Da dum….da dum….da dum..da dum..da dum da dum da dum da dum…….Inspiration Board Friday!!!

Those of you who are fans of Shark Week on the Discovery Channel anxiously await these 7 days all year long!!  You watch in awed fascination at the beauty and strength of these prehistoric creatures that prowl the depths.  You peek through slit fingers that cover your eyes at the gory parts.  You dream of becoming the next Jacques Cousteau sailing the open ocean eager to learn the facts and mysteries that the deep blue holds.   And some of you love it so much, you might as well make it part of your wedding!! 

The fascination of sharks lies with the adrenaline rush we all receive when we even hear a whisper of the word Great White.  Your wedding day should have that same adrenaline rush!  Endorphins fill you with tingles from head to toe, your skin burns red hot, you’re ready for the biggest plunge of your life!

Let your wedding day bring on this rush!!  Filled with emotion, wonder, and awe, a Shark Week inspired wedding will let the bride, the groom, and all the guests in attendance fall in love with the open seas.  Hold your chic shark soiree at a local aquarium next to their exhilarating exhibit.  Utilize succulents in both your bouquet and the centerpieces.  These flowers can appear as though they were plucked right off the bottom of a coral reef.  Bring in multiple grey tones to mimic the sandpaper skin of our toothy friends.  Wear a mermaid shaped dress that features wave action ruching.  And to sweeten up the night, delight your guests with a meringue covered wedding cake that showcases pointed peaks to look like teeth! 

Sink your teeth into Shark Week and Enjoy!!!
