What made your wedding special? My entire family came together to make this day phenomenal. My mom was an amazing planner as she designed and created every aspect of our decorations. My dad built all our signs and stunning wood cake stands. My grandmother and I created our wedding invitations and programs. Even my younger brother painted magnolia leaves hours on end! I have never felt more loved as everyone worked hard to not only create a beautiful wedding, but also encourage the marriage of my husband and I. Now I get to look back and see the love of my family in every aspect of our big day.
What inspires you? When we decided to get married in December, I knew I wanted an outdoor winter feel, but I had to add my own flair with gold glitz! Our wedding was full of pine branches and gold glitter, a winter wonderland with a New Year’s Eve sparkle! Each southern magnolia leaf was adorned in gold, mixed with evergreen branches and Mississippi cotton.
