Sep12 Pops of Red: How to Get Punchy 2011

You guys! Today, I’m loving all the tiny pops of red in Jenia and Sergey’s wedding. Also, I know it’s become really popular to serve food family style at your wedding. So, I want you to tell me…do you love it? Are you into your guests passing food around and becoming acquainted over passed chicken, are you planning a buffet, opting for “stations” or do you prefer a more formal plated approach? Inquiring minds want to know.

Let’s think things over while we feast our eyes on some absolutely gorg work by Justin Battenfield. LOVE him. For reals. To see more from this wedding, and to read up on all the details, head here!

    Wowee the neckline on that wedding gown is a stunner! And I love the button name tags/table place markers. What a clever idea!

    LOVE the photography! The non-matching, neutral bridesmaid dresses are beautiful. We served dinner family style at my wedding, and I loved it. No waiting for the buffet, no stressing ahead of time about who ordered what meal. The trickiest part was finding serving dishes, most rental companies did not rent anything like what we needed or wanted.
