My new obsession...


My poor FI is going to divorce me before we're even married if I keep looking at wedding porn and getting new ideas. My new obsession is with chuppahs.

A chuppah (also spelled hupah, chupah, or chuppa - plural: chuppot or chuppahs, Hebrew: חוּפּוֹת) is a canopy traditionally used in Jewish Weddings. It consists of a cloth or sheet, stretched or supported over four poles, or sometimes carried by attendants to the ceremony. A chuppah symbolizes the home the couple will build together. Chuppah literally means a canopy or a covering.

How beautiful is that symbolism? Even more of a reason to want one...

It seems simple enough to build and I'd definitely be making the decor a DIY project. I love the look of the hanging crystals and orchids.

As usual though transporting this baby to Islamorada is going to be a nightmare.

I have go to put down all this wedding porn.

I don't think I've shared my DIY aisle decor on my blog yet so here it is... Please keep in mind I really just out these together in five minutes so hopefully they'll look much better the day of.
