They say a picture is worth a thousand words…it can also inspire a thousand ideas.

We all know the drill: girl meets boy, girl falls in love, girl says “Yes!” and then girl gushes with other girls as she pores over piles of bridal magazines and pages upon pages of Pinterest.

It makes my job that much more fun when I can help a bride re-create a table setting, a bouquet, a sunset ceremony…or brainstorm ways in which we can take a snapshot of a concept and turn it into something uniquely her own.

Below are a few such examples of inspiration for a ceremony I have coming up in October. Stay tuned for photos of the real thing!
