Matryoshka Dolls & Fortune Cookies

They wanted to represent BOTH of their cultures.  So what else would we do other than Matryoshka dolls, paper fortune cookies, all wrapped up in a gradient pink hue?  Duh!  We brought in lots of fur in the table runners, and the ceremony aisle runner.  The amazing Russian Matryoshka dolls stood at attention down the aisle as well, and witnessed the touching nuptials.  We layered the place settings in 4 different shades of pink napkins.  Adorned each setting with a fuschia candy, showed the guests to their seats with a hand made paper fortune cookie, and backed the desserts with some feathers and glitter.  It all just made for the most adorable, quirky, and incredibly personal wedding ever!

    Not sure what I love more – this amazing wedding (are you kidding me with the paper fortune cookie, guest book, boas, little gift boxes, dolls, all of it! Shut up!) or your sweet Grandma’s comment. Makes my heart happy. Simply gorgeous.
