A Wedding Bouquet - Made of Rocks?

This wedding bouquet was part of a geologically inspired wedding. I'll bet you haven't heard that one before! The wedding was recently featured on Style Me Pretty and has to be one of the more creative examples of a wedding theme I have seen. Here's what they said about the bouquet:

Amanda worked with Krislyn Design in Los Angeles to create her custom bouquet ~ containing pieces of coral, balsa wood flowers, Barite Rose and crystals.

At first glance you would never know that the bouquet wasn't made of real flowers. It just goes to show that you don't have to use flowers at a wedding to make an impact.

Love Birds Wedding Cake of the Day

The white love birds on this wedding cake are so adorable.  Look closely. I think one of them has a little crown - presumably the bride. 

The other thing that's so brilliant here is the way they put a pair of desserts on separate little porcelain boats around the cake. Beautiful decoration and ready to serve.
