To finish up our February posts, the month of love, we have the most adorable real wedding to share - Teddy and Poppy's beautiful vintage farm nuptials.
Held in Clinton, NY, and photographed by the very talented BSC Photo Studio, it was a day full of pretty handmade details and loads of romantic, rustic charm.
The ceremony was held outside the farms barn under strings of floral fabric bunting. It was a motif used throughout the decor, from the table centrepieces to place cards. We just love the mix of of pretty floral dresses worn by the bridesmaids.
Tables where decorated with groups of old mason jars filled with flowers, burlap table cloths and a scattering of the fabric bunting. So simple but so very pretty.
And how adorable are the bunting place cards? Just sew a couple of little triangles of fabric to quite a thick bit of card. A piece of matching material to tie up the napkin finishes off the look.
And if you weren't already overwhelmed with all the prettiness of this wedding - it's cuteness overload....
Rustic burlap teamed with delicate lace is the perfect combination for creating a beautiful table setting. It's easy to make your own table runners by adding some lace to a roll of burlap, either side or right down the middle. Or how about just placing lace hankies or doilies for an even quicker designer look? Fabric, Paper, Thread has a cute little tutorial showing you how to make a burlap and lace table runner with pieced of old lace and doilies.
