Devon and Faith had their wedding at the Los Angeles Natural History Museum, which meant lots of dinosaur and prehistoric details (including dinosaur topiaries!). Faith wore an amazing black gown, sexy mesh booties, and birdcage veil. We love all the shots of the couple with the dinosaur bones… the museum has never looked better.
The ceremony was officiated by Devon’s father and was held in front of the museum’s dinosaur display. It also included an a capella version of Pixie’s “Velouria.” Jessica Schilling Photography captured all of the fun details and shared it with us.

This is amazing!!! I adore the dino topiary and much respect for including the mighty pixies
Thank you! We both love the Pixies! We didn’t want to use a “typical” wedding song! Not our style! 🙂
this wedding is sexy as hell!
Thank you! That’s why our wedding is listed under “Wedding Porn”!
Everything about this is wonderful.
Thank you for the nice comment!
I HAVE to know where this dress is from!
The awesome dress was made by Miss Tashina: http://www.misstashina.com/?p=561
FYI! Tashina is the sweetest person ever! She was wonderful to work with! I highly recommend her!
There is so much awesome in this wedding! If I wasn’t halfway thru planning I’d totally steal this theme:)
Thanks! Good luck on your wedding!!!!
I love everything about this wedding. Amazing.
Thanks! This means a lot to me! Devon & I planned the entire wedding ourselves! No wedding planner! We have some really great friends who helped made our day amazing!
Everything looks wonderful! The Kohaku dragon/Spirited Away cake!! And dinosaurs!! I think I just swooned.
Haha! Thanks! When we showed the cake decorator pictures, she looked at us like we were crazy!
Amazing dress!!!!
Thanks! My advice to anyone getting married is always go with your gut feeling! If you want to wear a blue dress, do it! Traditions are like rules! They are meant to be broken! I have no regrets at ALL! But I’m also a girl who knows what she wants!
omg this is so fun! i think this is exactly how ross gellar should have had his wedding to rachel greene. 🙂 i think the dino topiary centerpiece is my favorite.
That’s funny! I’m sure the wedding would have been much fancier than ours! 🙂
Okay, so who’s going to make me some of those dinosaur topiaries? Because HONESTLY.
Haha! I want to know that too! ALL of our topiaries were gone by the end of the night!
The topiaries are incredible,
I love the cake with the makkurokurosuke ( little night-black blackies). My favourite little characters from ghibli studio…
Thanks to everyone who commented on our cake! Jay’s Catering in Garden Grove, Ca made the cake! Our concept was a last second inspiration, hurriedly scrawled on a napkin. Showing them Spirit Away pictures from cellphones. They did a great job of making it come to life.
OMG DAT CAKE.
A Spirited Away cake?! Win!!!
THE SPIRITED AWAY CAKE.
And you’re so farkin’ gorgeous!!!

Awww, thank you! “blush”
Who made the dino topiaries? Did you do it yourself or was it a florist?
E&J Floral Creations in Los Angeles, Ca created the dino topiaries! Ester did an amazing job carrying out our crazy vision!
anyone know where to buy these fab mesh shoes
Bourriche Studded Ankle Boots by Christian Louboutin AKA “red bottom” shoes
I bought them here:

I checked the website, I believe that style is no longer available! But they still have some wedding worthy shoes!
I did find these shoes (sans studs! , you can DIY! Plus, they cost waaayy less!)
