Pews for your Outdoor Ceremony

What an absolutely darling idea! Bring the country chapel charm outdoors and use wooden pews for your ceremony instead of the traditional (or plastic) white chairs. It adds so much character and personality! I love the pillows and other touches that can be added as well! These photos are from Pews in the Garden, (located in Dallas, TX) and they provide white or natural wood pews for your outdoor ceremony.

Congrats Marie & Haja!

We did some awesome centerpieces and bouquets for a winter wedding yesterday! The bride wanted snow on her wedding day....and she got it! It was really coming down all day long, so I hope she was able to get some amazing snow pictures! The wintery centerpieces were silver manzanita branches with hanging crystals and white flowers (hydrangeas, roses and stephanotis with crystals).

Android Wedding

The geeky side of me had to share this awesome celebration of love and love of technology.  

Think you’re a hardcore Android fan? Well +Vanessa Kenworthy and+Rhys Kenworthy recently took Android love to a new level with their Android themed wedding!

From the .75 m (2 1/2 foot) Android cake to vows exchanged via their Android phones, this was an event like no other and we want to thank Vanessa and Rhys for letting us share their big day with the Android community. 

So check out some news coverage and pics from the wedding!

Congrats Alexis & John!

Finally, a weekend without rain! I think it's because this is my wedding anniversary weekend....and we always have good weather that weekend! :) But, my anniversary aside.....today was Alexis & John's big day, and they had a beautiful fall themed ceremony and reception at La Malfa in Mentor. I have been so excited about these centerpieces for months! Fall is my favorite time of year, and I absolutely love everything about the details they chose....especially the fall colors! Everything was beautiful! Congrats to Alexis & John!
