we've been collecting ideas and thoughts on this wedding for months (years?) but trying to pull it all together into a cohesive vision is tough. this is a first shot-- void of much color because we still haven't committed to a palette. we've thought about sage green and.... (ivory? gold? lavendar? brown? plum? suggestions? i really just don't know.) it's funny, because it's shaping up into a more formal affair than i had first thought it would be, and i'm totally fine with that. it's a big occasion, it should feel special. the vibe is something like " timeless elegance and bits of whimsy." classy without taking ourselves too seriously.

4. I can't remember where i got this. If you know, tell me and I'll give credit where it's due! Anyway, we could do something simple like this for cocktail hour tables, maybe in vintage juice glasses?

6. The wedding photo project, I'm thinking of ways to do something like this on the path from the terrace, which people will take between the cocktail hour and the reception.
