For what seems like centuries, every year on February 14th dearly beloveds gather together and celebrate with chocolates, long awaited flowers, and gifts. Whether the celebration be fancy dinners or urban studio picnics, we all take a minute to remember the ones we love and shower them with those thoughts. This is what I love about Valentines day, and as I got to thinking, what came into focus were the many similarities that Valentines day has to Weddings. Some intimate gatherings, some extravagant affairs, but whatever the budget, whatever the size and wherever the place, weddings resemble the union of those dear to each other's hearts. So, why not incorporate a valentines theme to a February wedding soiree-- after all, a blessing from St. Valentine on your special day might be just the magic you need as you embark upon your life together!
Swoonworthy table scape incorporates vintage china & a touch of a valentine theme. Notice the wooden runner (LOVE) and the small votive candles following down the center of the table.
Wedding day valentine guest book. Put an album together for each guest to write a valentine to the bride and groom and slip it in an envelope inside the book. What an endearing treasure for the couple to take with them from their wedding day! Also--Such a wonderful play on the increasingly popular and delicious macaroons for wedding day treats!

| One thing I love about winter weddings, is the addition of a shawl to the bride & bridesmaids ensemble for the day. What a gorgeous touch! |
