So if anyone has been following my blog I have been doing a series of posts on “Wedding Planning” the first post was Finding the Perfect Dress, than came Accessories….Now I just found this amazing wedding story on another favorite blog of mine called Southern Weddings. They are an amazing wedding Magazine company and I just love the blog they have. They always have amazing wedding ideas and amazing featured “Weddings” from real weddings.
This wedding was featured on their blog here. The beautiful images are by Hudson Photography. Love them!
Ok now to the “Wedding Details Part” why do I love this wedding spread?
First off it is unique. The venue is very has an old warehouse feel. I love how they transformed the space into their own. The details of this wedding seem very simple and that is why I love it. They used simple white table cloths. The center pieces are also very simple looking but they pop out with some amazing lighting. Keep in mind a little can go a long way, specially when you have some amazing lighting going on.
Other details: The Asian Paper Lanterns are easy to do and easy to find and reasonable in price. You can find these at party stores or stores like World Market. I am guessing they are even cheaper when purchased in bulk online!
Some online options:
The sheer fabric draped ties everything together! Fabric is getting to be very expensive but not if you buy in bulk or on the sale rack at Vogue fabrics (a little secret treasure of mine) Vogue fabrics is in Chicago and a great place to buy fabric supplies for a wedding. They have a whole room just for sale fabrics. Last time I was in town I got 8 yards at $1.64 a yard on clearance!
Unique lighting situations to transform the reception: Ikea! Take a trip to Ikea and check out some unique and affordable lighting. They have everything from modern easy to install lights, outdoor lanterns or other outdoor hanging lights. Target has some really unique string lights right now. Think practically as well…what is going to 1. look great at your wedding/fit the theme and 2. look amazing after your wedding in your backyard or home!
Also- keep your eye out for estate sales for some beautiful chandeliers!
Well folks this is all for today have a happy Thursday!
