Citrus Wedding Reception

Happy Valentine's Day!  I adore the citrus and pink color combo of this fabulous Southern wedding reception.  It would also double perfectly for any Valentine's Day soiree you're having from a romantic dinner for two or for a party for all your amazing single ladies.  This wedding reception had it all from the bright colors, to the simple and elegant florals, to the stunning candy bar, adorable grooms cake, and the fabulous single ladies performance by the bride and her bridesmaids.  Looks like this was one festive and fun reception!

Beach Wedding

I fell in love with both the charm of this beach wedding and these beautifully captured photos.  From the personality of the bride and groom infused into every detail, to the gorgeous florals - each bridesmaid had her own bouquet, to the large balloons, dessert lounge, and the ceremony site, there's so much to love and obsess about.  But when the bride is a florist you know you're getting something special in her wedding.  The bride, groom and their entire family spent Saturday's transforming the ceremony site, her brother's backyard, into a floral masterpiece.  With a garden cocktail theme, this wedding was polished, sophisticated, and breathtakingly simple.

Wedding Trend: Balloons

Whether it's for an engagement shoot, save the date, or your wedding day, balloons are popping up in a big way.  They're an excellent way to create vibrant, colorful photos or soft romantic ones, and most people find they're very budget friendly.  Love the idea but want to incorporate it into your wedding decor, we love this wedding ceremony idea.

Wedding Trends....Send Off

After the cake's been cut and you've danced the night away with your loved ones, comes the send off.  Where everyone gathers to wish you the best and say goodnight.  Here are some of our favorite send off options.  Things to wave: ribbons and signs.  Things to blow: bubbles.  Things to throw: confetti, flower petals, and balloons.  Things to depart in: a car or a boat (a la Juliette & Peter's wedding in Love Actually).  And things to light: sparklers and fireworks (like the ending in My Best Friend's Wedding).
