influences

My sister is getting married in about two weeks, so i've got wedding on the brain lately.
I recently asked her to send me some pictures that influenced her style for the wedding and reception.

she's got about 100+ white milk glass vases and bowls and she's going to have the florist do some free form arrangements on the tables. i do like the idea of having a contrasting colored 'napkin' under it since the table will be mostly white. I think it's going to look very nice.

my sister wants to have some 'unique' aspects to her wedding (don't we all) and one of these unique things is going to have a colorful bouquet instead of the traditional white on white look for the bride. I like these flowers, they are very summery and appropriate for a July wedding in wisconsin.


i won't show a picture of her dress because that's not my place to do. Maybe after the wedding i'll post a few. But knowing what her dress looks like i thought it would be neat for her to do a more vintage 20s inspired veil and she told me that she had bought a birdcage veil from a shop in etsy.com

I remember my uniqueness for my own wedding was more along the lines of gothic punk. I wore white fishnets and black knee high doc martens during the reception. My parents still think i'm a nuts :)
