I get so excited when brides want to share their wedding with me. I love seeing all the different ways a wedding can come together.  So when I posted a Facebook status asking brides to share their wedding day with me and Complete Music Video Photo’s newsletter and Candice Combs responded with a whole bunch of photos I couldn’t help but let out a squeal of excitement!

Candice and her now husband  Daniel Walker were married at Amber Springs in Montgomery, TX on January 6, 2012. Candice told me her wedding was very heavily a do-it-yourself wedding, and it is apparent that Candice is a really great DIY-er!

This is Candice and Daniel:

Their  reception hall, I love the lighting and all the wood work! Their colors were moss green and chocolate brown. I love it!

Candice made her own brooch bouquet she found all the brooches online and then put the bouquet together like a normal flower bouquet. Candice also told me that: ” It also saved me a lot of worry and hassle by not having to deal with real flowers.”

Her centerpieces…went well with her venue’s wood working and colors!

Moss covered letters!Oh yeah she made them herself!

And this is how her guests had to sign in….the FBI may come borrow this from them sometime! Thumbprint trees have really become a great new trend and such an awesome keepsake.

Instead of flowers, Candice made pomanders, and I love the bright look on the white chairs!

Their wedding date! Love this, they can have this in their home after the wedding as well!

Earthy tones, and woodland centerpieces made it a perfect not-so-winter, winter wedding that I really wish I could of attended. At least Complete Music was there as their DJ! (I may have to pick up a side job).

Thank you to Candice and Daniel for sharing their amazing wedding with me and everyone else!  Bride on the Rocks and Complete Music Video Photo wish you many years of happiness. And thank you to their photographer: Endless Exposures Photography who did all the photos you see in this post!

CHEERS!

Excitable would be the best word for me to use right now. I’m just so pumped that all the hard work that everyone has put into making this blog happen has actually come to fruition. So needless to say, I’ve sat here pondering for days what I was going to say that would “BLOW YOUR (wedding) MIND” That kind of thinking gets a girl nowhere, it’s what literally could put you on the proverbial rocks in which this blog was NOT named after. So let me just shoot straight from the hip and or throw out some more clichés that will stall the start of this blog…..

Starting blog post in 1.2.3.4……. You don’t need this blog. I’m not writing this blog for the girl that needs it. The girls that need it are the ones that have had their wedding planned since they were 2 and are as obsessed with everything wedding like me, they are junkies, and they need their wedding fix, so they need this blog, because God forbid they miss out on a wedding trend.

No this blog is for you, the girl that just got engaged and has not been planning her most important day for years. Because if you’re anything like how I used to be, I had no idea that you could get Hershey Kisses customized, you can have their banner say “just married” and if you take it a step further, you could take your engagement picture cut it out and paste it to the bottom of each kiss, and then BAM you’ve got your DIY party favor.

There were countless things I didn’t know, because not everyone get’s to have a wedding planner nor has the time (like I do now) to pour over everything wedding. So cheers to you, you’re not a wedding junkie; you’re a soon-to-be Bride on the Rocks.
