another wedding thing

This bride wanted a "Countries" theme for her American wedding, and wanted it in teal, and wanted there to be penguins involved. And so the teal penguins take a trip around the world.

Each table centerpiece is a different country; 20 tables for 20 countries. On the left, a logo that goes onto everything; on the right, the Paris table.

A wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime affair, the biggest birthday bash of sorts, the chance for a girl to wish for anything and wave her hands about to make it happen. There has to be that fairy tale element to it: sparkling lights, a little whimsy, a little glamor.

This bride is not settling for the readymade package, choosing instead to custom-make everything even if it means getting her friends together to cut out stickers. While I feel tired on her behalf, preparing the different elements that she has to put together, I like the belief she upholds that a bride can make anything happen. Even if it's teal penguins traveling to 20 countries.
