Now it wouldn’t be a Jose Villa day without showing off work of his wildly talented other half, mister Joel Serrato. He’s one of those guys who picks up a camera and turns anything he captures into film world gold. No joke. And since Joel was there to document Dani and Ryan’s perfect day, we thought we’d set aside some time to swoon the footage inside and out.
And just when I was totally certain today could not get any better, I stopped to watch their fabulous honeymoon film. That’s right, a perfectly packaged video of Dani and Ryan’s post-wedding trip to Africa. With a portable super 8 on hand, they shot the special moments for Joel to craft into a lifelong treasure. It’s an absolute keepsake every couple deserves and is a service now offered by Joel to his lovely clients. Seriously, best idea EVER.

Shut the front door Jose Villa. This, this very wedding is one of the reasons I love Jose so much. It’s woven with breathtaking details shot in a way you can’t put words to, a way that Jose Villa knows all too well. It’s his trademark and when a wedding falls in our laps with details like these crafted by Moon Canyon Design + Foret Bespoke Floral + Sierra Knot and a couple so joyous you can’t help but smile, well it makes me love my dream job all the more fiercely. And if I’m being really honest, I want to steal that VW Bus and drive it around for the rest of my days. It’s a love bus in its cutest form. Have a look at the full gallery for so much more (plus the engagement and rehearsal dinner) and stay tuned because we have the wildly beautiful film behind the day coming up next!
From Moon Canyon Design… The ceremony took place in a remote area of the farm. We wanted the decor to enhance the guests journey down the overgrown walkways to this site. Vintage photos lined pathways to the ceremony which opened up to a dramatic branch arbor covered with wild hydrangea local to New England.
For the reception we took a more elegant approach to our farm focused design. A mix of Dramatic 3 foot tall arrangements and lower wide arrangements were overflowing with fall flowers. Including Passion Vine, Sunflowers and Dahlias these arrangements carried a softer more romantic color palette. Iron chandeliers holding hundreds of candles lit the airy barn creating an intimate ambiance that encompassed the warmth of the day.

I honestly want to be best friends with this couple. Not only is their engagement session through the roof adorable but their rehearsal that followed is far more gorgeous than most weddings we’ve come across. Plus they own a fab boutique in Boston called Flock; a must for all you Beantown dwellers. Told you they were awesome. And we get to journey full circle with them from engagement to rehearsal and right on through to their wedding today. If you think this is amazing, just wait until you see the BIG day. Utterly and completely beyond and captured in a way that only Jose Villa can capture. But first, we’re getting cozy with this easy, approachable Vermont dinner layered with jazzed up hay-bales, gourmet comfort food and fireside chats crafted by Moon Canyon Design + Foret Bespoke Floral + Sierra Knot. Oh and be sure to check out the full gallery. It’s a happy, happy place to be.
And now for the film from the ever lovely Joel Serrato. A match made in post heaven…
From Moon Canyon Design… Initial inspiration for both the wedding and the welcome dinner came from New England fall and Riverside farm. At the welcome dinner we wanted the decor to embody the look of a fun farm wedding. Rustic farm tables, embellished craft paper place-mats and festive lighting helped us achieve this feel. Dani and Ryan wanted the welcome dinner to set a tone for conversation and camaraderie so we designed a space to foster this energy with family style dining tables filled with loosely arranged fall flowers and hay bail sectional seating throughout the grounds adorned with fun ditsy floral fabrics and bright, bold Zinnias.
