Youre welcome! I almost missed this, as it got caught up in the post you quoted me on.

It took me a few moments to realize you werent talking about the people at that thread. I'm thinking.....how does she know their Sun signs and that the bride is passive....?? lol

I wish I could be of more help, but weddings are not something I'm very interested in. Even though I did run across that site and found what they did quite beautiful.

I like how they were heavy on the handmade and nature stuff. They got really creative and put a lot of thought into it. I think people might appreciate that more too. Rather than go to another cookie cutter wedding.

I think you should think along those lines and check out that link some more to see what others have done. It might help you both to come up with something really spectacular, out of the ordinary and memorable for everyone.

If I find anything else, I'll post it here. Best of luck. & come back and show us some photos when all is said and done!

Thanks so much for posting the ideas, The bride is going for something more natural and not the cookie cutter type thing...Something more meaningful she just has a hard time getting creative.
I love working with nature.....it so easy natural and beautiful....

A quote from the site:

Two Doves - Author unknown

Two doves meeting in the sky
Two loves hand in hand eye to eye
Two parts of a loving whole
Two hearts and a single soul

Two stars shining big and bright
Two fires bringing warmth and light
Two songs played in perfect tune
Two flowers growing into bloom

Two Doves gliding in the air
Two loves free without a care
Two parts of a loving whole
Two hearts and a single soul

Another one:

Kahil Gilbran philosopher and poet

You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore.
You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days.
Ay, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of heavens dance between you.

Love one another, but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone,
Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.

Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.

And perhaps you could get some outdoor location ideas from these photos. Look at the beach one

Love & Light Thank you
