A random yet lovely catalog came into my mailbox today. A perfect lunch break read :) Specializing in recycled home decor, At West End had some super cute outdoor decor. Not everything was my cup of tea, but the items above would be perfect for a wedding!! So let’s continue the reuse, recycle, reduce path into 2011!
So fresh and so clean in design. Love the idea and the colors! How cute would these be at a dessert table or used as props for an engagement session?! Yup, seed implanted in your head ;) Totally digging the creative and drool-worthy light of the photos! I see this hitting the wedding trend in 2010 and 2011! (I wish their ‘making images’ link was working to see the behind the scenes, hint hint!)

Yesterday, I photographed an elopement in Napa and was lucky enough to have the rain let up to get some gorgeous shots. I just HAD to post this photo of the bride’s bouquet…all white orchids. They draped oh-so romantically from her hands…this is all the peek you get for now!
While running around yesterday, I over heard a conversation between a mother and son on the bus. She was planning his birthday party and was just trying to locate balloon lights. I thought ‘interesting, good thing I eavesdropped!’ The balloon prop trend in engagement and wedding photos is everywhere so why not light things up with this new twist! Added bonus: battery powered and inflatable! I’d love to try it out, hint hint! More purchase info at link above.
The fall 2010 Bridal Market show had some amazing wedding fashions! One of my favs…Melissa Sweet’s Boho Chic Reverie collection featured an amazing straw fedora hat with pretty details. Perfect for a sunny, outdoor ultra low key wedding or that hip short dress. More pics at the link above.
