A ring designer’s Palm Springs wedding at Korakia
When we saw that Mara + Dean tied the knot at the ever-stunning Korakia Pensione in Palm Springs, we knew we had to see more photos from Cheryl of Jim Kennedy Photographers. And when we learned that Mara is the talented designer behind Smith+Mara and dreamt up their wedding rings?naturally we had learn more about the whole process and how it influenced their design throughout. Get the scoop on both the wedding and the wedding ring, below!
Mara says, When I designed the rings I wanted something that was very classic, timeless, and would not go out of style. I find a lot of people I know who married years ago are in the process of updating their designs from the once trendy pave/halo style rings. I loved the simplicity of a solitaire and the oval shape. For me, the oval is a “high heel” for the finger?it elongates and creates a slimming look for the finger. I know that yellow gold is not the usual go to color for engagement, but it is very much my style and what I wear most. As for the channel set baguette wedding band, I also wanted something timeless, but a little more contemporary and interesting. I wanted the most seamless setting with longer baguettes than you see in most settings. I thought it made it a little more unique and something that could stand alone on a daily basis or when traveling. I am not a flashy person and wanted to keep it simple, but still very me.
This gold collar necklace was one of her grandmother’s favorite pieces to wear to...
