, along with the conveniences and luxuries the resort had to offer.

Disneyland Table Names

Tree trunks were used in their centerpieces along with mix-matched clear and dark bottles as bud vases. The 3-tier naked cake perched on a tree trunk was framed beautiful by a large gold framed mirror inside the stone house. They are also big fans of Disneyland, so we brought in subtle touches of that through their table names on wooden signs.

Mini Moon

We can't decide on one specific memory of the wedding that is our favorite because the whole evening was a dream come true! A lot of inspiration for the wedding was from Pinterest and our lovely coordinator Trina! We went on a "mini moon" and stayed at South Coast Winery for two Nights and Disneyland one night.

Read on to see how Phil proposed at Disneyland!

"On Christmas Eve we had dinner with Philips Family at Five Crowns in Corona Del Mar and it had finished somewhat early. Phil asked Amanda if she wanted to go to Disneyland, and she never turns down a Disneyland trip! What better place to spend Christmas Eve. We started at California Adventure and Philip kept insisting on going to Disneyland while the fireworks were going off. After the fireworks we made our way up to the castle. Amanda always wanted a picture in front of the castle at this time of year. We waited and waited for the cast members to open the ropes. Amanda kept saying how we didn't have to wait but phil insisted we take the picture. Finally it was our turn to take a photo. All of a sudden Phil reaches in his inside jacket pocket and got down on one knee. Amanda was in shock and instantly started to cry of happiness and was full of love. He did good. He got me, and of course I said yes" -Amanda and Phil
