I came across this unique peacock wedding cake on San Francisco Style Unveiled, and it got me thinking about how gorgeous peacock feathers are and how lovely they can be as wedding inspiration.

Whether you use actual feathers as centerpieces or cake decor, or you simply borrow the bold colors of the peacock for your celebration, I love the idea of incorporating this elegant theme into your wedding.

When I was a little girl, I spent endless hours daydreaming as a practiced my signature with the last name of my latest crush.  I also avoided writing class notes while I doodled my future initials into a notebook.  I don’t know why, but there is something about sharing a man’s initials that sets some girls over the moon. Perhaps that’s why monograms remain a classic wedding decor element.

If you’re looking for the perfect way to put the stamp of your new initials on your wedding, check out some of these ideas below:
