Kate's theme was modern with a bit of earthy element. Of course because Kate works for Ikea there were the Swedish market's touches everywhere. She even had a lounge set up on the rooftop for guests to watch the ceremony... lounge furniture provided by Ikea via the girls at By Design. Pam Baily, the florist, (website coming soon) did an amazing job. There were trees on the tables with little modern wire birds nests and handmade, patterned bird cut outs. (that kate made). It was so adorable. And one of my favorite ideas, sticking to the "tree" theme, was the advice tree. All the guests pinned their marriage advice to a little tree- great idea! Kate is so artsy, she made the coolest little memory montage book I've ever seen. There's a picture down below. What a creative, fun rooftop wedding!

Also, you might notice some music chiming in today. Well I added some jingle to my site. These sounds happen to come from my wedding (originally the sound track of Amelie). My processional felt like a carnival movie dance, I still get a little emotional thinking about it.

Anyway, cheers summertime- you are officially in Carolina heat. And to make all the summertime brides feel better about their sweltering weddings and because my wedding music is playing, here's a few messy pics of sweaty people getting down at my wedding. (and yes I breakdanced (not sure if that's proper English) in my wedding dress!) pictures courtesy of the fabulous Wide-eyed Photography.

Some boys dancing.
