What happens when co-founder of classic-cool garment maker, Buck Mason, and a crazy-talented graphic designer/hand-letterer/illustrator fall in love? Only the most timelessly designed desert wedding of our dreams! Sasha and Victoria made a weekend of it at swoon-worthy Korakia Pensione (also featured in our Top 26 Coolest Places to Get Married), a Mediterranean-style resort snug between the mountains and and palm trees of Palm Springs. It provided the perfect background for COJ Events to jump in and bring the creative couple’s stylishly breezy nuptials to life!
Victoria shares, We wanted the day to feel effortless and romantic. The Korakia really allowed us to capture this with it’s natural, rustic, sexy vibes. No table cloths, vases, color schemes, or frills. Surrounded by a graphic mountain, silhouetted palm trees, a warm breeze, dripping candles, great tunes, great food, and all our favorite people. What more could we ask for?
We love it! Tyler Branch captured the no-frills, all-romance details below!
We told you Victoria was talented! She set the day’s rustic, desert tone by designing her own invitations and lettering for the celebration.
Love how the natural bridesmaids dresses made the flowers POP!
Sasha is devoted to refining the classics and building timeless pieces when it comes to creating garments for Buck Mason, so it’s no surprise that he turned in-house for his attire!

So sweet!
A floral fountain?! LOVE this magical touch by Leelina Martin!
No one knows what you have planned or envisioned, so don't sweat the details if something doesn't look right or go as planned. No one will notice.
Delegate and make sure you have ZERO to-do's on the day.
Make it a weekend. One day is not enough.
Keep your partner by your side.
A delicious (and beautiful!) menu, catered by Heirloom LA.
Wow, there were a few. We'd have to say, the last song of the night out on the dance floor sweating profusely to LCD Soundsystem's "All My Friends."
Such a perfectly dreamy day! Congratulations, Sasha + Victoria!

I see the best memory was the last dance but I didn’t see a band or DJ credited…? Was the music DIY?
