Back in August, a good friend of mine told me of a wedding he had recently attended, the wedding of his friend, a Brooklyn artist, to her hubby. He described the reception as the most intricately designed party he had ever been to or seen! The elaborate nature of this bouquet aligns with what I imagined when he told me of this celebration. :)

I have been told that destination weddings are “in.” I would venture to say weddings are not too different from real estate: It’s all about location, location, location!

Generally speaking, I am not big into the vintage wedding idea; however, I came across these charming vintage tin can floral arrangements on The Wedding Chicks and could not help but smile. I love them! Speaking of flowers, I am shopping at the Los Angeles Flower District some time this week. For any who live in or near the city, you should too!! BEST (really, the best) deals on flowers, ribbons, vases, and much more! Get there early :)

How inspired! Camille Styles uses a wooden plank as a table runner to create this rustic holiday look. I am a fan. 

As of current, table runners are my favorite design element! As simplistic as they may seem, table runners have the ability to entirely shift a design scheme, adding life, texture and color to what one might consider a lackluster table. You can find the burlap table runner featured above on Etsy by EAB Designs!
