Missi and Matthew

ojai, california

Missi + Matthew’s incredible wedding began with their rustic, European inspired rehearsal dinner at Ojai Valley Inn’s stunning gated estate, Casa Elar. Their ceremony was at Ojai Valley Inn’s 200 year old great oak tree, with a lush farmhouse cocktail hour and reception to follow highlighting greens, golds, black and white for a clean, organic feel. At the center of the dinner sat a gorgeous grand piano, and afterward, everyone was led inside to a dimly lit, speak-easy themed afterparty strewn with green velvet furniture and vintage decor.

"As if being a talented photographer wasn’t enough, her kindness and thoughtfulness is what stands out the most. We have found
a wonderful friend in the process and are
so grateful."

— Missi + MATTHEW TAPPER
