From Pinterest Dreams to Wedding day themes

For anyone out there planning a wedding, Pinterest has probably become your best friend. Ok wait... maybe Pinterest is actually our arch-enemy. There is so much beautiful and breath taking inspiration for practically anything! But sometimes Pinterest can make us feel like our wedding will never live up to it's standards without breaking our budgets. Can anyone out there relate?? We have brides come in every week who have been planning their Pinterest perfect wedding since high school with over 700 pins just for their wedding day! These pins most often come from gorgeous styled shoots like this one below.

What we have to train our Pinterest warped minds to remember is that a shoot like the one above cost THOUSANDS of dollars... and while yes it is definitely gorgeous, you may not have the budget to replicate this at all 10-20 tables at your reception. To be a responsible and budget conscious bride you have to admit to yourself that you can not incorporate ALL the ideas on your Pinterest board... but don't be discouraged! We love a gorgeous wedding and we understand not wanting to sacrifice on quality! Our mission is clear... we want to deliver you the Pinterest wedding of your dreams in the most practical ways possible! 

If you don't believe us that your Pinterest wedding is still possible, then take a second to meet Meaghan & Lance! This sweet couple deserved nothing less than a picture perfect wedding and that is exactly what they got. Follow along to see how their wedding went from a Pinterest dream to a spectacular wedding day theme!

Pinterest inspiration: Meaghan loved the idea of a cake that would feature her flowers

When Meaghan first got engaged she sat down with Love Is In The Air and showed us all of her Pinterest inspiration! We were able to incorporate her ideas and deliver a Pinterest perfect wedding that stayed within her budget. Wedding planning may start with Pinterest, but when everything comes together on the day of the wedding it is so much more than simple pretty pictures. We can transform those pins into personalized touches that take what you have always dreamed of and truly bring it to life. And we know that you can too!
