Natalie & Ian’s Wedding
Stunning Backyard wedding in Boise, Idaho
Muted tones of rust and blush, billowing pampas grass and a swimming pool in the middle - our design for this stunning backyard wedding was inspired by the bohemian, modern vibes of beautiful Byron Bay.
Both the ceremony and reception were designed around the gorgeous pool in the father of the bride’s Boise backyard. We wanted to not only build around the pool, but also incorporate aspects into it, so we asked Good Seed Floral to adorn the corners with clusters of floating flowers, tying in all of the rust, muted blush and dusty tones.
The bride, owner of Pink by Peach, designed and created all of her own custom signage and paper goods for her big day. Each place setting was adorned with a clear acrylic place card, placed on top of an intentionally organic napkin fold. Boho chargers, gold silverware, brown crystal goblets and wild floral arrangements completed the tablescapes.
We had so much fun designing, styling and coordinating this very special day for our couple. We always jump at the chance to be creative, dream up unique designs and incorporate new ideas. If you’re interested in how Mae&Co can play a part in your big day, click here to learn more!

A romantic campground elopement at Yosemite national park
Have you ever seen a first look with such a wildly incredible backdrop?
Taylor and Mitch shared their wedding day first look at the stunning Taft Point in Yosemite National Park, captured by the talented Jordan Voth.
The couple continued to take advantage of all the amazing views the park has to offer and shared their personal vows, just the two of them, beside a serene lake in the forest. Their ceremony was followed by a stunning picnic tablescape, designed and styled (florals and all) by yours truly, Mae&Co Creative.
Planning this Yosemite elopement for Taylor and Mitch, distinctively and uniquely for them, was such a joy. If you’re curious about how Mae&Co can help with your special day, click here!

Pink House, Azores, Portugal
Hannah & Bradley’s Elopement
A Dreamy Elopement at Pink House Azores, Portugal
Sleeping in, enjoying a cup of coffee with your best friend and adventuring around a beautiful island in Portugal.. this was the blissful, dream of a wedding day that our sweet couple, Hannah and Bradley, shared together this past April.
Just a two hour flight from Lisbon, lies the magical island of Saõ Miguel, which is home to the infamous Pink House; an old renovated barn, surrounded by stunning gardens and fruit orchards. This was the spot that our couple both started and ended their special day, celebrating their love exactly how it should be, true to them.
“Eloping, the day held no agenda, no timeline, just an open schedule to truly experience every moment of the day, exactly as we wanted to. We woke up at noon to share a breakfast before we parted ways to get ready and write our vows in different wings of the Pink House. We only spent an hour apart, but it was enough for anticipation to rise and tears to well as we shared our first look outside our beautiful pink home - Above all else, I love that eloping gave us complete freedom to enjoy the start of our marriage in a way that was meaningful to us, unique to who we are as a couple” - Hannah
Designing and planning this elopement for Hannah and Bradley was an absolute dream! Together with Goodseed Floral, we created a unique and intimate area for the couple to return to after sharing their vows on the most romantic, foggy cliffside we could find! Bold teal, bright coral and organic, wild florals encompassed their beautiful sweetheart table - a cozy, curated corner, just for them on their most special day.

Babes Brunch Disco
Babes Brunch started out as just a fun idea.. 20 industry girls, an intimate brunch & a beautiful design. Today, Babes Brunch is an event encompassing all creative women; spoiling them and letting them unwind and connect with like minded ladies in an exquisitely designed space.
We hosted our most recent 90 person Babes event at the stunning Evergreen venue in Portland, OR and we could not be more thrilled with how it turned out!
From the fun guest attire to the disco ball photobooth backdrop, our ‘Daylight Disco’ theme was brought to life in so many ways!
For the tablescape we chose modern black chairs and beautiful, stark white tables from Vintage Meets Modern. Each setting was adorned with a tiny disco ball and custom place card and menu from Seek Paper Co. Suspended over the tables were incredible cloud like, baby’s breath installations by Brier & Ivy.
The guest pampering entailed a lash bar by Styled by Mal, as well as numerous local pop-up shops selling unique, curated items! The spoiling continued with a cotton candy machine, speciality cocktails by Public Provisions and a full dessert spread by The Hungry Hero!
The love, support and community within these events is something super special. Both, the guests that attend and the incredible vendors that contribute truly make Babes Brunch what it is.
We are so excited to be taking this amazing event on the road this year, making Babes Brunch accessible to ladies all across the country! Keep an eye out for new release dates and locations and send us a message if you think Babes Brunch should come to your city!

Babes Brunch Morocco
Babes Brunch is a special time for creative women in the industry to gather in a beautiful space to brunch, laugh, connect and encourage one another! It’s so important to us to bring together a group of inspirational, hard-working girls and spoil them the way each of them deserves!
Our November Babes Brunch at The Bindery in McMinnville, Oregon, was a dreamy, Moroccan inspired event like no other! 60 amazing, creative women joined us for an afternoon of pure pampering and fun. We wanted to provide a space where women could just show up, relax, indulge and enjoy.. something that is so rare for those working in the creative industry! Kore Herbals setup a DIY Sugar Scrub bar and with Union Wine Co. bubbles in hand, everyone lined up to snap fun group photos with Smirk Photobooth Co!
The Moroccan inspired design was brought to life by an incredible group of vendors! Bowerbird events draped the room with textured, tan fabric to give a sort of tent feel. Marisa of Revel Petals decked out the space with pampas grass, hanging tumble weeds and large dried installations, suspended over the tables! We hand selected all of the rentals from Classic Vintage and set up large lounge areas for the ladies to sit and chat with one another! The edible table runner by Savour and Graze was one of our favorite aspects of the bunch… seriously a work of art!

Castaway, Portland, OR
Emily & Adam’s Wedding
The inspiration behind this glamorous, industrial wedding, came from the couple’s desire to create a 1920’s, classy, minimal vibe.
The elegant and modern color scheme of rust tones and emerald green appeared everywhere from the couple’s custom paper goods by Seek Paper Co to the cozy corner lounge we designed using Archive Rentals. The green velvet vintage settee and sleek black leather chairs are just another way the couple’s modern, yet classic, style comes through in the design.
For the tablescape, we selected a traditional champagne coupe glass for that classic feel, but lined the tables with edgy, artistic floral centerpieces, flowing out of sleek, terra cotta vessels, created by Sarah of Selva Floral Design.
We knew we wanted their ceremony backdrop to be absolutely stunning, but also understated. We worked closely with Selva to make this amazing, muted, floral wall come to life. After the ceremony, the floral wall was repurposed to be the backdrop for the photo booth and was enjoyed by the couple and their guests for the entirety of the evening.
After the ceremony, the couple proposed a thank you toast to their family and friends in quintessential, Gatsby era style - a champagne tower stacked six coupe’s high.
We weren’t sure it was possible to create an “over the top” yet minimal vibe, but for this couple’s special day, we achieved exactly that.
