A Little Piece of Elegance: Chandeliers

An outdoor wedding does not mean you have to sacrifice some of the elegant features of a ballroom. Chandeliers are the perfect decor piece that brings the indoors outside. This piece of decor costs a pretty penny, but installing one at the ceremony structure, or a few at the reception goes a long way.

Chair Decor Galore!

Chair decor is often overlooked at the wedding, but the ideas are limitless. With a little creativity you can transform a chair into a gorgeous piece of your wedding decor. Sashes, ribbons, signs and chair covers come in different material, textures and colors that you can manipulate and mix and match to compliment your wedding vision. Here are some of my favorite looks for chairs for your ceremony and reception:

Modern Weddings

Every bride and groom has a wedding style that best suits their personality.

Here are some contemporary styles for the modern bride and groom. From geometric shapes, to gold glitter, here are some of my contemporary favorites. Enough said. Enjoy!

1. The color combination of black and white is a classic look, and always modern. Adding gold can only make it better.

2. Cakes with an interesting, yet simple, designs  in cool colors are perfect for the bride who doesn't want a traditional white cake.

3. Simplistic decor with pops of color don't overwhelm guests but brings focus to important details.

4. Table runners are a perfect way to add color and print to your reception.

5. Lounges have become extremely popular; Creating spaces where guests can take a break from dancing, relax and socialize.

6. Geometric shapes should be applied in small doses because that is all it takes for the design to make a large impact.

7. Square, rectangular or any place setting not circular is the new look. Add a napkin in a cool print for the final touch!

8. Skip the round tables and go for estate seating instead. The picture says enough!

9. Mixing colors and prints creates picture-perfect decor. Chevron, Greek Tree, Trellis or a Moroccan Wall print are just a few modern prints to consider.

10. DIY backdrops for the ceremony or reception are that personal touch that you will always remember.

Blue and Coral Inspiration

If you love spring pastels, then consider the combination of light blue and coral for your wedding colors. Add touches of the color within your wedding party attire, decor, and even your food. You don't have to have both colors together all the time. Instead, keep the bridesmaids in coral and the groomsmen in blue; or the wedding ceremony with touches of blue and coral lighting for the reception. Here are some ideas for incorporating these colors into your special day.
