The Brown Wedding!!!!

One of my dearest friends got married this past weekend and not only was I a bridesmaid (yay!), she gave me full reign to style the event!!! I could not have been more excited…It was a win-win for both of us… she gets a free wedding stylist without the hassle of worrying about everything that goes into a wedding and I got to test my hand at wedding styling…Plus I now have one more beautiful wedding to add to my event styling portfolio!!!


For the ‘ceremony tree’ I hung glass votives w/ white ribbon…they looked so pretty all lit up at dusk and into the evening (didn’t get a picture of that! Boo!)…





Here is the little outdoor seating area…we did custom pillows in her colors, and then made these ‘yarn balls’ to suspend w/ clear string…




And while the professional photographer was snapping photos of the couple, I managed to get this one...


Here’s the gift area I setup near the entry….Bailee had the big yarn-covered “B” (for her new last name, Brown) and I made the flower for it and placed it w/ more pillows in her colors…


And then we hung a cute chandelier above the gift table…


Here is the menu I made...

...the cake table w/ tissue balls (def not the best pic)

…and the 2nd chandelier (hung above bride & groom’s table)…

And this is the dresser I refinished for Bailee for the wedding…
