Modern Wedding Thoughts

I'm a 24 year old wedding planner and this is my inspiration blog! It's just a collection of things I find inspiring and beautiful! You can follow... or not! Doesn't matter to me! I am also an aspiring writer and the creator of Inspiration Dice (a recent kickstarter success that I am now selling on etsy.com!) You can check them out at the link below!<3

There isn't a darn thing wrong with wearing flats for your wedding. Not every woman is comfortable in heels, and to feel your best on your wedding day you need to make sure you are comfortable. Just make sure that you are wearing flats that go with the look of your wedding. No bride should be in flip flops for a formal wedding... Try a structured elegant flat like the ones pictured above! They are elegant and they wont kill your feet!

I love this orchid bouquet! It feels rich and elegant while still being simple and light.

These pieces by Gibson Bespoke Designs are fun, edgy and incredibly elegant! Quite a few of the pieces in their online shop are art deco inspired and all of them are wonderful!

Allergic to flowers? Keep reading...

While wandering around etsy.com tonight, I happened to find this lovely little shop called Flower Decoration. My first thought when I saw the shop was, "These flowers are pretty... But so what? People can buy their flowers locally." Upon closer inspection, I discovered something that astounded me. All of the flowers in this shop... are fake. They are made of crepe paper! I didn't even realize! I was looking at these perfect flowers, thinking they were the real thing!

Look at the detail on the peonies! They are perfect! The first thing I thought was, "I need to share these with my followers." How many brides are stuck with tacky, poorly made fake flowers just because they or their fiance are allergic to real ones? 

Your allergies don't have to affect your flowers choices! And even if you're NOT allergic, there is a HUGE bonus to these flowers... You get to keep them... Forever. They get to stay looking fresh, (as long as you're gentle with them,) and they can stay in your home and remind you of your beautiful wedding!

Check out the etsy shop at http://www.etsy.com/shop/FlowerDecoration ... It will be worth your time.

Designer Ersa Atelier has an incredible eye for drama and detail. Her dresses have texture and flare. Many of her dresses have intricate hand embroidery, Swarovski crystal and pearl beading, and an elegant style with a modern silhouette.

I am drooling over these dresses from Jenny Packham's fall 2013 collection. Her collection is very art deco / modern. I LOVE the variety, the texture and the draping in her pieces.

This dress, by Designer Austin Scarlett, is just stunning. He really has an eye for the elegant and unique. Even his most simple designs have a touch of something extra and delicious. I also love his dress called "Gardenia," although I do think it takes the right kind of bride to pull that one off...

Go look at his his Fall 2013 collection and decide for yourself!  http://www.austinscarlett.com/collection
