Her dress is so unique. Not many brides could pull that off, but she more than pulled it off! It’s perfect! These guests must have had a blast. I really like the vases on the tables… they almost look like they are frosted in a mocha platinum.

I love your blog!!! This post totally made my day! sooo pretty! I love the woven chargers and the purple glassware.
This makes me want to get married again and do it all differently. These colors are so inviting and joyous. How could anyone NOT have a great day at this event?
WOW!!! That’s rediculous! Seriously though, how did you not put up the crazy-awesome ice sculpture condiments table! COME ON!!! That’s amazing. LOVE the color. :-D
Love this palette AND these details!
Those colors are incredible – so pretty! PS – I loved listening to your interview on The Wedding Planning Audiocast! And thank you for the shout out. :)
Ah these colors are SO much fun!!!! Great use of differing vase heights on the table!!!
Wow, these colors make you feel happy. I’m so glad to find your blog, I love it! Thank you for the nice comments!! :)
I just stumbled upon your blog and WOW – what a great resource. AND amazing details! keep it up!!!
I love Marie’s work! She has always been a huge inspiration to me. LOVE the bold colors, hanging lanterns and glassware.
This is the most stunning use of purple/fuscia/pink in an event that I have ever seen. Not overly girly, the colour usage still gives off a classy, professional aesthetic that does not scream circus. Thank you for sharing such beautiful pictures.
