Even though I’ve never met Thryn or Gabe personally, I just know they are an awesome couple. Not only is their wedding filled with incredible DIY wedding details, but also they both will be leaving very soon to serve a two year term with the Peace Corps in Africa together. I am so glad I was able to share their wedding before they head off.

To see more pictures or instructions for all the projects above check out Thryns awesome blog. Thanks so much guys for sharing your day with us and I wish you the best of luck in Africa!!

Even though all the pieces above are actually corsages and boutonnieres, I love how LaLaLaurie displayed one on top of a birch stump under the glass dome. Wouldn’t it be lovely as the centerpiece for a reception table?

Opening up my inbox and seeing the beautiful wedding of Rebecca + Eric that Leigh Miller sent me made my day. Rebecca and Eric recently got married at the El Dorado Royale in Riveria Maya, Mexico. I absolutely love the Nicole Miller taffeta gown she wore. What a perfect dress for a beach wedding. Leigh Miller is the incredible photographer behind these images. Leigh is one of the most talented photographers I’ve ever come across in the wedding world, so this is a huge treat and honor for me to post these pictures on Once Wed. To see more of this wonderful wedding, click on over to her blog.

Sarah Jessica Parker’s wore this crazy hat to the Sex and the City premiere last night and it kinda sparked a debate on whether her move was over the top or not. Honestly, I love over the top in certain situations and I think she is one of the few individuals who can carry a look like this off, so I love it. It also reminded me of a unique wedding Abby featured on her site a couple weeks back where another bride wore a funky hat pictured above(which I also loved and that orange dress is awesome!). So what do you guys think about over the top hats for a wedding, love it or leave it? If you are looking for a hairpiece/hat that leans towards the eccentric side, check out kankalinhats etsy store. Her pieces are bold, but incredibly made and colorful.
