Here at Wedding and Party Network we want to give you inspiration for your wedding photos. So, here are some of our favorite ideas for a winter wedding. You can incorporate all the elements of this season into your wedding to make it truly a winter wonderland. The snow, soft lighting and beautiful colors are all things to think about during this season. Winter weddings are simply amazing!

A winter wedding is the time to break out gorgeous blues and winter whites. Soft candle light, creams, whites, blues or even jewel tones are great for this type of wedding. It's all about elegance. Your wedding cakes should represent this, beautiful, soft wedding bouquets and shrugs should all be apart of your wedding. Winter is a great time for a wedding, so get inspired by the photos above.

Here at Wedding and Party Network we want to give you inspiration for your wedding photos. So, here are some of our favorite "Inner-Child" Groomsmen pictures to do just that. Every groomsmen loves showing off their fun personality in photos, instead of being serious. So, have your wedding photographer capture their inner-playfulness for some great wedding photos.

Every woman looks forward to her wedding day, that wonderful day that every bride dreams of with her perfect dress, gorgeous jewelry, fabulous hair and magical details. But, what about the groom and his groomsmen? Of course they look forward to the special day, the day they can call their special someone 'theirs'.  Let's face it, we all know that the inner-child in most men is hiding inside, aside from focusing on marrying the love of their life. Fun, anxious and ready for adventure are in all of them. Now, we expect them to stand still and act like a grown man on his special day, but all day? No way! There is one way that we can really let their true character shine through, that is, of course, if they promise to behave the rest of the day! This is by letting your groom and his friends make their pictures come alive! Playing up their likes, showing off their hobbies or just being plain old goofy you will make your groom's day that much better!

This week, Wedding and Party Network's Inspirational Friday is all about sunflowers! An Autumn wedding is the perfect atmosphere for sunflowers. The warm yellows, and big dark centers, thick sturdy stalks, and over-all 'Sunnyness' that brings elegance and charm make it hard to resist!

These fabulous wedding flowers are perfect for your happy fall wedding. An outdoor wedding is ideal, especially one in an open field, garden, or park. The feel of nature is calming, down-to-earth and inspiring. You can use these energetic flowers alone or with other flowers to create eye-popping arrangements. Marigolds, gerbera daisies, roses and hydrangea look gorgeous mixed with sunflowers. Any combination is ideal for your wedding bouquet, wedding ceremony arrangements and definitely your reception centerpieces.  The key is to keep the arrangements simple – sunflowers are striking and demand attention, you don't need to do much to make these flowers look great!

Every Friday, Wedding and Party Network will be choosing a theme or color and give you inspirational photos. So, our inspirational board will give everyone inspiration on wedding cake toppers! Wedding cake toppers represent your wedding and show off your personality. Plus, there are so many & creative things to add on top of your wedding cake. Here are some fun ideas to get your creative juices flowing.

Not all cakes are created equal. There are no rules to follow when creating your unique wedding cake. Yes, you want your cake to be unique and special – just like you!  Generally speaking, you should order your wedding cake 4 – 6 months in advance and take your time when shopping  for the perfect baker. There are many aspects to consider before making your final decision. Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of your reception. So, make sure it screams out who you are and have fun with it. Your cake can be loud and bright, or soft and elegant.

 When you are designing your wedding cake you will decide on the design, size and number of tiers, the flavor and filling, type of frosting, accents and details and finally the topper. If you decide on a more traditional and elegant style and design for your cake, you can still have a creative and edgy personalized topper. Why not put a touch of humor, spunk or creativity on top?

So, take a look and we hope to give you a bit of inspiration when planning your wedding or party. Our inspirational board will give everyone inspiration on wedding gowns! 2011 wedding gowns have taken a turn for the botanical gardens. Capturing the delicateness of the flower petals and elegance of chiffon in every detail, fall 2011 wedding gowns are truly blooming!

Between Vera Wang, Prina Tornai, Rivini, Watters & Watters and more, the fall 2011 wedding gown catwalks were covered in blooms, blossoms and buds, over-sized cabbage roses, silk petals and lace. Each dress taking a new spin on the essence of flowers. Not only is the bride carrying flowers, but now she is wearing them in an elegant and romantic new way. The look for fall 2011 is  form-fitting bodices, defined waists and voluptuous skirts. Tulle, chiffon, light weight taffeta and organza flow seamlessly down the bodice of each gown. The look is airy, sheer and delicate with special attention to details.

Another big influence on the cat walk is chic head wear. Brides are clad in sparkling tiaras, headbands with super-sized chiffon flowers, half veils and eccentric hats. A vintage shape with luxe textures such as lace, feathers, and beads hug the brides curves as they seem to float down the aisle. Now, it's your turn to embrace the beauty and elegance of this Fall fashion trend with your very own botanical inspired wedding gown.

Every Friday, Wedding and Party Network will be choosing a theme or color and give you inspirational photos. We want to help give you inspiration for your next event, wedding or party. So, take a look and we hope to give you a bit of inspiration when planning your wedding or party. Our inspirational board will give everyone inspiration on rainbow weddings! Who doesn't love a rainbow? Your wedding day is a day to celebrate the bond between you and your spouse. A day to celebrate your new journey together. So, what better way than to include vibrant colors to express your happiness? Between the invitations, food, decor, cake and clothing – you can arrange for a multi-faceted, one-of-a-kind wedding that reflects you and your bright personality.

Here are some great ideas to turn your Fall Wedding into a rainbow of delight.

Meshing together different colors can easily get out of hand, but knowing just the right amount can turn an average wedding into something your guests will never forget! You don't have to use every color in the rainbow, you can choose three or four colors, bright and vibrant colors. Then, just run with it.

Invitations: You will want your wedding invitations to look a little bohemian, with lightly muted, yet vibrant colors. Alternate the color of the writing with the color of the patterns and find a subtle but exciting in-between.

The Dress: You want your wedding dress magical for your perfect day. So, find a beautiful white or off-white dress and accent it with one of the colors from your scheme. A bright scarf around your waist, rainbow feathered hair clips, bright nail polish or beautiful rainbow jewelry will add just the right amount of flair. A bright pair of shoes will look fabulous peeking out from under your dress.

Bridesmaids and Groomsmen: Different color dresses will look great when matching the groomsmen ties or suspenders! Multi-colored sunglasses will add a nice touch for the groomsmen as well.

Flowers: Your flowers will tie everything together, especially when using all the colors from your theme. You can create lavish and vibrant centerpieces and wedding bouquets that will leave everyone with a smile.

Reception: If you are having an indoor reception, you can use different colored lights for the dance floor or have them shining on the walls to create a fun and bright atmosphere.

Menu: When choosing your rainbow menu, use brightly colored foods. Your desert and appetizers can include fresh fruit or a serve yourself candy buffet.

The Cake: If a rainbow cake is too much for you, you can create a beautiful and traditional wedding cake. However, the key will be to dye the inside of the cake with your wedding colors. No one will see the rainbow inside until you cut the first piece.

Music: A great version of Some Where Over The Rainbow will bring everything together.

Butterfly Release: Top it all off with a butterfly release. Release beautiful, bright, and vibrant colored butterflies to represent a new beginning for the happy couple.

Special thank you to nattywoohoo, james p wells, dalboz17, manue_aka_crazeecrafteez, jiggs images, ex.libres, concubine, conner keller, janierry, and jj_judes for their inspiring rainbow photos via Flickr.
