The simple and charming wedding of Natalie + Jared from the incredible Jill Thomas showed up in my reader recently and I couldn’t wait to share it with everyone. This DIY bride made her own adorable necklace and bouquet. Talent must run in the family, because the gorgeous wedding dress was made by her mother. So sweet and romantic….

I love this super sweet California wedding from the fabulous Brandon Kidd. The ceremony and reception took place at one of my new favorite venues, the Smog Shoppe, with its incredible detailed decor and a planted wall as your ceremony backdrop.

I’m excited this morning to introduce one of our new sponsors, Inspired Goodness. Here’s a little bit about the services they provide…
Our role is simple…we help craft your story as a couple. We spend a lot of time getting to know each couple; we ask how they met, fell in love, we ask about their shared interests, what they love most about one another, we brainstorm ways that we can pay homage to both their families and also incorporate their heritage. From there, we develop a cohesive design plan – a key component includes custom paper goods, which provides us a fun way to infuse details of their story throughout the entire wedding.
In honor of Valentine’s Day, Inspired Goodness is offering one lucky couple their design services entirely for FREE. To enter, all you need to do is leave a comment on their blog during the first two weeks of February (1st – 12th) saying what makes you as a couple, so unique. It’s open to readers in the New York City area and the only catch is that the wedding date must take place between August 1st and December 15, 2010. Good luck!

I hope that everyone had a wonderful weekend! We’ve got a busy week here at Once Wed full of charming real weddings and talented new sponsors. Up first is this sweet New York wedding that took place in July and the gorgeous flowers were created by the always incredible Saipua. And how much do you love the groom’s baby blue suit with floral print tie?
