I think this next wedding can be described in one word: FUN! To be fair, any wedding that involves peacock feathers is bound to be beautiful, but this is something else, let me tell you. Add in one gorgeous couple, a beautiful venue, fabulous photography from ArtPhotoSoul Photographers, and some major bling, and you know it’s going to be a fun night!
From the bride…
What (or who) helped you most in your planning process and/or on your wedding day?
I think what helped me the most in my planning process was all the research I did and all the wonderful wedding blogs/websites out there. I also discovered Pinterest a few months after I was engaged and totally loved it.
What was the most important thing to you when deciding who to work with for your wedding?
I wanted professional and trustworthy people without “breaking the bank”.
What was your inspiration for your wedding details and/or design?
I didn’t have a theme or specific style for my wedding at first, but I knew that I wanted an outside wedding/reception and kind of a “glam” feel to my wedding. I decided to go with fall colors, being that my wedding was set for November, but without using obvious colors like orange and brown. So I did some research and found jewel colors to be fall inspired. My fiance and I both loved the teal so I decided to pair it up with magenta, a combo I really loved. While searching for teal and magenta inspirations I came across peacock feathers. I fell in love with them and wanted to incorporate them in my wedding as subtle details. Through all my searches I also found crystals and chandeliers to be so beautiful and really wanted to incorporate them as well. I liked both details so much I decided to use them both. I ended up with a peacock/crystal inspired wedding.
What was your favorite thing about your wedding?
That is a tough one! There are so many favorite things, details, moments, etc, that I can’t just pin point one. I loved our venue, our vows, my wedding dress, the flower girls’ tutus, our “hora loca” , which means “crazy hour” (we had dancers and it made the party so fun!), our puzzle sign in book…endless list!
What is your best piece of advice for other brides?
I think the best piece of advice I could give a bride is to relax and enjoy the process, but most especially on the wedding day. I think sometimes we get too get carried away with details and logistics and have to constantly remind ourselves that all the planning and details are to ultimately marry the man of our dreams. On the wedding day, I urge all brides to simply forget about the details and simply enjoy the best day of your life. At that point there’s nothing you can do by worrying and stressing out. On my wedding day there were things and details that were not exactly as “planned”, but i chose to “move on” and just enjoy my day! At the end of the day all that mattered was that I was marrying my prince charming.
Don’t you just love all the bling? This wedding looks like it was SO fun!
