One of my favorite parts about what I do is the amazing wedding inspiration and ideas that wedding professionals create. The beautiful thing is that this inspiration is a great way to see new, unique concepts brought to life, with the aim of inspiring brides to go outside of the box. As a continuation of my Best of 2014 posts, and since inspiration is one of my favorite things to share, I absolutely had to gather 20 of my favorite wedding inspiration features from this past year. This inspiration is unique, innovative, and you absolutely MUST be sure to take a look at each and every feature!

This stunning blush and gold wedding is timeless, elegant, and full of romance. I love this couple’s elegant color palette, pairing a pale blush with gold and gray, and their escort cards and favors, all captured by amazing photographer Kellie Hetler.

I love the elegant style of this wedding- and the sweetheart table might be one of my new favorites! A sequin linen and beautiful florals are the perfect combination, don’t you think?

Are you planning on having a sweetheart table? Or will you be having a head table? We’d love to hear!
