Incredibly realistic, these paper flowers were twisted to create lavish headdresses then paired with vintage clothing and jewelry with bold makeup to top off the look.

A new wedding trend that we are completely on board with is a love seat for the bride and groom. Our clients are renting in specialty love seats to share at their head table or sweetheart table. Another option is to purchase a special seat to use at the wedding and then keep forever in your home as reminder of the special day. It will become a special heirloom. Selecting a love seat is a wonderful way to add your special touch to the day. It is a unique and beautiful detail. We love the photo opportunities it affords as well. There is something so romantic about a couple glancing over the back of a love seat.
