refutably rencontre de nouvelles personnes I am so excited to share today’s post!  I haven’t done this yet, but I want to include weddings that inspire me on this blog.   So here we are with my very first inspiring wedding to share!  My beautiful cousin got married last year and I simply loved her wedding.  From start to finish there were personal touches, and sweet details met us at every turn.  Being a guest was a delight–I sipped the signature cocktail, I found my name on the charming escort card fence, I danced the night away under pretty paper lanterns.  Courtney and Geoff created a fun, personal, and intimate family-oriented celebration.  I enjoyed every minute of it and commend them on throwing such a great party!

vivastreet rencontre sexe lyon Here is Courtney’s wedding story, in her words:

https://cdif.info/83131-gite-petite-france-reunion-11008/ I was raised in Virginia, it’s the state my husband and his military family lived the longest, and more importantly, it’s the place we met and fell in love.  The Thomas Birkby House’s 18th century origins, brick terraces, and manicured gardens appealed to our sense of history and home. We wanted to introduce our guests to our state and our love story in an intimate garden setting full of romantic and personal details. Inspired by the shades of Southern porch ceilings, painted blue to mimic the sky, we chose dusty aqua blue and rich chocolate brown to ground our wedding color palette, providing a sweet contrast to antique silver and creamy petal accents. We displayed family wedding photos to celebrate the great love stories we know best, and incorporated handmade touches throughout the decor- hand-tied posy pins and cookies baked from a family recipe served as favors, built a frame to display our handmade escort cards, covered books in blue paper in a nod to our university beginnings and love of literature, and in one daring DIY escapade, I made my first ever mosaic after a case of mercury glass votives arrived broken (and non-returnable). There isn’t a single lemon that can’t be turned into lemonade when you keep your eye on the prize- honoring your partner and the love you share.

    Thank you for the feature, Christy, and for your advice while planning! We were blessed to have the love, support, and helping hands of our family and friends- not to mention an awesome team of vendors- to make our dream wedding a reality.

A Little Explanation

I have been writing a blog since I started my career as a wedding planner in San Francisco in 2009. Any posts here that were written prior to September 2014, I wrote when I was a planner with Allure Consulting in the Bay Area. After September 2014, all posts are as Christy Matthews Events, based in the DFW area (but still with one foot firmly planted in SF!). Questions? info@christymatthewsevents.com Thanks for visiting my blog! wedding
