Sacramento Wedding by Botanica Floral Designs

December 15th. 2010 by A. Blaire | 23 comments

It might be absolutely frigid in most parts of the country, but this adorable DIY Sacramento celebration is sure to give you the warm and fuzzies. It was a complete family affair, so you know I immediately became sappy and heavy on the oohs and ahhs. For example, the table numbers were from the shingles of the grandmother of the groom’s house! All together now, ahhhhh….And don’t get me started on the gorgeous floral design by...

Geological Inspired Wedding From JCP Event Group

December 15th. 2010 by Eddye | 32 comments

Yesterday, Abby mentioned that she’s starting to like the idea of “themed” weddings. In the olden days, she would have cringed at that word! But brides, today, are really “getting it.” They’ve become adept at merging those little pieces of their own interests and personality with those of their groom’s, resulting in very...

Shutters on the Beach Wedding by Flowerwild

December 14th. 2010 by Abby Larson | 19 comments

The fabulous Kate Holt, at Flowerwild in Southern California, is kind of like my flower hero. Her work totally and completely blows me away…of course because it’s beautiful, but also because it has this “kate” effect, where you find yourself completely giddy the minute you open one of her picture perfect weddings. And this one, photographed by the equally talented...

Literature Themed Wedding on a Budget

December 14th. 2010 by Abby Larson | 55 comments

But frankly, after seeing dozens of weddings where a theme was so delicately and so beautifully threaded into each and every detail…I’m a total believer that a theme wedding can be absolutely magical. Such is the case with this next little number. A literary themed affair, pulled off to perfection for $13,000. Which is shocking when you see...
