plan a modern wedding in the middle of the country

For any of you black and white brides out there, one of you should wear this dress.

Love the modern, sculpted bodice, and how chic this overall look is.

This would also be good for any of you winter brides.

PLUS, this dress is only $245.  That’s a steal if you ask me…

Although, I somewhat cringe at the sight of kelly green (I can’t help it, they were my high school colors).  I really love the freshness of this table set up and the palette.

The green with the stark white really pops – which is great. The last thing a bride would want is for her decor to fade out with the table linens. Plus this is a great case of “all you can get are white linens, how do you incorporate color?”

It’s color day at the Landlocked Bride. Stay tuned for another great combo this afternoon!

I definitely love a red, white and blue wedding.  Nothing to do with patriotism, red and blue are just two of my favorite colors, and I absolutely love them together.  I especially love when a bride (or groom) does it right, like this Australian one.

It is fantastic when the details are so well thought out. The bride placed photos of her grandparents in little blue frames and strung them from her bouquet on blue ribbon.

The navy and the red just make me swoon. They are such classic colors! And the guys’ blue suits with the striped shirts? Ahh! So great!

And, I can think of one lovely American bride who also did red, white in blue in such a fantastic way.

I recently found this post on Style Me Pretty about a week ago and wanted to share.  I’m not one for tradition or going over board on design elements, so I immediately fell in love with the classic simplicity of the decor at this wedding.  Plus, the fact that they used virtually all white and candlelight just really makes the loft space come alive.  Enjoy!

It’s good to note that most of the design elements used by the bride and groom can be easily recreated yourself (woot!).  The table numbers can be printed at home and placed on cardstock.  For the centerpieces, you would just need to find some tall vases and floating candles.  And the candles along the aisle for their ceremony?  That’s an easy one.  Just stop by your local Hobby Lobby or Michael’s to buy large hurricane vases and pillar candles.

The space just really comes to life, which I love. And, all it took was some simple modern decor.
