At first glance, my thought was, “wow! look at how bright and vibrant those flowers are!”. But, upon closer examination, I was surprised to find that the gorgeous flowers were made out of clay.

DK Designs creates custom floral pieces from clay. Her attention to detail is truly awe-inspiring. The texture, color, and shape of each flower is so life-like that it could easily pas as real. While DK Designs’ creations will cost you a pretty penny, the fact that you can keep your one of a kind creation forever is well worth it.

I totally just sounded like an advertisement! I promise this is not a sponsored post – I just really am impressed by these flowers!

Awe-struck. Smitten. Amazed. Just a few words that describe how I feel about this amazing wedding that took place at the Aberglasney Gardens in Carmarthenshire, UK. The uber-talented photographers behind these stunning pictures were the husband and wife team: o&c Photography. Enough jabbering . On to the pictures!

While I can not read a single word from the website (Dom in Stil) where I found this awesome table setting, I am completely smitten by the design. I love the way that a newspaper or book is incorporated with the two tones of orange – tangerine and peach. If you are looking to recreate this look for your wedding, make sure you laminate the paper you are planning to wrap around the cake so it doesn’t get saturated and look messy.

Using succulents in weddings is a big trend right now. I really like the unique textural aspect that succulents add to bouquets, boutonnieres, and centerpieces. If you want to use succulents in your wedding, it is a good idea to hire a florist as they are not easy to arrange. Flora Grubb Gardens located in San Francisco are pros at arranging succulents. I am completely enamored by their work.
