Don’t know about you, but whenever we see rainy weddings like Amanda + Cody’s, we’re always left with that feeling that *everything turned out just as it should*. It’s certainly not something they anticipated when planning their outdoor ceremony at The 1909 in Topanga Canyon, but the whole day ended up being a perfect reflection of them and their quirky-cool moody fall style. See what we mean by perusing Mandee Johnson Photography‘s photos in the post!

Amanda explains, We brought things from our home like all the skulls, kewpies, and photobooth stripes that represent us well and our love of collecting old and macabre things. We love darker tones, almost gothy, but also romantic and timeless so the for the flowers we were both super into over the top tonal arrangements. We also wanted nature to play the biggest part in the decor, so the venue was perfect for that.
The bridal bouquet recipe: cream Piaget garden roses, quicksand roses, majolica spray roses, antique hydrangea, silver dollar eucalyptus, olive branches, lacey dusty miller, seeded eucalyptus, king protea, acacia, wax flower, astrantia, magenta hydrangea, and olive branches

Amanda is a graphic designer, and she was behind their invitations, seating chart, photo booth stripe, welcome signs, and schedule cards for guests.
