Amy and Josh got married in front of a cardboard castle at the UC Berkeley Faculty Club at dusk on a perfect day. It was like watching an indie fairytale! I love how they basically made everything for the wedding themselves. Think DIYx10. Amy is an awesome artist, and she handmade the castle for an art installation a few years back. It is buit from lots of intricate pieces of cardboard, and made for a unique and beautiful backdrop for their wedding. Amazing, right? The banquet hall at the Berkeley Faculty Club is already like the inside of a castle, and I love how they were able to deploy Amy’s sculpture to complete that vibe. I love all of the floral arrangements, succulent centerpieces, Amy’s dress, Josh’s outfit, ect. Enjoy!













Their friends played such a beautiful version of the Magnetic Field’s song, “Book of Love” as the procession came down the isle.





















You can see more in their wedding slideshow, or in the online proofing gallery. Cheers!
