"green white wedding inspiration"

Katie and Ralph were married just a few weeks ago at The Mill at Fine Creek. Despite the sweltering July heat, Katie couldn’t have been more beautiful, carrying a bouquet designed by my good friend Janie Medley (the brides cafe & jm flora).

Favors made by petites bouchees, dressed up with “merci” flags we made with this stamp from paper source. We also bagged favors in simple, white bags I found at a craft store and stamped them with the larger merci stamp, also from paper source.

"vintage sheet music"

This is a fun little installation we did for clients of ours who hosted their reception at Crittenden Studio last month. Natalie’s husband, Lincoln, is a musician and her only request was that we incorporate sheet music somewhere in the design, so we thought this wall of flowers would be a great backdrop for the band. To see more from Natalie & Lincoln’s wedding, pop over to The Inspired Bride!

Sponsor Introduction: Jennifer Colina Photography

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

I’m so happy to introduce Little White Book’s newest sponsor, Jennifer Colina
Photography. Jennifer’s interest in photography was sparked during a trip to Nepal.
Later, when the photographer at her own wedding noticed her talent, he offered
Jennifer an apprenticeship and the rest is history. Jennifer struck out on her own
and founded Jennifer Colina Photography. You might remember the photographs
that Jennifer took of me and my husband. She has such an easy way about her. She’s buttoned-up, professional and reserved, but at the same time truly insightful and
absolutely human, easy to relate to and work with. Be sure to stop by and check out
her blog. I’m really loving Megan and Colby’s engagement pictures Jennifer just posted.

Thanks so much for joining us here at little white book, Jennifer!

I’m so happy to share these lovely bridal portraits of Lauren at Richmond’s Poe Museum captured by Jennifer Colina. They’re so classic, soft and feminine.



The Poe Museum is such a excellent backdrop for portraits.
