So its 12:30 in the a.m. and I should be sleeping having a before dawn wakeup call to be at my out of town location by 6:30. I should be but a neighbor has the consistant boom boom boom leaking from their respected home through my walls keeping me alert. What's a girl to do? Storm out angrily wailing about threatening to call the cops? Nope, did that last week and it didn't work...instead,I decided if this were to happen again I will just be productive until the boom boom boom stops and I can sleep. Here I am. Thinking in detail about details. Deciding it should be best to turn my grumpy tiredness into happy wedding details.
Well, here they are, some details I captured that I like minus some of the obvious (cake, dress, flowers, tux). It's nice to step back and look at some of the details that we hadn't noticed before. So much thought goes into it! I think these are note worthy.

For the guests: A polaroid and some props....keeps them entertained while formals and bride/groom portrait session is goin' down! They will love it! These folks did!

Live music for the ceromony? Yes please.

Something old....grandma's hanky or grandpa's Bible...or both.

This outfit for the ring bearer is perfect....easy breezy for the boy to wear.

A simple bridesmaid dress + broche = just enough!

Cute kids in the wedding gives the ultimate 'awweee' factor! You hear it every time
Personalized totes....Personalized anything, makes it very, er, personable.

A heartfelt thankyou tied to a heartfelt gift.


I think the Flower in the hair is just beautiful. free. delicate.
You need a lil something something to make you feel sassy.... I thought this was clever.
Cute buckets and tins are useful and cute. At least I think so!
Oops! How did that get in there?! I guess you could say location is a great detail!

Center pieces are perfect! The just bring so much life to a reception AND its something they set such a great tone for the evening!


Name tags.... I placed them just so but you get the idea...they are cute and for guests...extra special!
