{Inspiration Board} Peachy Keen & Green

I think peach is the new pink.  It is soft, feminine, and lovely but you can sell your fiance on it because it isn't pink.  And it works as a neutral because you can pair it with almost any other color and it works.  You can pair it with brighter colors and make your palette cheery and summery like this, or with browns and tans to make it more rustic like this.  But I think my favorite pairing is with another soft color, like this peach and sea glass green combination.

If I were getting married all over again I think this would be my chosen color palette!  It is just.so.pretty!

{Real Wedding} Jessica & Dwight: Cheery Morning Ceremony with Fun Nighttime 80's Themed Reception

This wedding is doubly good.  It is full of cheery yellow love in its morning ceremony, and the couple had an 80's themed party as their reception later that night.  With an 80's cover band and everyone wearing 80's outfits.  I would love to be invited to a wedding like that so I could get my crimper out of retirement (you know you had a crimper too!)

The ceremony venue was pure rustic gorgeousness.

At the end of the ceremony, guests serenaded the couple with "All You Need is Love" by The Beatles.

I love DIY petal cones!

There may be nothing better than billy button boutonnieres.

The stationery suite set the warm and cheery tone.  

And check out that 80's themed reception card above!

The lovely florals were simple single arrangements and multiples in vintage mason jars and bottles.

And now, on to the party!

This might be my favorite picture.  Ever.

If you're the bride and having an 80's themed party, who better to be than Madonna!?

What a happy and fun wedding!  It looked like a true celebration of the couple and I'm so honored I got to share it with you.  Congrats Jessica and Dwight!

It's in the Details: Chicken Wire

Since we have long ago established that I love all things rustic, vintage, flea-markety (yes, that is a real adjective!), and country chic, I'm always looking for ways to incorporate that type of stuff into wedding and home decor.  Enter, chicken wire...

I love the look of chicken wire - the graphic pattern of it.  I think it could look really cool on a wedding stationery suite for a rustic farm or barn wedding, with little chicken wire touches in the decor.  You could have the flower girl basket and bathroom goodies baskets made out of chicken wire, and maybe the escort cards displayed on a chicken wire board like the one above.  Someone please use it in their wedding and then share the pictures with me!

{Real Engagement} Brianna & Doug: Vintage Outdoor Engagement Session

This engagement session is just laid-back cool, from the cool cute couple to the cool vintage cars.  I love when couples just have fun together in front of the camera instead of doing a super-styled, over propped session (except for big balloons...I LOVE big balloons!)  You can feel the love more.  They seem so loving and fun.  And the groom-to-be can seriously rock a 'stache!

A vintage pickup truck picnic...Yes please!

Did I mention I LOVE big balloons!?
