THE CEREMONY:
Guided by a love for both heritage and artistry, the ceremony was a refined blend of the classic and the wabi-sabi. Their desire for lush minimalism came to life in two oversized urns, brimming with orchids sourced from Santa Barbara and seasonal smokebush, each petal vibrant with the warmth of summer. A longtime family friend, Russel Wilson, officiated this intimate gathering, his voice melding with the rustle of nearby trees and the faint scent of the sea. The couple’s vision unfolded like a painting—where every bloom and texture whispered of love, rooted in family and legacy.
THE RECEPTION:
Beneath the canopy of a rare moonlit sky, guests dined at a grand feasting table draped in opulent textures and modernist touches. Floating above, garlands of Hawaiian orchids cascaded in an ethereal display, while Danish silver candle holders cast a warm, flickering light across onyx vessels and hand-selected stoneware.
Each guest’s place was marked by a black-and-white Polaroid, resting atop hand-thrown Japanese earthenware from the personal collection of Nicole Chapman Design, a nod to tradition and the beauty of simplicity. The mix of raw stone and polished metals provided a tactile contrast that mirrored the couple’s balance of heritage and modernity.
Meredith and Jordon’s wedding was more than an event; it was an experience steeped in art, intimacy, and understated opulence. By weaving together minimalist elegance with layers of meaningful detail, Nicole Chapman Design created a day that felt as timeless as the love it celebrated—a memory etched in petals, moonlight, and the subtle alchemy of the night.
