Adorable Aisle Adornments

From the moment I had my mind set on collecting fabrics to make our dinner napkins, I’ve been trying to find other ways to incorporate the fabrics to make our day seem more cohesive. So far, I’ve come up with ways to incorporate different fabrics into our centerpieces as flowers, on our attendants as boutonnieres (an idea I’m totally, uh, borrowing from Miss Moonbeam!), as a part of our favors, and into the invitations. Thankfully, the internet is full many, many creative and like-minded brides… I’m finding inspiration all over the place!

A few weeks ago, I saw a real wedding featured on 100layercake that made my jaw drop. Seriously. It was like wedding porn created just for me. I squealed, wished that I was as talented as the bride, and then saved the link into my favorites.

Although every DIY detail was the-cutest-thing-I’ve-ever-seen, one image stood out above all others:

Adorable Aisle Adornments : wedding decor Bunting bunting

First of all, she’s wearing the dress I’ve been imagining for myself… which she made herself, BTW. Second of all, that’s probably my absolute favorite use of fabric bunting flags. Ever.

I’m pretty sure that this bride and I would should be BFFs IRL. I hope she doesn’t mind that I’m planning on stealing her aisle decoration idea! I can’t think of a more perfect way to tie together our reception and ceremony areas. Love, love, love it!

I don’t really feel bad for stealing her genius idea; most ideas in wedding-land are stolen from somewhere, right!? Heck, even those that I thought were completely original have been done before by someone, I’m sure!

So, ’fess up, ladies! What ideas have you “stolen” from other brides?

Those fabric flags are neat! And like you said, EVERY idea is stolen from someplace, so I guess ALL my ideas for my wedding are stolen! (I just like to think I stole it, and made it better though!)

I’m stealing the fabric napkin idea, so I say all’s fair! I love that bunting, too — we’re incorporating our napkin fabric into our escort cards, too.

What am I not stealing? Nearly everything I love (and plan to incorporate), I’ve found by reading wedding blogs.

Sorry, I didn’t properly credit my stealing of your fabric leaves in my post. Love the use of fabric bunting on the aisle. I’m trying to figure out where I could use some myself.

I love the colored crinoline on her dress.

And for the stealing worries, I shall quote Picasso.

“Good artists borrow, great artists steal.”

What did I steal? Let me count the ways…
1) DIY flower pomanders (stolen from countless bees on WB)
2) wheatgrass centerpieces (again, stolen from WB and other blogs)
3) cupcakes instead of real cake (stolen from my best friend’s wedding)
4) Bridesmaids gifts (stolen from WB)
and the list could go on and on.
So, yes, I stole it all… but the wedding was all MINE!

I agree, nothing is truly unique, I discovered many of my “awesome”, “never been done” ideas appeared somewhere on the web and while I felt cheated at first I realised it’s a big world full of creative people. We’re likely to have similar ideas as people across the globe.

And I’m sure people attending your wedding won’t recognise the flag trend at all
