Ideas from the Fisher Wedding









Yes, of course I was first in line to pick up today's copy of People Magazine in order to obsess over the pictures of Mike and Carrie Fisher's Wedding, and I wasn't disappointed. Judging by the pictures, it is obvious that Carrie held onto her vision of her perfect wedding as she had imagined it as a little girl - it looked very magical, very fairy-tale-like, but equally elegant.

In true celebrity style, she changed from her Monique Lhuillier gown into the same designer's strapless cocktail dress. I love how, in the second picture, you can see that one of her guests has already removed her heels, stashed them below her chair and is probably polishing the dance floor in bare feet! Amazing!!!

So what ideas can we take from this affair?

*Using round balls of flowers (she used roses) hung on simple garden flower planter stands to distinguish the aisles for the ceremony

* Having your "alter" in the centre and your guests sitting around in a circle to witness your vows

* using natural elements (tree trunks for the ceremony & branches at the reception tables) to add whimsy

* not overdoing a theme...I was a little nervous that we might see cowgirl hats or hockey sticks everywhere, however, they used bronze painted hockey pucks as table assignment cards in a very creative way. It was a very pink/feminine wedding, so I guess Mike had to have this one element for him!!!

Enjoy the pictures above, or better yet, just go out and buy the magazine yourself...you know you want to!!!
