Superman – Friday: A Day of Wedding Inspiration

Image
HAPPY FRIDAY!! and TGIF! Were still plugging along with our Superhero Mini-Series ! This week… the man of all men Superman! A true all American… so of course we had to have some blue, red and white inspiration. But we also incorporated some classic elegance because Clark Kent is a true gentleman which inspires that classic era but you do have include a modern touch. We also added some sweet tea.. truly American.. (can’t you picture Clark Kent working at the farm stopping for some sweet iced tea?)… but we added a twist by finding a iced hibiscus sweet tea recipe for that modern touch but also for the red colour. I hope you like our take on a Superman wedding. Be sure to see our other Superhero Inspiration Fridays hear . As always photo credits are below.

The Hulk – Friday: A Day of Wedding Inspiration

Happy Friday! Were back with more of our Superhero Mini-Series ! This week ‘The Hulk’. Now I now some of my readers checked out the newest Avengers movie right?? My favourite character had to be Hulk. Mark Ruffalo did an amazing job. So it got me thinking about how I would transform the split personality of the shy but brilliant scientist with the rugged but sweet monster hulk. Well…. I added a little science, a lot of green, and some extra rugged nature on top. This is also a great way to combine the two personalities of the couple getting married. Take a little bit of each and something you both love… make the thing you both love the most prominent (like green in the hulk inspiration below) then add in hints of the thing you each like separately (like science and ruggedness below). This allows both of your visions and personalities to shine through on your wedding day. Hope you enjoy or Hulk inspiration below.. and if your missed the first Superhero Mini-series post last week ch
