Children's Art

For a light hearted moment, being inspired by children art is a great canvas of inspiration.
The Bride.To walk down aisle, a white A line will do with a yellow veil. Paint silk shoes in paint in a child like design. Taking drawings and making paper flowers for the bouquet completes the look.
A flower bouquet is presented to the bride at the end of the ceremony,yellow tea roses in round form with a colorful blue,red, and green ribbions.
Invitation. A white invitation in yellow print. A red ribbion at top completes the look. An inner envelope of blue with a simple white invitation.
The Ceremony. Ribbions in the Sky by Stevie walks the bride down the aisle. A poem, a song. Very simple vows. A first toast. Your first kiss. Bubbles walks you back the aisle. Your first meal is done at a private spot as the reception flows for cocktail. A tasting and dessert will be served at the reception.
The Cake. Two tier cake. Child like drawing on the side of the top tier only. Fondant ribbons of yellow,red, and green is the topper of the cake.
The Reception. Centerpiece,gerber daisies in white vases, yellow and red.
Favors, mini cupcakes completes the look.

Runway Bride

An another classic wedding movie favorite. Great inspiration for a great and classic wedding for the bride.
The Bride. The bride wears an ivory off shoulder dress with a veil that has white beads on it. Then a touch of pink on the shoes, Down the aisle with a classic country song,musical notes on the ivory aisle runner. A bouquet of ivory roses and white beads in a round form. Then we add a tiny horseshoe charm within the bouquet.
The Ceremony. So we have the vows,a song or two, all in the soul of country music. Then we have a guitar to play during the vows. We have a reading which are also lyrics from another song. At the end, the bride gets a pair of cow boy boots. Taking the Movie and playing it, you go up the aisle.
The Reception. White roses with yellow tea roses. Then we have a cocktail hour meets bbq mini bites. Then we move dinner. We have the meat,salad,potatoe. A deepert of fruit base pie. Then the bride wears a pair of sneakers.
The Cake. The cake,two tiers in white. Yellow dots of icing on the side. Then as a topper. There is a pair of sneakers with a pair of glasses.
At the end, a braclet is given that spells out forever.

Love is a gift...

Bride's Wars

One of my favorite movies in which we have common n theme as we continue into the wedding season. Competion.

To set the day, white invites with yellow or gold ink. We give the guest a chance to make some decisions with a small card as a planner. For the parents, a song at the door a singing card with their invites. From the invite to the day, lot of whites with yellow. I found one yellow wedding dress on themerrybride.com for a formal day. A monogrammed white aisle runner with the letters in gold and yellow. The flower basket is simple little gold baskets.
The Reception. The reception has glass or gold candelabras for the centerpiece. A dual of food for each course. Then two flavored cupcakes as a dessert. The wedding cake in white witih yellow flowers as a topper. Place cards are tiny mirrors. The film pictures of the two girls are at the guest sign in table.
Special touches from the theme. A floral pin in the hair is precious. A duet sung at the reception. Your best could walk you down the aisle.  A strange bluish green hair wig dancer entertains the crowd in a classy manner. Then there is lemon drop martini favors from accenttheparty.com..
In the meantime,put your feet, for a mini wedding break to watch the movie.

The Garden

It is spring. The weather is nice and gorgeous. It has been like a great art painting on the good days. It has been very inspirational as we have entered into wedding season.
Be inspired by the season.
The Invitation. Green ink on white paper. We add an old school touch of a floral ribbon at the top of the invite. Do you have a favorite floral scent? I would use on the back of the invite for a personal touch.
The Ceremony. Greenery in two pots on either side of a garden arch is an earthy statement for the front of the ceremony. On the arch, bring in lilac with branches and greenery. Then little miniature wreaths on the pews complete your ceremony look.
The Bride. She is wearing a tea length white dress with green shoes with a colored green veil.A bouquet of presentation bouquet of lillac,ivy, and baby breath is carried down the aisle. An emerald necklace is presented to her during the ceremony.
The Reception. So we enter into potted trees but for fun,add vegetables at the base of the trees with flowers. For the centerpiece, broccoli in the center with tall vases of lilac on either side. Then there is a vegetable base cocktail hour with a fruit base signature cocktail.  Pop music mixes with dance tunes. Then current radio beats dances you into the night.
The Cake. Two tier cake. It is white cake with green umbrella topper.

The Budget

I know it may seem like a dirty word but it is not. No,no one wants to mix money with wedding. It has to be done.

When? In the beginning, we must plan for the budget. It should be the third thing on your to do list. So start early. I would not get discouraged. From a wedding for two in jeans to large affair, a wedding is a sweet celebration.
How? From tech apps to old school pen and paper, there are plenty of methods to get your budget correct. The Knot,online, a wedding website still has the best wedding budget checklist for free. You can even use an accounting base program.
The Rules? The rules used to be simple. The bride's family paid for the expenses. Times has changed. So the couple may pay without the parents. The bride do pay for their own wedding. Then there is also the family affair. It should be a real number and not a movie one.
Cuts? There are many ways to cut the expenses of a wedding. Wedding favors us expense that many people will not notice. Wedding flowers are great but can be supplemented by candles or glass. Renting items or dress saves you a great deal.
Law? Everything should be writing,who pays what. Cancelation of the wedding is a sour subject. It may happen. You should figure how the money is returned.  A wedding account with wedding insurance is sound advice for some brides.
So,take a moment and a deep breath to know, it may take a million dollars for ano event but not so much for a moment...

So it is April. I hope you are having a great spring. Make sure you enjoy the beauty of the season for a moment.
