No Kids

I don't want any kids at the wedding. Babe's daughter and my little brother are enough for me. With that being the case, I was trying to figure out what I would use as an alternative to a ring bearer and a flower girl. I suppose since ring bearers don't really carry the rings that the Best Man and Maid of Honor would be in charge of that, as usual. But I want "Coming to America" flowers! lol. So, I saw this:

I think this is beautiful! BUT everyone would walk on it before me! That's not cool. I'll come up with something. This whole no kids thing is becoming harder than I thought!

The Pretty Stuff

I'm a very visual person! So, looking at the emptiness of my ceremony space really leaves room for my imagination. My coordinator will be handling all of my floral arrangements. Since I don't like columns, I didn't want floral arrangements sitting on top of columns. So, she'll be doing them a different way. I don't quite remember.... But I was thinking that the aisle could be decorated like this:

{Found here.}

I don't really want an aisle runner because I like the floor in the room. But I would love to have the rose petals and vases with the floating candles. I think that is so beautiful! The ceremony will be at 4pm, so it won't be dark outside, but the curtains will be closed. I think we should be able to dim the lights and make the candles work. My only problem is... where the heck am I gonna get some vases similar to those and who the heck is paying for them?! lol
