Behind the Scenes Wedding Planning with Bonnie


I don't usually post about a wedding that has not yet taken place.  But, Bonnie is such a wonderful bride to work with, I wanted to share with you some behind the scenes photos of what it "really" takes to plan a beautiful event.  And all of the work and thought that goes into designing a wedding ceremony and reception that is flawless.
Bonnie, her mother Kelly, and Grand Mama allowed me to tag along to their meeting with the fabulous Floral Designer Andy Boyles this past Saturday.  This is what we worked on.
Above is a stand that may perhaps show up for use at Bonnie's wedding.
A perfect compliment to Bonnie's design ideas.

Shimmery gold table cloths for guest tables.
Bonnie has the most wonderful ideas-not to mention great taste!
These are the table cloths that will be used for her reception.
(Not the green-look above the green)
Gold.


Can you imagine these great copper vessels atop the tables at Bonnie's reception?
Bonnie is going to have the most festive, fun, creative reception Birmingham will see this year!

Beautiful surroundings, lots of fun, lots of friends, who could ask for anything more!
