FALLING FOR YOU // khali & potsch
I've been excited about sharing Khali and Potsch's wedding since the moment I laid eyes on them... the day they arrived in Portland after a long drive from L.A. for their engagement shoot over a year ago. One smile and a hug later, I felt like I'd known them my whole life. You look at Khali and Potsch and you see two shining beings full of incredible creativity, humor, talent, thoughtfulness, as well as a timeless quality that's hard to pinpoint. They strike that improbable balance between glamorous movie star and kid next door that reminds me a little of my grandparents, who spent the 60s touring nightclubs all over the country while playing a variety show. Khali and Potsch have that same creative force as a pair, that same giddy twinkle in their eye, and the same ability to put you totally at ease in their presence. You look at them and you know their love is real.
Please pop over to Green Wedding Shoes for more photos and to get the lowdown straight from the bride, as this celebration was jam-packed with more handmade loveliness than you can imagine possible. You'll hear about silk-screened napkins, a paper bouquet, a tree hanging with family frames, a patchwork ring rope, a cupcake village, hand-sewn spats, butterflies for bouquets, big brats, tiny living terrariums, and the incredible movie they made and starred in (Falling For You) that brought down the entire house. Thank you, Jen, for the beautiful feature! Keep an eye on Khali's blog, too, for more photo goodness!
