Creative Consult

Inspiration •  The location. It is serene, natural and beautiful. •  Classic vintage looks mixed with mid--‐century modern pieces (such as the Eames). •  We are detail-oriented and like to bring character using interesting and unique details.

Description: •  Simple, elegant, fresh, comfortable, unique, casual but chic. •  We want our guests to feel at ease and welcome from the moment they arrive.

Personal Details Ideas: •  A “family tree”, with pictures of our family members hung from a tree. •  Unique wedding favors. Something that doesn’t include our names on it. •  Possible time capsule, guests can write us well wishes/notes, and we will open it upon our five year

anniversary. •  We are very sentimental, so anything of that nature is great. •  Photo escort cards, table number signs – using Andrew’s photos of special and memorable locations •  Family style dining during reception, long wooden tables, possible elegant candelabras.

Color Preferences: •  Gray •  Shades of Gray •  Navy •  White

Textures & Fabric Preferences: •  We are open to ideas on fabrics, and would like to include rich textures and a variety of patterns. •  Touches of burlap might be an option, but overall we want it to look clean. •  Candelabras in an aged/patina silver possibly

Additional Notes & Thoughts for Décor: •  We want to have some type of canopy or other entry piece at the gate leading to the ceremony. •  Yard games during cocktail hour, such as croquet, would be a fun touch. •  Lighting is key for us, we want the area to feel warm and inviting.

Date completed: May 2012
