Botanical Wedding Ideas + Happy Weekend!

Looks like this week was vintage botanical inspired weddings all around! The combination of moss, glass bottles and kraft paper has such a charming scientist-esque mood. First up is this modern chic wedding shot by Tea Ho of Dreambox Photography. How genius is the idea of using lightbulbs as miniature terrariums for place cards (that doubled as amazing favors!)? The lightbulb place cards, by the way, were a DIY project set up by the bridal party!

    Oh man. I was planning on doing the same thing, but in half pint jars. The bulbs look wonderful, though.

    Those terrariums could possibly be the loveliest eco-favor ever.

    @Erica – the light bulb placecards look like they have little clear plastic rubber feet attached to the bottom. Look at the 3rd picture down from the top, you can sort of see them under there.

    Do you know where they got the lightbulbs? Or if they are just normal bulbs that they painted the base black? would LOVE to do this idea!
