From Kathleen, the lovely, lovely bride…

Since a large part of both of our childhoods was sitting around a dinner table, a family style meal was a given. We managed to save quite a bit of money by doing many of the projects ourselves. I am a graphic designer so I designed all of the printed materials and other details. I found my dress online and was able to buy it at nearly half the price. We choose to take advantage of the beauty and simplicity of the venue and kept the decorations to a minimum. The only flowers at the wedding were actually the bouquets that each of my sisters carried. My mother-in-law sewed the two table runners and the back-drop to our alter. And the music was simply an iPod hooked up to the winery’s AV system.

So much more to come!

    Is there any way to find out where the bride got the candle or candle holders that are in the center of the long table?

  2. Kathleen says:

    I got them at Ikea and then made vellum sleeves to go over them to diffuse the light. Super easy and cheap!

  3. Julie says:

    This is really elegant and modern. I love the table setting. Besides the runner, the candles, and the carafes of wine, what else did you have on the tables? I can't tell from the pic!

  4. Love the stark simplicity, gorgeous.
