The ceremony and reception will be held at The Abernethy Center in Oregon City, OR
This is the gazebo under which we will say our vows. We plan on using a sheer fabric just like the one in this photo to decorate the gazebo and it will be tied off with royal blue ribbon and a peacock feather on each side.
Going up the aisles we will also drape fabric using Shepard's hooks and hang a white and purple carnation pomander on each hook.
Abigail's Garden
This is the patio and tent where the reception will be held. We will have these paper lanterns strewn throughout the tent as well but they will be royal blue, purple and silver.
There will also be lawn games going on - bocce ball and cricket. I think this will make for some super cute photos!
Decor
Non-floral Centerpieces
Half of the tables will have cylinder vases filled with bulbs like these but in royal blue and silver (minus the feathers).
Floral Centerpieces
The other half of the tables will look similar to this. I found skinny royal blue vase and want to put a big poof of white flowers on top - I'm leaning towards hydrangeas. I'm also planning on draping a string of pearls around the vase.
Half of the tables will have royal blue runners...
And the other half will have silver runners...
We're all about the balancing of colors.

I found these sparkly, silver curly willow branches and I'm thinking of sticking a few in with the carnations...possibly the bulbs as well? I'd also like to incorporate one or two peacock feathers in with the centerpieces but I don't know how busy it will all look when put together. I will have to wait until I make a mock-up of the centerpieces to decide. I'll post a picture of it and ask for a vote :)
