Pulling off the Circus Theme at our Wedding

It’s been great fun blogging and I really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to read the blogs, post a comment or vote for me. In this final blog, I want to share the details that made our circus wedding come alive. I can definitely say that I’ve had my dream wedding in every way imaginable.

The Save the Dates–We gave a hint of what was to come by using a double trapeze shot of us on the “Save the Dates.”

The Invitations–The invitations were designed like a ticket, good for admission to our “Cirque D’Amour.”

I hope to inspire your planning, spark some creativity and show that even those of you planning traditional weddings can have some “alternative” details. An alternative wedding is not about throwing all tradition out the window, but feeling free to change the traditions to represent you better. Read the rest of this entry »

Circus Celebration

Posted September 16th, 2009 | 6:00 am | By Heather Kentner | 12 Comments

My life is filled with circus, vegan cupcakes and love. It is far from ordinary and I want my wedding day to be the same. I’m entering the Alternative category because I’m pretty sure our wedding will be far from usual.

My fiancé and I met at the circus training space. Since then, we’ve fallen in love, created circus acts together and opened up an aerial, acrobatic and fitness studio by the name of Cirque-ability. Read the rest of this entry »
