Wedding Photo - FUN!

I read a lot of wedding planning blogs during the week. And sometimes, things become a tad mundane or they start to sound like a lot of recycled information. So when I came across this one today, I actually started to laugh out loud. BravoBride.com/blog Now dont get me wrong, I love Eddie Vedder as much as any girl who graduated from high school in Ohio in the mid 1990's but SERIOUSLY? Take a looks-y at this blog and giggle at the pictures. And remember - planning your wedding is suposed to be fun.

And on a side note, thank you to Miss Sarah (one of my favorite brides EVER) who posted a review of Pick Me Floral and Events Studio on Wedding Wire that said we were better than ambien. I am not gonna lie, I like it.

So enjoy the planning process and remember that it is FUN.

Save the Dates - LIVE

I adore wedding blogs. I really do. Inspiring, touching, funny . . .

Every once in a while, I come across a post that is so sweet and whimsical it kind of chokes me up. Like this one today from Green Wedding Shoes . What a phenomenal way to send a save the date. Of course, they are getting married in Colorado (which probably just makes them more fun than the average couple). Hmmmm, I should see if they have booked all of their vendors. . .

bamboo Inspiration

This is a fun one I am working on for a springtime wedding. Bamboo stalks in various heights anchored in river rock in rustic wooden boxes paired with dried bamboo stalks - wrapped with twine, hypericum berries and rust colored cymbidium orchids - over celadon tablecloths. Rust colored cymbidium orchids will also be paired with bamboo stalks and mini-callas for a sleek and completely one of a kind bouquet.

And the topper of it all? Celedon green bamboo parasols hanging over the dance floor with a soft uplighting. I cant wait to see it come to life!

Favorite Bouquets of 2009!

What a fantastic year. I decided to create a little retrospective of some of our favorite bouquets of the year. We hope it serves as inspiration and a challenge. What can we do next???

Inspiration

Where to start? Where to start? This is a question that we are asked from brides daily. Of course, living in a rustic little ski town, we have a slightly off center perspective. For those of you who dont know where to start, here are some of our favorite inspiration sites:

Style Me Pretty
Snippet and Ink
100 Layer Cake

On the flip side, your inspiration doesnt need to be from a wedding site. Find pictures of fabric, textures, fields of flowers, dishes, pictures . . .whatever makes YOU happy. One of my favorite bridal bouquets ever was inspired by a picture of Colorado Alpenglow and I was told to use coxcomb. Other than that, I was told to run with it. The bouquet is the picture that I have on the top of this blog.

As for inspiration - the picture is from Jenna Walker Photography. It was one of my favorite weddings we worked on this summer. Go and find your inspiration, keep the lines of communication open with your vendors and have FUN!
