Happy Monday, lovely friends! And what better way to start a Monday than with a bit of glitter? One of my favourite things in wedding design (okay, design in general) is the pairing of two unexpected elements - a chandelier in a tree, black tie in the bushveld, or - as we have here - sequins and sparkle with the classic of rustic flower design, the humble succulent. In fact, succulents have come a long way since they were associated exclusively with rustic weddings, and now you'll find them prettying up just about any style of celebration. So whether you're a rustic bride looking for a bit of sparkle, or a formal one looking for a softer natural touch, this is the perfect combination.
