I wish I could take credit for this awesome idea but I can’t. These awesome wedding details are from Ryan and Rachel’s wedding that I photographed last Saturday! Not only was this wedding perfectly coordinated, it was so simple! The tables were lined with burlap table runners and decorated with various antique vases and flowers. She coordinated Menus and wine bottles and that was it! The centerpieces were gorgeous and so simple. I’m sure my Daddy is going to read this and say “So…why can’t your centerpieces be simple?” Haha That’s a good question. I just have this idea in my head of what I want my details to look like and unfortunately they aren’t very simple. Daddy actually already realizes this because I currently have a sample centerpiece set up in our sunroom! … complete with teal poms hanging from the ceiling fan.  I just wanted to see what they would look like! ha! My whole family saw what I had done and they just laughed and rolled their eyes. Oh wedding planning.

.

Anyway! Back to Rachel and Ryan’s wedding.  I loved the yellow and sea foam green color scheme and Rachel tied everything together so well. I can’t wait to post their wedding and show you how she set the maid of honor and best man apart from the rest of the bridal party! So fun!

.

The most impressive detail were the escort cards.  The personalized escort cards each had a different pattern that coordinated with their coinciding table. For instance, if you were placed at table 2, your escort card pattern would match the pattern on the wine bottle at Table 2. WOW. Talk about a tedious job!  It was worth it! Ryan and Rachel’s wedding is a perfect example of a simple and yet well coordinated wedding. Check out these details!

Custom Fans anyone?!

Thanks for reading!
