Jenna + Keith | The Casements | Riverfront Center Ormond Beach

Here at White Blossom, we just love sharing about special days that are spent with very special people! We're playing catch-up and finally posting Jenna and Keith's beautiful Daytona Beach wedding! It was full of nature-inspired elements including lots of burlap, moss, river rock, and driftwood!   When we first met with Jenna & Keith, we knew that we were a perfect match-- we love hands-on projects that can bring a couple's personality to life on their wedding day, and they had a fantastic vision!  For the Gibbs' special day, we collected driftwood and hand-crafted a natural rustic arbor.  We also created personal touches for their reception space, such as natural cypress wood pedestals and an oak slab cake stand.  For decor, we brought in lots of natural Manzanita branches with hanging candles and hydrangea blooms, as well as moss table runners and burlap chair sashes. Mason jars with floating candles and rustic wooden lanterns completed the picture for an elegant and natural celebration!
We loved tackling this project to capture Jenna & Keith's vision for their wedding day!    The ceremony took place at The Casements in Ormond Beach and their reception at the Riverfront Center at St. Demetrios. Also, here are some lovely photos of their big day, compliments of Mark at Mark Dickinson Photography! Have you EVER seen a more BEAUTIFUL couple in your whole life!?   Enjoy!

 A big thank you to all of you who helped make Jenna and Keith's wedding special!

Guestbooks Galore!

Brides, let's be real. If your Guestbook looks like this, then we have a problem! Gone are the days of the tulle & lace covered guestbook from the 80's that you sign only your name in; we have moved on to much greater things in the world! Thank goodness! :]

Wedding guestbooks have become more of a keepsake for couples as opposed to their former role as just dust-collectors in the attic. Also, guestbooks are becoming more of a project. There is more thought going into the ideas behind the guestbook, and what kind of presentation it will have. Nothing makes us happier than to see fresh, new ideas! So I will present you with a few that are fun & creative, but as always I encourage you to think outside the box when it comes to your big day! 

(Descriptions below from Top Left, to Bottom Right)

Some of the ideas that we love included above:

1. Signing a wine bottle

2.Wishing Tree, best wishes for the newlyweds

3. Individuals Mini-Envelopes on the book pages 

for little notes from the guests

4. Signing a vase

5. Sharing "what love means to you"

6. Guests find & sign on their birthday in a calendar- 

GREAT for your first year of marriage!

7. Snap a Picture, paste & sign! 

8. The Thumbprint guestbook

9. Sign a wooden bench

These are all great ideas! 

Be inspired, and have a wonderful day! Love, WB.

Burlap Bride

We adopted some beautiful burlap table runners this weekend at the wedding we did! It was certainly love at first sight for both Britni and I, not to mention everyone else who laid eyes on them! With that being said, enjoy this Burlap Experience! 

One thing you should know about Burlap (that is absolutely awesome) is that you can paint, personalize and even stamp it! Trust me, it makes for a fun & easy DIY project! It is also a very versatile fabric that can go with a variety of themes and designs! You may not have considered burlap before in your planning, but it really is an overlooked gem! ENJOY!
