A Loft Wedding at the Estate On Second

Estate on Second first look

A gas company turned loft wedding venue

Kate and Ben’s wedding last spring at The Estate On Second was a little slice of design heaven! Don’t be fooled by the “Southern Counties Gas Company” sign on the building; this space in downtown Santa Ana is ready to party.  The open loft layout of Estate on Second meant we could do anything we dreamed of! Because of the versatile space, we were able to flip the ceremony area into a completely new look for the reception during cocktail hour. We also created a non-traditional arch by using a white credenza framed with a dreamy hanging garland, designed by Laura of Poppyhill Flowers. Later on, this same look was used as the backdrop for Kate and Ben’s sweetheart table. One of my favorite on-trend pieces were the geometric flower vases at each table. Even the flower girls carried their bouquets in a triangle basket! It helped to give this wedding a unique, modern spin on florals!

Kate and Ben are one of the most adorable couples I’ve had the pleasure of working with. Cheers to your love!

Hi, I'm Kari.
Wedding Planner, Podcaster, & Creative Entrepreneur.

The founder and lead planner behind Feathered Arrow Studio. Over the past 11 years, I’ve designed and executed more than 175 weddings throughout Southern California, helping couples create celebrations that feel deeply personal and beautiful.

My approach blends thoughtful design with genuine hospitality. I care deeply about how a wedding feels not just how it looks. I want every detail to be intentional and every guest to feel taken care of. Together we take your inspiration, your story, and your priorities and turn them into a celebration that feels effortless, welcoming, and unmistakably yours.

Not every couple needs full-service planning, which is why I also offer wedding consults and planning guides for those navigating the process on their own. I’m also the co-host of Just Another Biz Podcast, where we have honest conversations about the wedding industry with fellow creatives behind the scenes.
