A Jazzy wedding

Qian and David got married in October and jazzed the house. David plays this sexy saxophone... Their Asian inspired black and red decor fit to their sparkly spirits.

The cute little vases and wooden table numbers were a re-use and the minimal daisy decor fit perfectly to the relaxed Zen feel of the event.

The ceremony featured a traditional tea ceremony honoring parents and planet.

Their organic menu, an Asian/Mexican fusion, was the result of a special tasting and many foodie discussions: how to fuse the two cuisines without re-inventing the restaurant's banquet menu?

The baker did his best to copy Qian's intricate design.

The musical couple, Qian sang, David played sax, danced amazingly well together without rehearsal.

The bouquet toss made somebody very happy...

Everybody had a lot of fun.

We had a happy time planning and manifesting Qian and David's gorgeous and eco-aware wedding.

DIY Wedding Scrapbook/Guestbook

Fantastic scrap book guest book by Lorraine who got married to Michel on 11/11/11. The wedding and reception were as marvelous as this book. We had so much fun planning the affair.

Happily hand crafted wedding

Teacy and Richard's wedding in late August of 2011 was an inspiring event with many heartfelt and hand crafted details and it was at least for some part, about the lucky horse show.

Little blocks from scrap wood with hand painted table numbers matched the colorful mix of "one stroll through the flower mart".

Tracy's eclectic frames with pictures of important memories added to the personal and intimate feel.

Inessa and Rob celebrated their 2011 wedding integrating lots of vintage and handcrafted details, so beautiful that I just needed to post the inspiring pictures even if the wedding was already a few months ago. The pictures speak for themselves.

Wedding trend: Ombre

The Ombre pics at green wedding shoes are so cute, I just needed to link everybody to it. What a sweet trend, and if you like, you can "green" it just by using eco cool ingredients and materials. It's fun to be inspired.

AWE Manifesto

We believe that you should be free on your wedding day: of rules, preconceptions, of expectancies and any shoulds and have tos and that dancing down the isle, dressing up in red and munching chocolate instead of your newly wed dinner is very much your right. We promise to support your uniqueness and to assist you spending your big bucks mindfully or stretching your small budget to amazingness - whatever the plan if it makes you happy it's a go. When you feel that little giggle inside you most probably found it: your wedding, your path. We suggest that, as you are looking at green weddings, minimum waste and avoiding clouds of pesticides will make you fly. Because you want the future to be better than the present. That makes you our super heroes who we will help to celebrate with mind and heart, to manifest fancy ideas or with the best DIY magic we can come up with. Be it with Zenlike simplicity or creative indulgence, with rock'n roll passion or down to earth sweetness, we make sure family and friends have fun they never knew existed, that small businesses and our community thrives with us and that we don't kick our planet to the curb in the process.
We promise, when we throw parties all is good.
