Intimate weddings allow for a variety of fun seating options! We love these comfortable couches, chairs and loveseats as guest seating for your smaller wedding. These seats will make our guests feel right at home with these cozy chairs.

With a smaller wedding it is simple to splurge on things that are the most important - like cake! This dessert table with homemade pies, and cupcakes is perfect for an intimate wedding. You could get your grandma to make her famous apple and cherry pie, maybe your aunt makes killer cupcakes! When your family and friends can add their own personalization to your wedding it makes the day that much more intimate and memorable.

 If you are having a destination wedding with only both of your sets of parents, a simple decoration and a couple of your closest friends and family makes the perfect setting for a simple, romantic and intimate wedding. You can celebrate with the ones you keep closest to you and they can share in the moment as well!

Homemade wedding favors are the best! Whip up your best batches of cookies in place of a candy bar for a more personalized gift for your guests. Yum! Or make your own infused alcohol or limoncello with creative tags.

Geometric Weddings

Wedding themes are getting harder and harder to come up with. Black and white, peacock, and floral inspired weddings are a thing of the past! Take a step into the future and take a glance at our new favorite, geometric weddings.

The geometric theme isn't just for math wizards and puzzles but for the modern bride. Here, we show you how to incorporate this unique theme into your big day.

From menu cards, invitations and cake to crazy flower vases and terrariums, the possibilities are endless! Lighting can even be a great way to accommodate for your geometric needs. Last weekend, we planned a wonderful wedding and the bride brought these awesome 3D lanterns to decorate her ceremony and reception areas.

This amazing wedding arch and backdrop (pictured below) is the perfect alternative to the tradition wedding arch. Think about how lovely it would look lit up at night glowing with candles...

The wedding cake is a great place to showcase your geometric theme. 3D shapes of different colors and sizes will be sure to wow your guests at your creative genius!

Instead of flower centerpieces, how about geometric cake pops? Your guests will never have seen something so personalized!

These cool hanging paper shapes would be even better with dim lighting hanging over each table. Make those shapes glow!

Something Blue

Something old, something new, something borrow and... SOMETHING BLUE! Many brides like to keep this tradition alive for their big day but also seem to struggle with what they should use for each good luck charm!

 

It is considered to be simpler to include something old, say your grandmother's necklace, something new could be your wedding dress or new shoes, something borrowed could be a friend or relative's earrings! But when it comes to something blue, the ideas are limitless! Include a small blue heart from a loved one's shirt, have your bridesmaids write cute notes on the bottom of your shoes in blue ink or even use delicate blue hair accessories for that added pop of color!

This wedding tradition came from an Old English rhyme "Something olde, something new, something borrowed, something blue, a sixpence in your shoe" and are considered to be good luck charms when the bride wears or carries these items with her on her wedding day.

Something old represents continuity; something new offers optimism for the future; something borrowed symbolizes borrowed happiness from perhaps a loved one or friend; something blue stands for purity, love, and fidelity; and a sixpence in your shoe is a wish for good fortune and prosperity which is usually not included in wedding talk.
