Real Weddings: Amber & Greg

This beautiful couple from San Francisco created a simply elegant outdoor wedding among the oak and pine trees at an all organic restaurant in Topanga, CA.


The groom is also a photographer who shot all the photos that served as the table numbers.


Stay tuned for more photos tomorrow!

The beautiful photography is the work of Clarie Barrett.

What I like...Ribboned Mirrors

While browsing Poppy Talk I saw these one-of-a-kind mirrors created by Ashley Rush of Rowan's Room. Each one is lovingly handcrafted from an antique cabinet door (which makes this an eco-friendly item). Most of these doors are over 100 years old, and they reflect those years through their unique beauty.

Here's an idea of how to display these unique mirrors.

Succulent Succulents

Succulents make the perfect eco-friendly option for flowers. They don't take much water and can be replanted after your wedding, so nothing is wasted. And there's something so romantic in the idea that you can walk into your garden and be reminded of your special day.

Succulents come in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors.  They are a perfect choice in summer heat, but are great in the fall and winter too, when many flowers are out of season.
