Royal Wedding :: Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden

This past Saturday at Stockholm Cathedral was the largest royal wedding since the wedding of Charles & Diana. Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden married her love, Daniel Westling (now Prince Daniel) in front of 1,200 royal guests with 500,000 people lining the streets.

Some of the fun facts: Her train was an astonishing 16.5 feet long, her crown was the same crown her mother wore when she wed on the same day in 1976, and the event was watched by 50 million viewers on television.

Daily Inspirations :: Green Zebra Print

This is one of the most unique uses of color that I've seen in quite a while, and I LOVE it! The green really pops against the black & white....and to make it more unique, they incorporated different patterns; green zebra, black & white stripes, cameos, flourishes....and it all works so well together! Another few details I liked....the baby's breath arrangement (which, coincidentally, I just blogged about loving recently), the ice sculpture wedding cake, the little comfort food snacks like french fries and Frito Chili Pie...and since it was a New Year's Eve wedding, I love the fact that their favors were dried black eyed peas with a recipe card. (For those who aren't familiar, southern tradition is to eat Black Eyed Peas on New Year's Day).
