It's always a great privilege to help an industry insider celebrate that special day. The June wedding of Details Details planner, Alicia Townsend, and the love of her life, Joel, was particularly touching and wonderfully unique. The almond groves of Alicia's family farm in Bakersfield provided the perfect setting to commemorate the couple's love, while showcasing nature's beauty and Alicia's passion for style and design.
Alicia and her amazing floral and event designer, White Lilac, wove wonderful creative details into her day—some elegant, others whimsical—a breathtaking wedding altar overflowing with flowers, lovely AJ monograms decorating our serving trays, fabulous chandeliers lighting the reception, utterly charming escort card drinks.
We at GG! wish Alicia and Joel all the best—days filled with food, fun and love in a long and happy lifetime together. It was truly an honor to be a part of this joyful and unforgettable day!
