I’m so excited to be here for a Wedding Wednesday guest post. I’m absolutely positive that Alex’s wedding is going to be beyond fabulous – with her sense of style it’s really impossible for it to be anything but. I’m also in the midst of planning my own wedding (less than 9 months away, ah!!) and it has been nothing but fun. When it comes to wedding planning, the focus is normally on the big decisions (naturally). So much importance is placed on the dress, the invitations, the photographer, the music, the food, the venue (again, naturally). With that being said, it’s so important to invest a little time and put a bit of thought behind the little things that go into the day. Small personal touches can make such a big difference. Here are a few little things that I’ve been thinking about for our wedding.

the addition of the dog to the modern wood models is adorable, and how fabulous is that succulent topped cake? |

in love with the DIY painted jars and the uniqueness of the old books |
wedding favors

favors can get tacky (quickly) but not here. i’m a sucker for food related items anywhere, anytime. |

this is a great place to tie in your theme for the evening and have fun with it. |
What special touches did you put into your wedding day? I’d love to hear. Thanks for having me, Alex!
And check me out over at Fashion Truffles today, I am sharing my favorite fall color palate.
love succulents integrated into wedding design!
Such a lovely post! I love Lara, she is adorable with a serious sense of style!
Love all these ideas! I’ve been going through millions of ideas for table numbers and I love all these.
Thanks for stopping by FT today, Alex!

I love those little bird cake toppers, so cute!
I agree about edible wedding favors, it’s something that will actually get used and not just take up space in someone’s home. We did maple syrup at our wedding

Im sure you know I got married in vegas so I didnt do any of this fun stuff – love living vicariously each week!!! One thing I woudl make sure to have had is at the hotel, a gift bag at check-in – such a special touch to make a guest feel welcome in your city – and fill it with things they may have overlooked – gum, bandaids, asprin, treats!
Oh if I could only plan my wedding over again…the things I would do differently! I think my favorite is the succulent cake topper!
Such great ideas! The lemons are so simple but add such a pop!
Thanks so much for having me today Alex! Love planning all these details… I wish I could five weddings so I could execute all my ideas
I can’t get over that LOVE cake topper–we used stamps with that design on our invites {and actually on our cake too!}. Love Lara’s picks…sigh. Happy Wednesday! xoxo {av} | {long distance loving}
Our cake topper was made to look like our wedding flowers, my friend designed our table numbers and stationary. Oh and our sign in sheet was designed by a friend as well and made to look like an oversized wedding certificate and all the signatures were guests under “witnesses.”
Love all the wedding ideas! We had succulents for a cake topper and mini cupcakes for favors!
Love all of these ideas. Especially the table numbers. So many different ways to do everything. I think it’s the little touches that make weddings so unique and special.
Oh my gosh those cake toppers are adorable. What a fun post!
Love it, and I just know that Alex’s wedding will be the bomb diggity.
Great ideas! We had old family wedding photos displayed at our reception venue. Each one was labeled with the couple’s name and date of marriage. I thought it was a nice way to incorporate those that are no longer with us – like my grandparents.
such great table setting ideas here – love it
Love that LOVE topper!
Love all of these Lara! It’s the little things that make a wedding so fabulous and that people remember for years.
We love to travel so we named our tables after places we’ve visited and had a photo of us at that location on the table. Also we had a cookie table for our favors and we had a cookie that represented my Greek heritage and a cookie that was from J’s Norwegian background and then had our cookie recipe that we make every holiday season.
So many great ideas! Makes me want to get married again. Okay, I lie. I’m perfectly happy being done with the wedding planning
Love Lara!
Special touches are EVERYTHING at weddings. I used my in-laws cake topper from their wedding in ’72- it was so cute & shabby chic!
Oh I love everything in this post!!! xx
Adorable!!! Love the vintage cake toppers! xx
One of my favorite things about planning my wedding was all the details. I collected dandelions a put them each in separate cute jars so that each guest could make a wedding wish for us =). I love all the ideas above
