vintage celebration

Jason + Cristen

Frederick Loewe Estate

Palm Springs, California

In the radiant sunlight of Palm Springs, California, Jason and Cristen's wedding at the historic Frederick Loewe Estate unfolded as a picturesque homage to the vibrant and sophisticated 1950s. This celebration of love, recently featured in BRIDES magazine, beautifully blended the couple's unique journey with a nostalgic nod to the past, all while casting an eye towards their future together.

The narrative of Jason and Cristen’s romance adds a touch of modern destiny to their vintage-themed celebration. Their initial missed connection in Palm Springs, nurtured through texts, calls, and eventually a meaningful meeting in Boston, showcases the couple's commitment to each other from the very beginning. This story of love, fate, and perseverance set the stage for their meticulously planned wedding.

Every aspect of their wedding day was infused with elements that spoke not only to the era they wished to evoke but also to their personal tastes and experiences. Working with The Paper Perfectionist, Jason and Cristen created an invitation suite that immediately immersed their guests in the Palm Springs vibe, complete with retro fonts and mid-century modern designs. The inclusion of their beloved Kokomo Winery's red wine further personalized the celebration, adding a taste of their shared passions to the festivities.

Cristen’s choice of the Ellys gown by Christopher Paunil, discovered at Grey Pearl Bridal, exemplified her elegant style and connection to the world of bridal fashion. The emotional tribute to her late cat, Whiskey, through the inclusion of his favorite ribbon in her gown, added a layer of personal sentiment to her bridal look.

The ceremony, against the estate's breathtaking backdrop, and the reception that followed were a testament to the couple's attention to detail and their desire to share their love story with their guests. From the colorful and minimalistic décor to the cat-themed signature cocktails and the custom-designed cake, every element was thoughtfully chosen to reflect their journey and personalities.

The recent feature of Jason and Cristen's wedding in BRIDES magazine is a testament to the uniqueness and beauty of their celebration. This acknowledgment not only amplifies the significance of their special day but also serves as inspiration for couples seeking to create a wedding that truly represents their love story and personal style.

Cristen's advice to other couples planning their weddings resonates with wisdom and warmth, emphasizing the importance of focusing on the celebration of love over the pursuit of perfection. This message, paired with the couple's own story of overcoming challenges and embracing the unexpected, highlights the essence of what makes a wedding truly memorable.

Featured in BRIDES magazine, Jason and Cristen's wedding at the Frederick Loewe Estate was a vibrant celebration that masterfully blended the retro charm of the 1950s with modern elegance and personal touches. Their story, marked by fate, love, and resilience, and their day, filled with thoughtful details and a heartfelt celebration, stand as a beacon of inspiration for love that transcends time.
