portland wedding love

I know I fall in love with a lot of weddings but this one might be my most favourite wedding ever. Kelly and Joseph had a wedding in the woods in Portland and it is cut straight from the cloth of my fantasy wedding. As a little girl I never, ever dreamed of my big white wedding in a church with all the trimmings. I only ever wanted a small, homestyle wedding on the dock of our family camp. That was never able to happen as my grandfather sold the camp when I was in my early teens - something I consider to be one of our great family tragedies. But I digress.

This wedding is exactly the wedding I would have wanted.

Of course there would be dogs....

I love the idea of a wedding party travelling through the forest.

I love the way her bouquet looks like she picked it on the way to the ceremony site. I'm also ultra in love with her perfect birdcage veil.

Picnic blankets everywhere -- best idea!!

And this. This is my favourite wedding photo of all time.

botanical wedding

Oh me oh my, I want to get married again and have this wedding all to myself! DesignSponge posted this feature on Jill and Matt's amazingly beautiful wedding and I couldn't love it more.

All these messy wildflower looking bouquets? Lovely!!

DIY seed packets as wedding favours - we used wildflower packets ourselves but these are just too darling. I love the birdsnest idea!

They handmade hair accessories from vintage silk flowers and every guest took one and wore it for the ceremony - swoon!

Save the date cards made to look like vintage botanical cards.

They had ties made special for the groomsmen and had their names embroidered on the backs.

And the cake topper which is probably my favourite thing of all.

Married again please!!!

I love the idea of photobooths and camera rooms at weddings and will always wish I had one at mine. Anyway, here's a great one I saw over at The Flashdance today. Obviously given my current obsession with vintage oil paintings I think their camera room is fantastic but the wedding photos these guys have now are the tops.

Of course, I bet having Ron Howard show up to your wedding helps up the cool factor too...
