Winter Wedding Obsessions: Balsa Wood and Pine Cones
Tue, Jan 26, 2010
There’s nothing more convenient than non-floral alternatives for winter weddings, specially if you live in areas with harsh winters. Their rustic look easily lends a vintage feel when combined with millinery flowers or other vintage inspired elements, all of which makes for the perfect vintage winter wedding decor.
