Another Source Of Inspiration
November 5th, 2007 @ 3:15 pm by Ms. Dahlia
There are a lot of places to find inspiration for weddings- a whole host of blogs that focus around design and/or weddings as well as the website of bridal magazines. One of my favorite blogs, however, is one that deals strictly in fashion and photography- The Sartorialist. Consider the possibilities that a single picture could have:
A color palate of rich greens, cocktail reception with lots of martinis. Not a whole lot of flowers, maybe some candles.
Vintage/classic sort of feel- I imagine this afternoon affair taking place in a country estate, or perhaps in a library. Favors could be used penguin classic books- you can often get them for .$50 or less at Amazon.
Smaller wedding, with reception held in a modern restaurant. Good food and good drinks, not a whole lot in the way of decor. Fun, laid-back but still stylish.
Wedding held outside at a country club, with a brunch reception to follow.
Outside, tented reception taking place in May, with mint juleps for everyone.
What are your favorite non-wedding related sources of inspiration?

I’d have to agree with you - the Sartorialist is hands down my favorite online place for wedding inspiration.
thanks for the mention!! i was so excited when i saw the link to my blog, i let out a little squeal! i’ve found so much inspiration through wedding bee, it’s so exciting to be ‘officially’ linked to your community! :o)
My wedding photographer also does commercial photography. I can’t link directly to the picture (grr), but go here: http://jenncress.com/
Click Lifestyle at the top left, then choose Croquet below that. I basically love ALL of the pictures in that set, but I especially loved the second one.
Love the Sartorialist. I go there daily and double daily.

About Me: I enjoy cooking, dancing and swimming. I am a geek and apply game theory to my everyday life. Winter is my favorite time of year, especially when spent curled up with good coffee and a book by Madeleine L'Engle.
I often pour through Pottery Barn just for decoration ideas. I agree, sometimes looking at non-wedding related materials can spark up some new innovative ideas for your wedding.
