Eco-Friendly Downtown Art Gallery Wedding: Amber & Jo
Hayley Rheagan
January 9, 2013
Amber & Jo's art gallery wedding was held in downtown LA. They kept things informal and low key, really wanted to focus on the ceremony and hoped to create a real community feel. "We wanted our wedding to be a representation of the things that are important to us and that we love, so we put a lot of thought into the details of the wedding", explained Amber. "We tried to create an experience for everyone that would be a memorable celebration of our love for each other and for our friends and family. Our venue, ArtShare, a non-profit that supports low income youth to get involved in the arts, was perfect in that it allowed us to support a great organization while also providing the perfect physical space. The venue is part warehouse (reminiscent of some of the great downtown LA parties we've been to); part art gallery, which created a lovely reception space; and part theater, where we had the ceremony. It also provided a great spot for photos, with the downtown LA skyline in the background and that uniquely LA combination of colorful murals, graffiti, historic buildings and palm trees."Read more...
