Today we start our series of Inspired by You contest posts! We will be posting one every Friday for the next three weeks and each post will have the opportunity to generate as many comments as it can in a week before the next post goes live. The person with the most comments at the end wins the big prizes from Cupcakes Couture, Custom Programs, and Wedding Chicks!
Our first of the top 3 chosen is “Inspired by Libraries and Books” submitted by Jessica. I love love love old books and was thrilled to hear this inspires other people too! One of my favorite flea market finds are antique books, they have so much character and certainly bring that when added to wedding decor! See some of our favorite ways weddings are inspired by books and libraries!

SO CUTE!! i love when vintage books are used as centerpieces!
I love this!! It’s so unique. I’ve always wanted to incorporate my love of books into my wedding one day but haven’t really seen it done well yet. It’s so beautiful!!
This is a wonderful idea! I’m a teacher & antique book collector and I just love seeing books everywhere!
I love this idea, I have a love affair with old books and the bookshelves to prove it. There is just something wonderful about incorporating books into a wedding!
love the vintage sophistication of this idea!
The vintage books are a great idea.

Thanks for the inspiration Jessica! I’m planning on using vintage books in my centerpieces.

Love
Love it! Vintage is great. Books are great. Vintage books, even better!
Love the idea!!! So creative!
What a beautiful idea!! Absolutely love it!!
LOVE this! absolutely beautiful! I love the smell of old books, the color of the paper… what a great idea!
I really like the centerpiece using a book as the table marker and the antique looking cake. The use of maps as a base was a nice touch, too.
Books and maps give such a warm and familiar feel to an already intimate setting. i love the fact you could pick it up and chit chat at the table with the other guests. instant conversations…
Awesome idea, so chic!
What a neat idea- making a modern statement with something nostalgic and friendly. Creates a warm and inviting atmosphere at the table.
This is stunning!!! I wish I could get married again and use this idea!
