Swooning over this destination wedding in Iceland (sunshine for 24 hours!) styled by the sublime Jillian over at 100 Layer Cake. So many steal-worthy ideas for crafting a completely original wedding or party, & the raw, natural beauty of Iceland couldn’t have been a more romantic backdrop. The beyond-gorgeous invites created by Sarah Hanks chronicled the couple’s love story and set the tone for a vintage-y wedding inspired by books & wordplay. A few of my favorite details…
The ceremony overlooked the ocean & lava fields, & natural elements from the land were incorporated wherever possible: The bride’s bouquet included bunches of wildflower gathered from the surrounding fields!
Such a clever idea for an escort card display: guests picked up their card, then had to find the seat with a corresponding phrase. (ie, the bride’s phrases were “I heart” and “Mark!”)
Scrabble pieces & faded books make delightfully unexpected additions to each place setting.
Exquisitely done, Jillian, & congrats to Christina & Mark on a beautiful start to their marriage. And thanks to all for the inspiring designs & total originality. And thanks to these images, I’ve definitely added Iceland to my wish-list of vacay spots…
