A very intimate ceremony....

As soon as you meet Kristin and Eric you know they are meant to be! They choose to have a very intimate wedding ceremony, and when I say intimate I mean it was just the two of them. Staying busy with work and travel they opted for a Tuesday morning ceremony at the breathtaking Bella Donna Chapel. Thank you Jonathan Ivy Photography for the beautiful pictures.

Floral was by the wonderful Holly Viles
 

We were so honored to be one of the few apart of Kristin and Eric's very special day. However, it would not have happened without the following vendors.

A Beautiful Backyard Wedding!

Courtney and David have  quite the story! This adorable couple met while on vacation with their families. After meeting only one night, they began a long-distance relationship with David living in Louisiana and Courtney in Texas.... and the rest is history! :) They had an intimate ceremony and tented reception at Courtney's parents in Aubrey, Texas.


As you probably already know, I LOVE first looks!
 
 
 
As always, "thank you" to the amazing team of vendors that made this possible! And "thank you" Courtney and David for allowing us to be a part of your special day!

Color Blocking Galore

Who doesn’t love all the fabulous bright and lively colors especially in events? Color blocking is a huge trend this Summer in weddings! Color blocking is “the pairing of chunks of contrasting colors.” There are so many different ways to incorporate this trend into your special day, you can add a splash of color to your wedding dress, cake, bouquets, or even your groomsmen’s bowties.


Absolutely love the color blocking for the aisle

 
We hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Guest Post: Trends in Wedding Floral and Decor for 2013

We have decided to switch things up a little bit and let you hear from some other professionals in the "industry." First, we are going to feature Holly of Holly Viles Events and Decor. If you would like to hear from a certain category or would like to submit a guest post we would love to hear from you!



"I strongly believe your wedding should be a true reflection of your personality, trends aside.  But, I also know the value in looking to what is current in the industry so my designs will continue to stay fresh and relevant.  Although many brides come to me with a very clear vision of what they are picturing for their wedding décor and flowers, others may enjoy looking at trends to help them decide the perfect décor for their wedding day.

When seeking out the current trends for floral and wedding décor, I tend to go straight to the runway.  New York bridal market showcased gowns this year that will definitely have an impact on floral design for 2013.   Here are a few of my favorite trends forecasted for 2013 based off the gowns on the runway. 


BOLD Colors

Vera Wang and Oscar de la Renta went BOLD this year with lots of RED!   I personally can't imagine a large number of brides rushing out to purchase a red gown!  But with all of the red on the runway it is a strong indicator that bold colors will be seen next year, floral and décor included.   Think oranges, hot pink and reds when considering your wedding colors.



Vintage and Old Hollywood Glamour

Vintage is here to stay for a while longer, which makes me very happy!  However, “vintage” can be interpreted in different ways.  I predict less “rustic vintage” and more vintage GLAM!  The runway featured lace gowns adorned with lots of bling which translates to vintage and romantic touches in your wedding décor.  Think birdcage veils, feathers, lots of bling and crystal accents.   Dolly, the 51' Chevy Bel Air pictured below is a local celeb so ask about renting her for your wedding transportation!



Metallics

We also saw metal on the runway for 2013 brides.  Lots of beautiful golds, silvers, and pearly accents.  With metallic colors you could go bold with your wedding colors choosing to pair the metallics with red or black.   Or you could keep it softer and more romantic with creams and blush tones.  I am personally in love with blush and cream floral mixed with the metallic gold. 



I hope you enjoyed hearing about a few of my favorite trends for 2013!  Beauty is in the eye of the beholder so whatever you decide, stay true to your own personal style and you can not go wrong!  Which leads me to my next blog posting.....  How do you identify your own personal style for your wedding?  Stay tuned!"
