Lhasa + Adam Garden Wedding

I cannot get enough of garden weddings.  This is an afternoon wedding in a farm in California. I love the bride's  simple below-the-knee dress, the invitation card, the orange + peach motif, the quilted tent, the peach flower boutonniere, the rustic table settings, and the beautiful green surroundings bathing in the soft sunlight.

Leslie + Jamie's Green Wedding via Green Wedding Shoes

I've just been over at Green Wedding Shoes and I cannot resist sharing this.  These stunning photos are by Mark  Brooke Photography.  I am so in LOVE with the concept of this wedding.  It's gorgeous, unique and earth-friendly in many ways.  Oh, and you've got to hear the story behind their wedding invitation design!

Have you thought about using a bouquet made out of used fabric in place of real flowers? This couple (along with their friends and families) have created their flower decorations out of upholstery samples from a local store.  Instead of using disposable paper towels, they bought kitchen towels which can be reused after the wedding.  You can read more green wedding ideas here as Leslie (the lovely bride) talks about their big day.

People On Your Wedding - Behind the Lens of Dino Lara

I discovered Dino Lara's Photography while searching for Filipino photographers and I love his work! Aside from capturing beautiful moments of the bride and groom, I love that the photographer also turns his eye to the people (families, friends, acquaintances) who have shared their special day.  These are some of my favorite shots from Dino Lara's blog that were obviously taken as they happen!

DIY Paper Wedding Decoration Ideas

I think DIY projects are great but you need to make sure about two things: first, do you have enough time to  finish  on time? and second, can you get the help you need?  If you answer yes to these two questions, then go ahead and start planning the project you choose. Where to look for ideas?  I love these paper wedding decoration ideas over at Martha Stewart Weddings.  Here are my top three picks:

* paper table skirt *

* paper pinwheels *

 * paper garland canopy*
