Renewal Inspirations – Succulent love.

To catch up on my renewal planning adventure check in here, here, here, here and here!  The hubby and I just booked out flight  for a trip to Las Vegas and Zion next month.  Our first stop will be in Vegas for the much anticipated Engage!09: The Encore.  We then head to Springdale, UT for 4 days in Zion National Park.    I cannot wait to choose our ceremony location and stop in at the Bit and Spur to plan our post-ceremony celebration meal!

I adore succulents.  Since last year, these lovelies have been popping up here, there and everywhere in weddings.  It is no surprise since these tiny little plants pack a lot of color and texture punch.  The renewal is months away but I am already thinking about favors for our guests.  Succulents could be perfect.  I just love the tin container below that doubles as a seating card.   Last weekend I picked up a bunch of these Depression sherbet glasses.  Can you imagine a succulent bloom planted in each one – such a sweet little favor!

So now I am thinking decor…
Cool blue/green shades mingle magically with bold fuchsia in the bouquet above from a fabulous succulent post on Green Wedding Shoes.   Our celebration location boasts a gorgeous wrap around porch with two large entry doors.  A pair of these succulent wreaths may be the perfect detail!

So how do you feel about succulents?
