I have long been a fan of using baby's breath as the primary florals of a wedding day. And after seeing these pictures, why wouldn't you want to!?
The bridesmaids bouquets were beautiful heaps of baby's breath. Baby's breath also adorned each of the pews at the ceremony. What a soft flower that has an undoubtedly beautiful effect.
I would like for all of you to say hello to one of the most beautiful wedding dresses I have ever seen. Oh hello, whimsy ruffles!
I cannot decided if I'm more in love with the dress, or the incredible jacket that accompanies it. I'd say it's a toss up.
Either way, the dress and the jacket make for a stunning combination. I cannot seem to get over the copious amounts of darling ruffles.
I'd say that this qualifies as having quite the lovely train. 
Every bride should feel a little sassy in her wedding dress. I'd say this dress does the trick.
As seen on this post at the utah bride blog. Chris and I purchased the most beautiful yellow mums this week to welcome autumn with open arms. Fall weddings have always been my favorite and our photographer, nicole green recently shot a beautiful fall wedding with the most divine flowers. I just had to share. 
Stunning. And then some.
The boutonniere, it's not half bad either. In fact, I am in love.
And the bride's shoes were quite possibly the cutest gold flats I have seen in a while. Perfect for an early fall wedding.
Chris often asks me "How much do you love me?" For the longest time I would stretch out my arms as far as they would go and say, "Thhhhhis much." To which he would tease me by saying, "That's it?!?!" He would then pout until I assured him that I love him very very much. And then, one day, I found the perfect card to give to him {which now hangs on our fridge for him to reference anytime he needs some reassurance}:
"All the stars in the sky and all the shells on the shore...if you counted them up, I'd still love you more."
Today, we are celebrating our one year anniversary and I just cannot get over how lucky I am to have him in my life. I love you b. xoxoxo, wifey.

You can, and should, make your own bouquets & boutonnières for your wedding. There, I said it. I wish I would have done it and you shouldn't have the same regret. So listen up my little crafty readers and see how one bride {Brittni from papernstitch} did it herself.
A few simple raw {and beautiful!} materials were ordered from Whole Foods, assembled {above} and turned into a stunning bouquet {below}.
You can see the complete step-by-step instructions/tutorial here and her wedding post here at 100 layer cake. Get to it!A couple years ago, I made my Mom pull her wedding dress out of the closet and show it to me. It was actually her mother's wedding dress that she also was able to wear. Talk about a beautiful heirloom worn by two women I love!
I, however, was not too keen on wearing it on my wedding day. And I didn't want to selfishly chop it up with scissors to make a garter or add part of it to my dress/veil/bouquet wrap. So, back in the closet it went.
This is what I should have done:
Pretty Bride displayed both her mother's and her mother-in-law's bridal gowns at her reception. What a lovely way to recognize both women! I am sure that the each mother, and the guests, loved the added detail.
You can find the rest of Pretty Bride's reception recap here.
