Falling for October!

Wrapping up our third wedding this week end we celebrated the marriage of Lyndsay & Shawn on Sunday, October 1st.  What better way to begin the month of October then to have florals just loaded with fall colors and using pumpkins as vases.  The vibrant colors of the brides bouquet just popped against her dress. 

I just loved what this couple used for their guest book.  They had a canvas that had some silk grape leaves on it.  Guests would sign purple wood circles and then stick them to the canvas to create a grape cluster.  Afterwards the couple will hang this in their home.  Pretty creative huh?

I also thought it was a great idea to have little cards that had the flavors of each cupcake.  They were held up with corks like you would do escort cards.  This way everyone knew which flavor of cupcake to take.  I also like how they didn’t forget their dog Ginger.  Ginger couldn’t physically attend their wedding so they had a ceramic piece of Ginger on display at their dessert table along with a photo of the three of them.  I just love those little personal touches!

Finally, the food.  You can’t go wrong when you have Exchange Events under the direction of Jaclyn catering your wedding here.  I couldn’t pass on the shrimp and grits and I know the bride and her guests couldn’t get enough of the hush puppies!  Also, each guest had a box of New Jersey taffy waiting for them at their table. And to finish off the night the couple had a s’mores bar for guests to help themselves to.  What a great way to finish off the evening.
