Inspiration


I was never the type of person who spent hours thinking about my dream wedding as a child. I never kept scrapbooks, never followed celebrity weddings, never even paid attention to why the whole world is obsessed with Vera Wang. Never paid attention to engagement rings - it just didn't interest me. For me, planning my wedding is something that is going to have to start completely from scratch, and I need to start asking myself what the inner child in me has always wanted, and what the adult me still desires.

I find it impossible to even begin thinking about where and when I'll have our wedding until we can really decide what type of wedding we are after. Some key points we're after:
  • Keep the guest list small
  • Escape city life - do something in nature, or at least in a venue open to lots of natural light
  • Decorate with a ton of candles and gorgeous flowers for a more romantic feel
  • Simple color palette
  • Very DIY feel; nothing to stuffy or fancy feeling
  • No black tie!
This will continuously evolve. But at least we have a starting point.
