    I always wanted a backyard wedding...there is something to be said to be married in your family's home. Its so much more personal, warmer....but we always lived in apartments so I did the hotel thing...which ended up being fab. I hope to have a beautiful backyard for my daughter's wedding....if she wants it. These photos are all great inspirations.

      So true, especially in South Florida where Mother Nature is so fickle. Hallelujah for tents.
