Ways to Personalize Your Wedding

As I gather photos for my brother's upcoming wedding, I'm reminded of an earlier post that presented ways to personalize your wedding.    Looking at the photos of our parents (who have passed away) and my brother as a child fills me with such emotion that I have to fight back tears.   My sister-in-law-to-be plans to frame the photos and display them surrounded by flowers on a designated table at the reception.   Based on my early emotional reaction, I must say that this has to be one of the most endearing ways to add a personal touch to a wedding.

Well, it seems that my family member decided against a pastel wedding color palette and is instead opting for a classic black and white wedding color palette.    She's still, however, thinking of mixing in a bit of a pastel color.   The following boards should provide inspiration for pulling it all together.
