Wedding Wednesday 003- As Good as Pink, Brown and Gold

My little cousin {and I use the term loosely, she's really not that much younger than me} is getting married next May.  We have been planning her wedding since the beginning of this year and we can't wait... At least once a week she calls me and we shrill and giggle on the phone as we peruse through wedding websites and facebook in search of wedding inspirables. 

She has enlisted me to do the planning and decorating for this shindig and I want it to be as good as gold!  She is my little cousin after all!  LOL!

Almost all of this wedding will be DIY; so I am constantly on the lookout for future projects in which to indulge in preparation for her big day! 

Today I will look at the big picture view using some images found on google and then we will go from there... We still have about 11 months so I am certain that I will do a few {breakout} post of this wedding.... so bear with me... Hopefully, this will serve as a reference for us as well....

The creativity is really flowing now.... And if you have any creative ideas or can point me in the direction of some create DIY wedding sites please share.... Thanks in advance!

Wedding Wednesday 001

I have been caught in a whirlwind of weddings and I am sooooo loving it!  After assisting my best friend with planning her wedding.... I thought to myself... I can do this and so I did!  Now, I offer day of wedding of coordinating services as part of my event planning company- Visuality Planning and Events.  You can read more about it here!

Planning and coordinating these beautiful weddings have been blissful for me.  Words can not express the emotions that I feel as witness two lovely individuals joined together in mutual love and respect for God and for one another.

At the culmination of each wedding I am filled with mixed emotions... I am happy for the new couple... I am delighted in the way that day unfolded....  I am thankful for the gifts that God had given to create and coordinate... I am exhausted from all of the energy and effort put into making their day extra special... and I am sad that it has all come to an end... No more countless phone calls, no more locking-in vendors, no more looking for the perfect jewelry and flower girls dresses... Just like {that} it is over... And I am on to the next bride!

I wish I could plan a wedding every weekend, but since that is next to impossible right now... I will settle with my new blog series Wedding Wednesday!  As time alots, I am going to post my wedding inspirables on Wednesday.  I will try and focus on the small details that will make a world of difference on your wedding day.
