Happy August! Today, 8-7-13, is the three year Anniversary of the best day of my life ♥ My husband, Jason & I got married in the First Landing Chapel on Fort Story in Virginia Beach, VA with a reception that followed at the Lesner Inn Catering Club. Besides getting to marry my best friend, three years ago was also the start of figuring out my true passion. Planning our wedding was my first large event & the beginning of the path to starting Love Your Day Designs. So today I am sharing some of my favorite design details from our big day!
Planning, Design & Decor: yours truly | Wedding Photographer: Beard Photography | Detail Photography: Amanda Hedgepeth Photography | Flowers: Little Creek NEX | Cake: Gourmet Bake Shoppe | Bridal Gown: Brides Against Breast Cancer | Bridesmaid Dresses: David’s Bridal | Groomsmen Tuxes: Men’s Warehouse
I made the programs into fans for guests to help cool off b/c it was HOT!
Jewel stickers & silver borders helped servers differentiate between the two main plated dish preferences
Special place setting at the head table
I wanted my guestbook to be unique so I found a wedding flower coffee table book for guests to sign on their favorite pages
Jason & I love to travel & explore together so instead of table numbers, each table was a city
For favors, I created a candy table w/a variety of goodies to take home
Jason has a pilot’s license so my bridesmaids helped me make about 200 candy airplanes for a personal touch
My main color was green but I wanted the bridesmaids to stand out so this coral/pink color was the perfect compliment
Grey/Silver, one of my “nuetral” colors, looked great on the guys!
And I look forward to many MANY more Anniversaries :)
♥ Rebecca
