brown and green wedding - without a camera

on saturday we were invited to a wedding. i thought of everything, the hand made card, the extra pair of shoes (flats) so i could dance, extra hair pins just in case, lip stick for after i'm done eating, etc.  but i forgot my camera. unbelievable.

but since everything was so pretty - the colors (brown and green, my favorites), the bride's gorgeous lacy dress, the bridal party's cute outfits, and the decoration crafted by the bride and groom themselves - i thought i'd give you at least an idea of the general style and color scheme of this wedding.

what stood out to me the most at the wedding i attended was how they worked with a beautiful contrast of materials: natural elements such as branches, twigs, and the "hats" of acorns combined with ribbons, sparkly glass beads and shiny marbles. i took a few home with me so i could at lest share something with you. don't tell anyone :)

there was even a candy bar with paper bags waiting to be filled with candy. it was every kids dream... and all the big kids like me snuck around it too!
