Wedding Season! Ceremony Decor

I love outdoor ceremonies, where the beauty of the space reflects the beauty of the couple's love. A great view can speak for itself, but these additional touches really make the ceremony special...

Chandeliers and candlelight used for a nighttime outdoor ceremony:




Hanging crystals and flowers from trees:






Rose petals to throw after the ceremony:



Beautiful aisle of bright rose petals

I think a combination of petals and sea glass in blues and greens would be beautiful

Flowers to define an altar:





Love these chairs and the flower balls:





Love the idea of hanging starfish/seashells on the aisle chairs:

Decorate pools with floating candles and flowers:

Wedding Season! Bouquets & Boutonnieres

I LOVE flowers, so of course I love the beautiful bouquets at a wedding. I love a mixture of flowers and bright colors in a loose arrangement. Exotic flowers, like orchids are my favorites. However, a full bouquet of red roses is always romantic. I also like adding little touches to the bouquet, like a hint of sparkle with crystal wrapped around the stems or hidden in the flowers.

This mixed with some additional color:














Not typically a fan of lighter bouquets, but this with orchids and touches of pink is breathtaking.


Love this mixture of roses and orchids.
