A Rustic, Elegant Barn Wedding at Nestldown in Los Gatos, California

Jenn Zimmer (25 and a public relations professional) and Zack Zimmer (26 and a sales executive) dated long distance between Michigan and California for seven months before getting engaged. Zack booked a flight to California and coordinated with Jenn’s parents to make sure the proposal went smoothly. Jenn and her father were at a wine bar when he got a phone call and stepped outside. As Jenn waited for him to return, Zack walked and asked her the question that would change their lives forever. The couple got married at Nestldown in Los Gatos, California, with an on-site barn for their ceremony and reception surrounded by redwood trees. The rustic, elegant wedding had a color palette of navy and gray, which the wedding party complemented with navy dresses and gray slacks with dress shirts. Due to the rain, the couple couldn’t have their ceremony outside like they had originally planned, so it was moved into the rustic barn instead. “It poured rain on our wedding day, so we had to come up with a plan B and move our entire wedding from outside to inside the barn at the last minute,” says Jenn. “However, we didn’t let the rain ruin our day, and in the end, it truly made our wedding day perfect.”
