Burlap & Oak Wedding Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Avila Beach, CA

I grew up on California's Central Coast and obtained a minor in Photography from Cal Poly SLO. My love for photography started in high school and has always been my sole aspiration. As a photographer, I understand that photos hold cherished memories that last a lifetime. Whether it's with family, friends, or loved ones, photos capture precious moments that we can revisit time and time again. These snapshots serve as a visual reminder of the joys we've experienced and the people we've shared them with.

If you’re looking for someone professional, funny, personable, and skilled, Andy is your guy! Getting quotes for photographers can be very intimidating and stressful. When I first reached out to Andy, I had a feeling that he was going to be the perfect match for us (and his price options are reasonable and affordable!). He kept in contact during the months leading up to our wedding, answering all of my questions and sending a list of questions for us to answer. We ended up pre-choosing what family/group pictures were most important to us and providing names. Andy had that list with him at our wedding and stuck to it, keeping us on schedule, but was willing to take on-the-spot added groups, too. He captured all of the moments that mattered to me, from the first look to the first dance. He took beautiful wedding party photos, posed and candid. He was very professional and able to take family group shots while being swarmed by hummingbirds. He made us laugh and smile. Even better, we received a small set of photos 2 days later, and all of the photos within 2 weeks. 11/10 would recommend!!

Weddings have been a part of my life since I was six years old. Growing up as the youngest of eight cousins, someone was always getting married. The summer of my 21st birthday, I started my career with weddings at an Alaskan lodge hosting ten weddings that first summer. Since then I've worked in floral design, photography, & the food/wine industries. In 2017, I toured California working event logistics at five different festivals, including Coachella.

Rose was so incredibly helpful and thoughtful in helping us curate a rooftop reception following our SF City Hall marriage. Her expertise in event planning lended so much insight into what was needed to organize the event in the weeks prior, and her team’s attention to detail made our rooftop event really feel like a celebration. She and her team not only handled set up, decorating, and takedown, but she also offered kindness and joy to us throughout our time working with her.

Candice and her team were a pleasure to work with. She was professional, kind, and above all very adaptive. We had to pivot/switch up a few details due to weather on our wedding day and I was SO relieved by Candice’s ability to make quick, smart decisions without ever making me feel overwhelmed or stressed on the day of.

She was able to bring my ideas to life and the planning tools she utilizes ensure everyone is on the same page without things getting lost in countless email threads.

Since 2008, I have been dedicated to making dream weddings come to life. My passion for being a wedding planner stems from the joy and fulfillment that comes with creating unforgettable moments for couples on one of the most significant days of their lives. Being born and raised on the Central Coast is a true blessing. I've grown to appreciate this unique and quirky place I call home as the years have passed. When I'm not flexing my planning muscles you can probably find me still in the mix at a local event, concert or winery. I'm a dog mom, a tiny human mom, and a lover of all things Italian.

Monica helped plan and execute my October wedding in the Santa Ynez Valley and we could have been happier with the entire experience. She was our wedding coordinator starting about 6-8 weeks ahead of the wedding, although she started working with us a few months out to make sure we selected vendors and contracts with the right details in mind. She understood our vision and the vibe we wanted for the day and TOTALLY delivered. She also did our flowers, and they were stunning. Monica ensured the wedding setup and day of schedule went off without a hitch. She worked so hard the day before and day of - especially on the tablescapes, which I had told her I cared a lot about. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs wedding planning or wedding coordination.

Makeup by Anna Grimes 

5.0

  • Beauty professional
  • Starts at $700
  • Serves Avila Beach, CA

I've been working in the beauty industry over 21 years. My career began after earning a cosmetology license, at the age of 19. This is when I began working for prestigious cosmetic companies such as Chanel, Estee Lauder, and MAC. I received training from leading people in the makeup industry, along with assisting and working along side celebrity makeup artists. Roles I've held during my career include working as a freelance makeup artist, cosmetic retail manager, cosmetic business manager, and makeup trainer.

Anna was truly amazing! She was very communicative and made sure she understood what I was hoping for and that she was capturing my personal style. During the trial she made adjustments and gave me different options to help me find my perfect look. She made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day and I'm so happy I went with her!

Tami Bernard Makeup Artist LLC 

5.0

  • Beauty professional
  • Team of 8
  • Serves Avila Beach, CA

Tami Bernard is a freelance professional makeup artist who is an educator and specializes in bridal makeup. She is known for making her clients look breathtaking. Using her own techniques and small brushes helps her to achieve skin that looks beautiful and evenly blended, as though she is using a magnifying glass. Tami has been trained in Los Angeles, New York, and New Orleans. Tami has created a team of artists that work with her to keep up with the demand of the ever-growing wedding industry.

This recommendation comes so easily, as hiring Tami was one of the absolute best choices I made first my wedding. From the early messaging back and forth, all the way up to the day of my wedding, Tami was a dream to work with. She’s so sweet, helpful and accommodating… she just really made the whole process as easy as possible. Then, on the day of my bridal makeup trial, she proved her skills and talent! Not only did she make me feel more beautiful and “myself” than I had in years… possibly ever; she was willing to try different colors and tweak different aspects until it was just right. One thing I was most concerned about are the acne scars on my cheeks, and I let her know this and that I’d like to conceal them as much as possible but also explained that I didn’t want the foundation to look cake-y. And I don’t know what kind of sorcery she did but my skin looked fantastic, and that confidence honestly was everything I could’ve hoped for as a bride. Lastly, one other thing that was a really cool bonus when working with Tami is that she taught me something about my specific skintone & undertone that has frustrated me my whole life and has ultimately changed the way I do my makeup with huge benefits, and for that I’m eternally grateful. So, should you hire Tami Bernard as your makeup artist for your wedding (or any other big event)? Yes! You won’t find anyone sweeter, more knowledgeable or more skilled.. that I’m certain of.
