Jenna & Jon: Brooklyn Wedding

Here's a real wedding and another favorite of mine featured in Martha Stewart Weddings Summer 2010. It is adorable! Their wedding has a bit of a circus inspired theme.


A beautiful bouquet of peonies, tea roses, and plumes.


The couple wore a picture of their deceased grandparents. He wore this pocket watch and I love her heart locket!



The couple used cupcakes instead of a cake.

The signature drink, the Pink Elephant. Fruit juices, vodka, and grenadine.

Circus-themed invitations.

The couple bought these ticket stubs on ebay. It looks like a cake, but is in fact Styrofoam.

A kiss on a carousel.

See all the photos of this cute wedding here.

I LOVE the colour scheme of this wedding! I am on the search for some wedding inspiration for my sister and I will definitely be forwarding this her way! Thanks so much!

So so beautiful.
A body of water, a bridge, a beautiful couple in love, beautiful dresses. How much more romantic could this be?
I love it.




LOVE!

This is so charming and I LOVE the peonies in her bouquet.

How adorable is the photo of the locket??

I'm kind of getting tired of the whole cupcake thing. Not just in this specific case, but in general. It's a little yawn-tastic already.

This collection is the epitome of the modern romance. Happy Monday;-)

What a fun wedding! Loving the individual mismatching plates with cupcakes on and the balloons!

My there are so many wonderfully creative weddings out there today! So much choice!

Hope you've had a great weekend!? While the beach looks nice here in Sydney (we still get lots of sunny days in winter) it's still freezing so you won't catch me in the water until October!!

California must be rocking about now! :-)
