A Gorgeous & Rustic "Day After" Wedding Session at the farm with a white horse

Today's couple, Sara and David married on a European cruise surrounded by a few family members and close friends. While they did have a photographer on board, once they came back home, they realized they didn't have enough photos of them together and wanted to capture more. So, they contacted Arina B Photography and headed to the farm where they were surrounded by the most amazing white horse, dogs, cows, lots of hay and sunshine. Arina writes . . . "For me as a photographer, the Day After session or Trash the dress session is the happiest of all, simply because I get to take photos of a beautiful bride and groom without wedding rush, stress and time line. This session makes a perfect anniversary present as well. Couples get to refresh their sweet wedding memories and capture more photos of that gorgeous dress the bride is no longer afraid to get dirty!"

Red Plaid Winter Wedding Inspiration {from the archives}

With many new brides {and vendors} visiting my blog, I wanted to share another inspiration board from the archives as I'm thinking many of my current readers may not have seen this one yet. My favorite ideas for a winter wedding in plaid include:
1. providing your guests with wool plaid blankets to stay warm
2. use picnic tables with wool blankets on top as the tablecloths
3. let your bridesmaids wear a plaid skirt with a fancy black cardigan
4. for dessert, a red velvet cake seems like the perfect sweet treat

A Green Wedding Inspiration Board for St. Patrick's Day

With tomorrow being St. Patrick's Day, I just had to put together an inspiration board for the holiday and for green weddings - with a touch of plaid and glitter. How cute are those green glittered clothespins? They could be used in so many ways - attaching the menu to the folded napkin, attaching the table number to the potted plant centerpiece or even to hold a paper banner up. And, of course a green velvet wedding cake would be just perfect for the green holiday wedding.

Please click the above image to see the board larger.
