celebrations bursting with life
I was recently able to attend my cousin-in-law's wedding, and it was totally magical. The reception was in aunt mary's backyard- the same place we held ours, and she did an amazing job with decorating. She is so incredibly talented with details and putting things together and revamping stuff she finds- she really should be a wedding designer professionally. For her daughter's reception she hung strings of orchids all over, had beautiful wildflower arrangements, painted tons of animal statues bronze, hung crystal chandeliers from the trees, and even scavenged an old boat dock and converted it into a bridge in her front garden. seriously incredible. I'll share more photos I took after I have more time to go through them.
I was really excited to wear this dress to this wedding- the backdrop of the reception really beautifully compliments the details in the fabric, and the wedding party was wearing all cream, so I matched pretty alright. I love the little painted flowers and insects throughout the pattern on the dress, and the sleeve length is great.
The Bride looked super stunning, and I'll be posting photos I took of her for bridals, and from the reception later this week. her dress was super unique- you won't want to miss it.

Such a lovely dress! It reminds me of the movie Pleasantville...as if it's in the middle of being filled in with color!
