As editor of The Fullest Magazine, bride Nikisa was passionate about inviting her guests to experience wellness through food and community at her wedding to high school sweetheart, Eric. From the moment they began planning, Eric and Nikisa knew that food would be important to them and were passionate about every ingredient used in the dishes they served their guests. As a nod to her grandfather, Nikisa chose a kumquat spritzer to welcome her guests.  Following the guidance of a mentor, Nikisa and Eric chose to exchange vows at 2:00 pm in front of their parents and siblings before holding a larger ceremony with all their guests. Surrounded by a circle of candlelight, they stood under a chandelier dripping with strung hyacinth and exchanged vows. To honor her beautiful Persian heritage, Mooncanyon created an organic, deconstructed sofreh for the cermeony.  Spices, eggs, sugar and other meaningful items were placed amongst organic and wild greenery in a beautiful semicircle in which the couple were married.
