College Football Inspired Wedding Ideas

Since it is my FAVORITE time of the year, college football season, I thought it would be fun to get inspired for wedding decor based on the top football teams in the nation. So I am going to use the top 5 teams from the BCS standings from October 19th (of course I just love the fact that my GATORS are #1):

#1 Florida

#2 Alabama

#3 Texas

#4 Boise State

#5 Cincinnati

So get your game face on and brace yourself to get inspired by the nation's top college football teams!!!!

A Big Thank You

We just received this oh so sweet thank you note from one of our brides and we just had to share.....

Hi Jen and Jenna,

Steve and I just got back from our honeymoon, and I wanted to tell you how much we appreciated all you did for us. The wedding was amazing and went just as I had it in my head. Which was a surprise because something usually goes wrong. If anything did we didn't know about it, you two were heaven sent. All of our guests keep raving about how it was the best wedding they've been to in a long time. And the choir was a huge hit, it was more than I expected,I got chills when the whole congregation started to sing along!

We can't wait to see the pictures!

You two worked your fannies off , thanks again for all the hard work!

Love, Julie Heiden

Yellow makes the world a better place!

Guess what color has been a huge trend for 2009 & has made its way into many ceremony and receptions for 2010?
YELLOW!

I just love the fun, unique ways you can incorporate yellow as either your main color or just an accent to your wedding. Yellow has been a popular wedding color throughout the year and will continue to be favored during 2010. It's great because it can take your beach or outdoors wedding to another level with the bright, vibrant color or can bring warmth to your indoor reception decor.

Here are some great ways to jazz up your wedding decor with using this fantastic color!

Creating a beautiful reception for your guests begins at your table linens. Beautiful table linens are essential to your wedding and create the masterpiece that will leave your guests and you remembering your wedding forever.

Fall is the perfect time of year to really create drama to your tablescapes by adding linens in deep hues of browns, reds, tans, and oranges. Below are some of my favorite fall linens that I hope will inspire you.
