Ariadne and Nicholas’ April wedding ceremony at their church in Pasadena was followed by an incredible DIY family gathering at her parents’ home. In between the church and evening receptions, the couple and their bridal party took photos at Pasadena City Hall (where Parks and Rec is filmed) with Alison Yin Photography. Ariadne’s mother planned almost the entire wedding, focusing especially on the lovely outdoor reception. She also made all the flower arrangements and other table decorations. The wedding guests played lawn games in the front yard, while the backyard was the perfect setting for an evening garden party illuminated by strings of lights in the trees and plenty of candles. Ariadne’s family is Greek, so the reception included lots of Ouzo shots, too!
