Monochromatic
We kept our wedding mostly monochromatic... sticking with ivory for most things like the flowers and the linens because (a) I love color simplicity, infusing substance with textures and layers, and (b) my wedding favors brought in a wide range of color to complement the venue in the place settings.
Surprise Inside
I really wanted to do something unique for the wedding favors. I figured since we are getting married at The George Peabody Library, obviously the first thought was BOOKS! But I couldn't just do books, I had to add my personal touch. We wrapped them in simple twine with a little "gift for you" note and then we had a surprise inside!
Books are from Barnes and Nobles — Barnes & Noble Collectible Editions.
