Styled for Summer
Your summer wedding is fast approaching and your hair is still a mystery. Sure, you have vague notions of flowers, sparkle and maybe shells (as an homage to your beachy ceremony). But there’s a toss up as to whether it’ll be an updo, long and flowy, or a little of both.
Don’t worry! We’re here to help with a few summer styles that will hopefully inspire you to commit…to your ‘do.

Whether you are getting married on a vineyard or in a hotel - you can have grapes as your natural inspiration for any wedding. There are vineyards all over the world and if your wedding is nearby - chances are you can use grapes for just about any part of your decor. Bring the outdoors inside with grapes in your floral designs, favors, cuisine and more! Buy your grapes locally to keep your carbon footprint low for eco-beautiful flair!

Elopement Sneak Peak
We are so excited about the summer issue coming out in June that we wanted to show you a special sneak peek of one of special sections on elopements. Keeping it green has never been easier when you have one of the smallest footprints with only a few or no guests at all! But that does not mean you have to skimp on style!!! Stay tuned for the magazine that goes live on 6/15!!

Eco-Friendly Beach Wedding with Fantasy Floral Designs
Fantasy Floral Designs designer Amanda Heer’s daughter was married on a remote island in the Cayos Cochinos Islands. They chartered a boat from Ray Anthony Extreme Charters to the small and remote island of Cacahuete for a very small wedding.
Breathtaking is all we have to say!!
The simple but effective decor was all eco-friendly and reused! And of course - the Pièce de résistance:
Amanda made such a beautiful bouquet for her daughter with shells and vintage brooch jewelry. Just beautiful!!!
Congrats to Cameron & Jeff!
