I’ve got a darling budget wedding in Venice, California to share with you today, courtesy of Kate Harrison Photography.
Susan and Stan were able to keep everything under their $15,000 budget by choosing a budget-friendly venue (the modern Joe’s Restaurant which had such a cool, laid back West coast vibe, and cost only $7,800 for everything!), keeping a keen eye on great sales, and making, simple DIY decor. It just goes to show you don’t have to spend thousands to have a dreamy and chic affair!







Isn’t Joe’s Restaurant lovely? The atmosphere is so light and airy and I love the red chairs!


The food looks delicious too! Oh, and instead of one big wedding cake, Susan and Stan let each guest choose their own individual cake!



The cakes were made by Cake Monkey, whose site looks positively good enough to eat! Oh the tempting cakes!!!

The cutest part of the wedding has to be this little dude, a bird pinata made from the Birchangel Etsy shop.

And of course the bride and groom beat the crap, I mean candy, out of it.
What a cute and fun and wedding! I love every single detail…including the bride’s BCBG dress! What did I tell ya? BCBG is da bomb.
Here are the rest of the vendors:
