Sunflowers.

I LOVE sunflowers. They remind me of late summer/early fall and they're just beautiful! If you've ever driven by a giant sunflower field you know how breathtaking of a sight that can be.

When planning our wedding two years ago, I knew that sunflowers were going to play a part. And they did! I really think they fit perfectly into the style and feel of our day and our beautiful photos (compliments of Megan W Photography) prove it!

These were in tin buckets at the head of the aisle.

They were in our centerpiece arrangements.

My beautiful bridesmaids held them.


They added the perfect pop of color in our reception tent.

I hope to some day have a sunflower garden. Then I would be able to cut fresh sunflowers to put in vases throughout my house any time I want!

What is your favorite summer/fall flower?

Your wedding looked gorgeous! I love the way the sunflower's look with your bridesmaid's dresses.

I actually cannot get enough of hydrangeas of every color. I would love to devote a whole section of my yard to them :)

Your wedding was beautiful! I know I've seen formal pictures of you and your hubby at the wedding, but I don't think I have ever seen these. So pretty!

You were such a perfect bride! I still love looking at your photos, because everything was so well put together and it just had the great Michigan feel to the day, while still being so romantic and chic.

Anyway, I love sunflowers too! However hydrangeas have got to be my favs. Hoping someday I'll have some planted in my yeard.
