So yesterday Jon and I both went to check out another Oatlands wedding. It was actually really helpful, the person had some of the same colors as us! There was a very youthful feeling to the wedding, but it was also very mod -- they had black bridesmaid dresses and pink bouquets, which is kind of the same trend I am doing for my wedding (pewter dresses with black tulle rose sash and different shades of pink bouquet). There really is something about the neutral bridesmaid dress + colorful flowers idea that I just LOVE... little injections of color are a great way to keep a wedding uber formal and classy. Check out the pictures... you'll see that I am posting more from the gardens -- there is a reflecting pool and boxwood alley that I didn't showcase last time. Enjoy!Down near the aisle

My fiance!
In the boxwood alley
We'll do a photo walk down here during the cocktail hour
Really pretty reflecting pool at the end of the alley,
the aisle is right on the other side of the tea house (white arch)!
Down in the Rose Garden
Walking to the cocktail hour from the reflecting pool
This bride opted for a couple tables in the cocktail area
for older guests... I like this idea
Tables to mingle around... but with a ribbon (I also like :)
The open bar!
This is where the escort cards were (not set up yet)
the moss acts as an anchor to prevent the cards from flying away!
The bride's colors were pink, green, gold, and black!
What a DZ - ish wedding :)
This bride alternated between tall and short centerpieces.
I am doing all short centerpieces, but the tall ones are pretty glamorous!
Loose flowers on the tables
Seriously... was this girl a DZ?
Love her flowers!
Mine will be light pink, fuschia/bright pink, and burgundy
It was a square tent (last wedding was rectangular)
with a dance floor, looong rectangular table, then lots of circle tables near the entrance.
The bar was in the bottom right corner, with a sitting area (a must!).
Beautiful view of Loudoun County, VA!!
Oatlands greenery... cute little pine cones!
On the way out :)
