Karen and Ansel are married!! They decided to stay close to home and chose Piedmont Community Hall as their venue. Nestled between hiking trails and the city, the location was  for an outdoor wedding. Karen and Ansel had their first look on the Oakland streets that reminded me much of New York City. When they saw each other, it was the cutest moment as Ansel saw his striking bride for the first time. Their wedding was intimate yet flawless in every way. Helina of A Touch of Grace did a grand job planning the wedding and Ellen of Gingerleaf Floral brightened the space with vibrant florals. Karen and Ansel has always been a fun couple – it wasn’t surprising that Karen smashed a cupcake in Ansel’s face at the end of the night. I mean, isn’t that what love is? :] Congratulations, Karen and Ansel!
