My plan for designing our wedding was to think "outside in." Choose the overall effect you want, and create it. Then, work inward from there. Makes sense to me! A great book for this is Michelle Rago's Signature Weddings.
I'm a big believer in "following your instincts," so I decided to close my eyes, imagine our wedding, and write down what immediately comes to mind. Over the next several months, this would change many times in many different ways, each change reflecting some revelation or something new I'd discovered about myself or about us.
Introspection aside, initially I loved the idea of getting married outdoors somewhere and having a classically romantic indoor reception. I love the whole "inspiration board" trend, and I decided to create one myself! Do these stylistic elements match?
Stay tuned to see what actually happened!
