Preserving Leaves

Fall is in full force, which means harvest and fall themed weddings are an extremely popular option for brides!

Fall Foliage is a great way to incorporate all of the gorgeous colors of Autumn into your wedding, but leaves tend to crumble and lose their vibrancy by the time your wedding comes around. That's why, when we stumbled upon a wonderful D-I-Y leaf preservation tutorial at Emmaline Bride, we were ecstatic!

Pumpkin Cake Topper

Cake toppers are a hit-or-miss for me, but when I saw these Pumpkin Cake Toppers over at Emmaline Bride I fell in LOVE. Obviously I had to share so you could obsess as well!

Unique Fall Wedding Decor

October has always been one of my absolute favorite times of the year. Crisp air, fall colors, Halloween decorating, cute scarves, pumpkin spice lattes...what's not to love?!



One of my very very favorite things to do, however, is Pumpkin Carving! So many options and fun designs to utilize- even as decor for your wedding!



I'm not talking about our friend the Jack O' Lantern (although if you're going for a spooky theme, then awesome! Go for it!), I'm referring to this beautiful doily stenciled pumpkin I stumbled across on Better Homes and Gardens.
